Pre-Anaesthetic Blood Test

We will perform a full physical examination on your pet before administering the anaesthesia. However, there are inherent risks to surgery and this is why we highly recommend a pre-anaesthetic blood test to be performed. This can reduce the risk and help us rule out any pre-existing internal problems that may not be evident physically, but could lead to serious complications.

Vaccination

Vaccinating your pet is the best and least costly way of preventing disease. A healthy pet, with a healthy immune system uses vaccine antibodies to help their body fight against some viruses and bacteria that cause disease.
It is important that your pet continues to receive booster vaccinations periodically to keep their immune systems protected over their lifetime.

Microchip

A microchip is a permanent method of electronic identification. The microchip is about the size of a grain of rice and is implanted under the skin between your pet’s shoulder blades. The microchip has a unique number that is then registered to you through a microchip database registry.


Should your pet become lost and be taken to a vet clinic, animal shelter or local council, they will be scanned for a microchip and they will contact you using your registered details.

Intestinal Worming

Intestinal worms love to live inside our pet’s tummies! They can be infected by drinking contaminated water, coming into contact with infected animals or their faeces, eating meat and swallowing fleas. By providing your pet with adequate treatment, you can stop parasite life cycles which can protect other pets and yourself from becoming infected.


Cost: from $10

Flea Protection

Even if you are travelling without your canine to places which potential host a tick population, it is vital to keep your animal up to date with tick prevention medication as ticks can travel from humans to animals. When travelling with your canine, it is especially important to physically check your dog twice each day to ensure there are no ticks present. 

The key to keeping these nasties out of your house and off your pet is to ensure that your pet is protected at all times.
