Services
Surgery
Our hospital performs a wide range of surgical procedures including desexing, lump removals, fracture repairs, and cruciate repairs. We utilise modern anaesthetic protocols and monitoring equipment to ensure patient safety. Our surgical team maintains connections with specialist referral centres for complex cases requiring advanced expertise.
Cat Boarding
Our purpose-built cattery provides air-conditioned accommodation with multiple room sizes for different needs. Trained veterinary nurses supervise all boarders, with premium food and bedding provided. We accommodate special dietary requirements and medication administration while maintaining strict hygiene standards through regular health checks.
Puppy Preschool
Certified instructor-led classes focus on socialisation, basic obedience, and owner-puppy relationship building. Sessions run weekly for four weeks with small groups to ensure individual attention. The program addresses toilet training, leadership skills, and safe socialisation during critical development periods using positive reinforcement techniques.
Free Dental Checks
Year-round complimentary dental examinations help identify oral health issues early. We perform comprehensive dental procedures including digital x-rays, scaling, and extractions. Our preventive approach addresses plaque and tartar buildup to maintain overall health through proper oral hygiene maintenance.
Vaccinations
We provide core vaccination programs for dogs, cats, and exotic pets with full physical examinations. Each consultation includes dental assessment, weight monitoring, and health discussions. Our protocols follow recommended schedules to protect against preventable diseases while maintaining vaccination records for boarding requirements.
