Pet Health Checks
Annual health checks are essential in keeping your pet happy and healthy. These visits ensure your pet is up-to-date with vaccines and illnesses are detected early. For senior dogs and cats, a bi-annual exam may be needed as pets age much more rapidly than humans and the earlier issues are caught, the more successful treatment is.
We offer vaccinations for a wide variety of species! Vaccinating your pet is fundamental in preventing life threatening illnesses and the spread of diseases. All of our vaccinations include an extensive health check by one of our Veterinarians who will also give professional advice on nutrition, weight, preventative treatment and tend to any other pre-existing health conditions that may be of concern. Vaccinations may vary depending on species or age so please speak to our team so we can advise you on what your pet may need.
Having your pet desexed is an important part of being a responsible pet owner and we believe that they generally live longer and healthier lives than those that are not. Desexing your pet has many health and behavioural benefits such as reducing the risks of cancers, unwanted litters, roaming, urine marking/spraying and dominance. We desex a range of species including dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and guinea pigs.
The most common worms that infect dogs and cats are Roundworm, Hookworm, Whipworm, Heartworm and Tapeworm. To control these worms, it is necessary to have a regular worming routine. Our friendly and expert veterinary staff and nurses are happy to provide advice about the best type of worming control for your pet.
Being situated in a beautiful area that is surrounded by bush and wildlife unfortunately comes with a large population of paralysis ticks. We have a wide range of flea and tick products to protect your pet. All of our staff have extensive knowledge and training on the different preventatives and can advise which one may best suit your pets’ lifestyle and needs. Remember, prevention is better than a cure. Ask us about our new 12 monthly preventative for fleas and ticks.
Cat and dogs must be legally microchipped before they are sold. It is extremely important that you ensure your pet is microchipped and that all the details are correct so that if that moment happens when your pet goes missing we can endeavour to return them home to you safe and sound.
We firmly believe that the right nutrition is vital to pets living longer, healthier lives. We have an extensive range of Hills Prescription Diets, Delicate Care and Prime 100 & our staff receive frequent training in keeping up to date on new advances in these diets.
