CANINE COUGH AT CHRISTMAS
Summer is peak season for Canine Cough and Upper Respiratory Tract infections in our
dogs due to more playing/socialising in the park, boarding and generally enjoying the holi-
days. Canine cough is a contagious disease that spreads through shared water bowls, so-
cialisation with other dogs or via airborne transmission. Canine cough is caused by bacte-
rial or viral infection with a hacking cough as the main characteristic symptom. Some dogs
can also show fever, lethargy, vomiting froth and a reduced appetite. Treatment is often
very effective although the disease may take some time to completely resolve.
Fortunately, it is easy to protect dogs against the more serious forms of the condition and reduce the severity of
the Canine cough through an annual vaccination. We highly recommend yearly vaccination against Canine
cough.
If you are unsure if your dog is up to date with vaccinations, please contact the clinic on 9528 2525.
APPOINTMENTS FOR GROOMING
With the warmer weather upon us, many pet owners are increasing the frequency of groom-
ing and washing. We groom and wash pets every weekday and appointments are filling up
quickly. If you would like us to care for your pets coat, please call and book early to ensure
it is done on your preferred date.
AVAILABILITY FOR CAT BOARDING
Our cat boarding is a very popular and sought after service. While some days
are completely booked, some places are still available. Please contact the
clinic on 9528 2525 for enquiries and booking. To secure a boarding place,
early booking is essential.

SENIOR PET EMAIL SERIES
Our senior email series has been extremely popular! Many people with senior and adult
pets have been taking advantage of it and learning what to expect and how to prepare for
an elderly pet. If you have missed out on the series, please email the clinic at
[email protected] for copies. We generally email it out twice a week, so
the series will go for approximately 5 weeks.
