Is it a teddy?!… No, It’s Romy! The cute as a button cavoodle that came in for her final puppy vaccination. She was the perfect puppy and was so distracted by the chicken treats she didn’t even flinch for her injection.

🔥 Heat wave warning ⚠️
Our dogs and cats are feeling the heat just as much, if not more than we are. The heat wave this week is particularly dangerous to dogs, and more specifically, our brachycephalics (pugs, bulldogs, French bulldogs, boxers, Boston terriers etc). Brachycephalic dogs really struggle to maintain a cooler body temperate such that this heatwave can be fatal to them if not inside in air-conditioning or a nice cool part of the house with good ventilation.
Make sure you have plenty of fresh water available. Keep your dogs (and cats) inside in air conditioning where possible and when the temperature is above 28 degrees, refrain from exercising your dog. Please also never leave them in the car, especially on these hot days!

We are having lots of baby birds handed into the clinic now that spring is in full swing and summer is just around the corner. This peculiar looking guy is a juvenile Bush Stone-Curlew. They are ground dwelling birds and you may have noticed them in residential areas, particularly near parks. You may be more familiar with their eerie, high-pitched wailing at night (rendered as a weer-lo).
Their young do not learn to fly until about 9 weeks of age so if you find a little guy like this out and about on the ground, don’t worry, he is meant to be there. Before bringing it in to a vet clinic, please look out for its parents. They usually share care of their young, so one or both might be around. Sometimes they can be hard to spot as they may sit as still as a stone, hence their name. However, they are usually protective of their young and will make their presence known.

There is now a yearly injection available for flea and tick prevention for dogs of mature weight and over 10 months of age. You read that correctly - YEARLY flea and tick prevention.
