Pet ownership is an incredibly rewarding journey. But along with the joy comes inevitable headaches and heartaches. From their first days in the world to a peaceful ending, we’re here for you every moment.
We view pet health as an interconnected web between us, you, and your pets. One where we respect the human-animal bond, where our care and empathy extends beyond our patient to you as an owner.
A relationship where we share the responsibility to work together respectfully, working hard to get the best outcome for you and your pet.

Helpful resources to keep your dog or cat happy and healthy.
It’s essential to know the difference between situations that need immediate veterinary care, and those where you can wait at home.
As a new kitten owner, one of the most important steps in giving them a healthy start to life is the right vaccinations.
You’ve brought home your new best friend – congratulations! Now it’s time to make sure your new puppy receives the right vaccinations.

Aural Haematomas in Pets 🐾👂
Have you noticed your pet’s ear suddenly looking swollen, puffy or like a little balloon?
It could be an aural haematoma — a pocket of blood that forms inside the ear flap, often after vigorous head shaking, trauma or scratching.
Common signs include:
🐶 A swollen, soft or firm ear flap
🐱 Frequent head shaking or scratching
👂 Redness, warmth or tenderness
😟 Discomfort when the ear is touched
Aural haematomas are often associated with an underlying ear problem, such as an ear infection, allergies, parasites or irritation. Treating the underlying cause is important to help prevent the problem from returning.
❌ Don’t try to drain the swelling at home.
If you notice a swollen ear, book an appointment with your veterinarian so they can examine the ear and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
Early attention can help keep your pet more comfortable and reduce the risk of long-term changes to the ear. ❤️
If your pet has a swollen ear, give us a call today!
