🍂🐾 ANOTHER MONTH DONE & DUSTED! 🐾🍂

And just like that… October is over! Where did that month go?! 😅

It’s been another busy month at Salamander Bay Vet Clinic, filled with wagging tails, curious cats, plenty of cuddles and, of course, lots of hard work from our amazing team. ❤️

A big thank you to all of our wonderful clients for trusting us with your beloved pets. We’re so lucky to be part of their lives and to watch them grow, heal and thrive. 🐶🐱🐰

Bring on November! 🌸🐾

🎃👻 KEEP YOUR PET SAFE FROM SPOOKY SEASON!

Halloween can be fun for us, but all the costumes, decorations, strange noises and unexpected visitors can be a little too spooky for our pets. 🐾

If your pet is easily frightened or anxious, help them feel safe this Halloween:

🕯️ Create a quiet, comfortable space away from the front door
🔊 Keep scary noises and loud music to a minimum
🚪 Make sure doors, gates and windows are secure
🎃 Keep decorations, candles and treats safely out of reach
💛 Let your pet hide or retreat if they’re feeling overwhelmed — never force them to interact

A little preparation can help keep Halloween fright-free for your furry family members. 🐶🐱

If your pet is prone to anxiety, speak with our veterinary team about ways we can help them feel more comfortable.

🐍⚠️ SNAKE SEASON REMINDER ⚠️🐍
With the weather warming up, our local snakes are becoming more active — and that means it’s time to take a little extra care with our pets.
🌿 Keep grass and yards well maintained
🐕 Keep dogs on a lead when walking through long grass or bushland
👀 Keep pets away from areas where snakes may be hiding
🐍 Never allow your pet to approach or investigate a snake
Most importantly, if you think your pet has been bitten by a snake, seek veterinary attention immediately.
Snake bites can be life-threatening, and early treatment is critical. Don't wait for symptoms to appear.
Stay safe this spring and keep a watchful eye on your four-legged family members! 🐾💚

☀️🐾 IS IT TOO HOT FOR A WALK?
Spring is here and the days are starting to warm up, but before heading out for a walk, remember that our pets feel the heat differently to us.

🔥 Hot pavement can burn paw pads
🔥 Dogs can overheat quickly, especially in warm or humid weather
🔥 Puppies, seniors, overweight pets and flat-faced breeds can be particularly vulnerable
Try walking early in the morning or later in the evening when temperatures are cooler, stick to shaded areas and always take water with you.

And remember — if the pavement feels too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for your pet’s paws. 🐾
🌅 Are you an early morning walker or an evening walker?

🐾 A little Toby cuddles make everything better! 🥰💗

Little Toby paid us a visit recently and completely stole our hearts! 🐶💕 Those puppy-dog eyes and endless fluff were just too cute to resist. 😍

Thanks for the cuddles, Toby 🐾💗

🦷🐾 DOES YOUR PET HAVE BAD BREATH?

A little bit of “doggy breath” or “cat breath” might seem normal, but persistent, bad breath can be a sign of dental disease.

Some signs to look out for include:
🦷 Bad breath
🦷 Red or swollen gums
🦷 Yellow/brown tartar
🦷 Difficulty chewing
🦷 Dropping food
🦷 Pawing at the mouth

Dental disease is one of the most common health problems we see in pets, and regular dental checks can help identify problems before they become more serious.
When was the last time you had a good look at your pet’s teeth? 👀🦷
If you’re concerned about your pet’s dental health, give our team a call on (02) 4982 7492. 🐾

Mental health matters. For our team. For our clients.

Veterinary care can come with emotional and challenging moments. Our teams support pets and their families through life’s highs and lows, and we know it can be an emotional experience for clients too.

This World Mental Health Day, we’re recognising the importance of looking after the people behind the pets.

It’s okay to have difficult days, ask for support and take a moment to look after yourself. 🐾
