Happy International Vet Nurse Day! 🌟🐾🐶😻🌟

Today, we celebrate the incredible Vet Nurses and Technicians across our 25 clinics in Australia. These compassionate professionals are the heart and soul of our clinic operations, bringing not only their expertise but also their endless patience, empathy, and dedication to caring for every pet.

Vet Nurses are more than just caregivers—they are advocates, educators, and essential partners in every diagnosis and treatment plan. Their commitment to animal welfare is what keeps our clinics thriving and our patients happy and healthy.
Thank you to all our amazing Vet Nurses for your hard work, kindness, and love for animals. We appreciate everything you do!

It's that time of year again! Before picking up a baby bird and taking it to a vet (unless visibly injured) please check this flow chart or contact WIRES for advice.

To access 24/7 rescue advice and assistance for sick, injured and orphaned native animals call WIRES on 1300 094 737.

Prevention is imperative. Tick paralysis cases continue in our area. Speak to one of our HELPFUL staff today to ensure your pets' tick prevention needs are being met. Vigilant use of appropriate prevention may mean the difference between your pets life and death.

While this highlights some common plant toxins , it is by no means comprehensive

Before allowing your pet to have unsupervised access to all areas of your home, we recommend doing some research. Familiarise yourself with the potential toxins present around your home and garden.

If your pet happens to ingest any toxins please call the clinic immediately for advice.

Do not induce vomiting at home.

If recommended please bring your pet to the clinic as soon as possible.
