Our Services

Yes — we see all breeds of dogs and cats, from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Great Danes, and from domestic shorthairs to Maine Coons. If your pet has breed-specific health concerns (such as brachycephalic issues in Bulldogs or Persians), our vets are experienced in managing these conditions.

Your vet will discuss all treatment options with you, including whether surgery is necessary, what the procedure involves, the expected recovery time, and the associated costs. We never recommend surgery unless it is the most appropriate option for your pet's health. You'll always have time to ask questions and make an informed decision.

All dogs in Australia should receive core vaccinations against distemper, hepatitis, and parvovirus (C3). Depending on your dog's lifestyle, we may also recommend kennel cough (Bordetella and parainfluenza) vaccination, which is required by most boarding kennels and groomers. We'll tailor a vaccination schedule to your dog's individual needs.

Core vaccinations for cats protect against feline herpesvirus, calicivirus, and panleukopenia (F3). For cats that go outdoors or live in multi-cat households, we may also recommend vaccination against feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). We'll discuss the right protocol for your cat's lifestyle.

We generally recommend desexing dogs and cats between 5 and 6 months of age, before they reach sexual maturity. However, for large and giant breed dogs, there is growing evidence that waiting until 12–18 months may be beneficial for musculoskeletal development. We'll discuss the best timing for your specific pet at their consultation.

For most surgical procedures, your pet will need to fast from midnight the night before (no food, but water is usually fine). We'll give you specific pre-operative instructions when you book. Please bring your pet in at the time we request, and plan to leave them with us for the day. We'll call you when they're ready to go home.
