Look at this gorgeous little baby wombat! 🥹❤️

Last week, this tiny girl came into our care after her mum was tragically hit and killed on the side of the road. Thankfully, some incredibly thoughtful people stopped to check mum’s pouch and discovered this beautiful little surprise inside.

Weighing just 290 grams, she was thankfully uninjured. After being carefully assessed by one of our veterinarians, she was reported to WIRES, and we were able to help find a wonderful local wildlife carer in the Derwent Valley to take over her care.

Our team couldn’t resist giving her a name – meet Crumpet!

Fast forward one week, and we’re delighted to report that Crumpet is growing, feeding well and settling into care beautifully.

A huge thank you to the kind people who stopped to check mum’s pouch, our veterinary team and the wonderful local wildlife carers who give little ones like Crumpet a second chance.

Sometimes the smallest patients have the biggest impact on our hearts. ❤️

Old colleagues, new collaboration! 🐾

Today, we had the pleasure of welcoming Dr Rhianna Booth from Proven Paws Reproductive & Mobile Veterinary Service to our clinic, bringing along her patient, Audri, to utilise our theatre facilities for a BOAS procedure.

But this visit was extra special! Dr Rhianna previously worked alongside our very own Dan (Regional Manager) and Allison (Practice Manager) pictured here at Montrose Veterinary Centre nearly 19 years ago! How amazing to see old colleagues reconnecting and working together again.

BOAS (Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome) is a condition commonly seen in flat-faced breeds, such as French Bulldogs, Pugs and Bulldogs. Their shortened facial structure can cause narrowed nostrils and restricted airways, making breathing difficult. BOAS surgery aims to improve airflow, helping affected dogs breathe more comfortably and enjoy a better quality of life.

We’re delighted to report that Audri’s procedure was successful! It’s fantastic to see veterinary businesses working collaboratively, sharing facilities and expertise to achieve the best possible outcomes for our patients.

A big thank you to Dr Rhianna and the Proven Paws team for working with us, and we wish Audri all the best with recovery!
