Meet Frankie! 🐾

This tiny little Italian Greyhound came in for his vaccination and was quite possibly the cutest little patient we’ve had in our hands! 🥹

Frankie was so teeny, he practically fit in the palm of our hands. 🥰

Safe to say, we were all a little bit obsessed! 💚

Congratulations to Natasha! Tash received the award for ‘2026 Nurse Mentor of the Year’. We are incredibly proud of her for this well deserved achievement. She is an integral part of Greencross Caloundra and the team would be lost without her!

Bird flu is making headlines, so Better Homes & Gardens asked Greencross Vets what it means for our pets.

Greencross Vets veterinarian Dr Nina shares practical advice to help pet parents understand the risks and take simple precautions.

“Bird flu can infect all mammals, so dogs, cats, rabbits and ferrets can all be infected.”

From avoiding contact with sick or dead wildlife to keeping cats indoors and dogs on a leash around wildlife, a few simple steps can help reduce exposure.

The best things really do come in pairs! From matching outfits to matching dental procedures Ace and Zero went through it all together. 🐾🥺

Ziggy came in for his castrate last week! 🐶💙 He was just too cute to resist, so naturally, he spent most of the day getting cuddles from the team! 🥰

🖤 A majestic visitor who never should have needed a trip to the vet.

This beautiful black swan was found with a fishing hook stuck in its mouth - a painful and completely preventable injury caused by discarded fishing gear.

Removing the hook required a general anaesthetic, along with pain relief to keep this feathered patient comfortable while we treated them. 🦢

A reminder to all anglers: please take your fishing line, hooks and tackle home with you or use a designated disposal bin. The Victorian Fisheries Authority advises that old fishing line should be placed in bins, or if there are no bins available, taken home, cut up and disposed of in general waste. Their Seal the Loop program also provides dedicated bins for unwanted fishing line, hooks, netting and rope. (VFA)

Discarded fishing gear can cause entanglement, injury and even death to wildlife. A few extra seconds to dispose of your gear properly can make a huge difference. 💔

🎣 Fish responsibly. Dispose responsibly. Protect our wildlife. A big thanks for the wildlife careers for bringing this amazing swan in and thanks to our team for helping 🫶🏼

Pepsi is in her 🌟 Brave Girl Era 🌟

She was so brave after her desexing procedure recently that she received a hand drawn Bravery Certificate! Here she is pictured with Nurse Caitie having some post surgery cuddles 🥰

🐾✨ Stella’s surgery success! ✨🐾

Sweet 11-year-old Stella recently underwent an emergency cystotomy with us to remove bladder stones. 🩺💗

After her procedure and a little time to recover, Stella is now doing amazingly well so far and almost back to being her happy self! 🥰🐶

We’re so pleased to see this beautiful girl feeling comfortable and healthy again. 💕

Not only do our wonderful vets & nurses care for our pets during their regular working week, but also those special few that put their hand up to volunteer. 👋

They use up their own annual leave and dedicate their precious time so they can work long hours in challenging conditions.
It can be messy, hot, exhausting and sometimes very sad.

These animal angels provide crucial support to struggling animal welfare groups, and most importantly the animals whose health and happiness depend on them.

Nurse Alisha from Greencross Tweed Heads just spent a week on Thursday Island, from desexing, amputations and everything in between.

Losing a pet is a devastating feeling😢

Microchipping your pet significantly increases the likelihood of reuniting with your furry friend! 🐕🐈

A microchip is an implant about the size of a grain of rice and is implanted at the base of the pet's neck. A microchip does not function like a tracking device. However, it does allow your local vet or council to scan the chip and find your contact information so you can reunite with your pet 🐾

It's very important to keep your pet's microchip information up to date with a valid phone number so we can contact you . You can do this by contacting your local council.

It's Veterinary Nurse Awareness month
🩺🐾

If you don’t know already, we do many things!
From taking the call to book in a client, triaging emergencies, admits, venepuncture and IV catheterisation, monitoring anaesthesia, performing diagnostic tests, preparing medication, and discharging patients back to their owners. And don't forget the endless cleaning, washing & p**p pick up.💩

Some of us are practice managers, senior nurses, or specialists. Some of us work with wildlife, some at your local veterinary clinic. Some of us work in education, cultivating the next generation of nurses, and some work in the charity sector or research. Some days are fun and rewarding, and some days are challenging & emotional 💔
We work long hours, and we work weekends. We are compassionate but also a voice for all animals. We have a wide range of skills, switching between many different roles during the day. We work hard and love what we do💚

A massive shout out to Dr Ana and Nurse Abby, who recently spent a week in Vanuatu spreading their knowledge and love 💚💚

A lot of hard work has been done by the successful combined team of Sam's Animal Welfare Association and Vets Beyond Borders at our pop-up clinic in Pango Vanuatu 🇻🇺
The official tally of animals desexed this week, and receiving treatments was 122. That's an average of 20+ animals a day. Fantastic work by fantastic humans🥰
