In addition to the normal wide range of small animal consultations and surgeries, we offer the following services.
Our vets work as a team at Southern Cross Veterinary Clinic. We offer in practice second and often third opinions when necessary! Our vets like to discuss cases together so you can be sure that your pet is receiving the best medical and surgical care possible. However, it is of most benefit to your pet to attend follow up appointments with the same vet.
FREE NEW PUPPY AND KITTEN CHECK UPS
Please bring your new bundle of joy for a health check. Our vets will make sure that all is well and check when the next vaccination and deworming is due. You will also be able to purchase all your puppy and kitten accessories.
We love meeting your new family member.
DOG BATHING
We offer a dog bathing service every morning during weekdays, weather permitting. You can choose a shampoo for your dog or ask one of the vets to recommend a shampoo especially if your dog has a skin problem. The dogs are brushed and after their bath, they air dry in one of our outdoor cages. We do not offer clipping or trimming.

FREE SENIOR HEALTH CLINIC
Ageing is a process of changes to the body. Middle-aged pets start undergoing ageing processes which become obvious when your pet is seen as a senior (7 years old, depending on size and breed).
Ageing can be managed by understanding the changes occurring and acting on them before too much damage is done. Senior health checks (at least once a year) can lead to early detection of any age related problem.
Contact us to make an appointment at our Senior Clinic. A consultation fee may be levied for problems unrelated to age.
PUPPY SCHOOL
Please enrol your new puppy in our socialisation classes at out Tali-Wag Puppy School. Classes are held in our garden on a Saturday morning by Tracey who is a veterinary nurse. Your puppy will have so much fun and you will given lots of information and instruction. We find that puppies who have attended the classes will love their future trips to our practice.
