Meet Moose! This handsome boy is a Rhodesian Ridgeback and such a beautiful boy, inside and out!

He is currently seeing me to manage intermittent back and hindleg pain. I am happy to say that he is feeling pretty good at the moment! 🎉🐾😊🐶

Hi!

As we are looking down the barrel of 35- 40 + degree days next week, I thought it would be timely to remind all my clients of my summer bushfire policy

If a day is declared as "extreme" or "catastrophic", all my appointments are automatically cancelled, whether they are on properties, or at one of my small animal clinics.
I will attempt to contact everyone in advance to confirm this, but even if you don't hear from me, the appointment will be cancelled

In addition to this, days with a temperature of over 35 degrees may have appointments postponed to cooler days, especially those where I am working outside.
As always, any clients that are concerned about the temperature or weather in general, and wish to reschedule, can contact me in advance to discuss

Wishing all my clients, past & present, a safe and happy summer 🐾🐎🥰

Well, I didn't have a donkey or sheep in a stable, but I did have a goat in the clinic!

Chaos closed his eyes and relaxed back as he had a chiropractic treatment and taping applied, following the removal of his leg cast.
He fractured his right foreleg around 8 weeks ago. It has healed well, but now the soft tissue damage needs support to heal

I do hope this is true - and all other countries look at what they can do ( if not a full ban, then maybe a move to laser shows or silent fireworks) Tradition should not stop progress in animal welfare issues!

Please help if you can 🐾

Do you have bedding or dog coats you no longer need? Nillumbik Regional Pound is calling out for small blankets, towels, dog coats or small padded bedding to help keep animals warm at night. 🐕

If you have any spare items you would like to donate to keep our furry friends comfortable, you can drop them off to the Nillumbik Operation Centre office, 290 Yan Yean Rd, Plenty, which is attended on Monday and Friday 8.30am- 4.30pm.

Please note staff cannot accept doonas, heavy blankets or woollen materials.

Thank you from the pound staff and the pets they look after! 🐶
