Prioritise preventative health for your pets


2025 is already in full swing, and we’ve hit the ground running. Much like you, we’re making plans and gearing up for what’s bound to be a big year.

The start of a new year is the perfect time to set the tone for the months ahead. From setting work goals to preparing your children for the return to school, there’s plenty to plan. But what about prioritising preventative health for your pets?

Preventative care is essential for keeping your cherished pets safe from harmful diseases and pests. Here are four simple steps you can take to ensure they stay protected all year long…


Tick Protection

Ticks are a year-round concern, especially in Australia’s warm climate. We recommend protecting your pet from these dangerous parasites with BRAVECTO® QUANTUM – a new yearly tick prevention treatment. With just one dose, you can keep your pet safe from tick-borne illnesses for an entire year.

This is the first and only annual injection designed to protect your dog from fleas and ticks for a full 12 months with a single dose. We’ve seen incredible results, making it a standout option for long-term parasite protection.


Heartworm Prevention

Heartworm disease is a serious condition that can have devastating consequences for pets. A simple yearly heartworm injection, like Proheart SR12, provides peace of mind and year-long protection for your pet against this life-threatening parasite.


Intestinal Worm Protection

Intestinal worms don’t just pose a risk to pets – in some cases they can be passed on to humans. To keep your whole family safe, we recommend using a high-quality all-wormer every three months. This routine is essential to protecting your pet from harmful parasites and safeguarding your family’s health.


Vaccinations

Vaccinations are vital for keeping your pet safe from potentially deadly diseases. For dogs, this includes protection against parvovirus, distemper virus, canine infectious hepatitis, and kennel cough. Cats are vaccinated against cat flu, feline enteritis, and FIV for outdoor cats.

With a recent parvovirus outbreak in Brisbane, it’s more important than ever to ensure your pet’s vaccinations are up to date. Annual check-ups help keep their immunity strong, and our team is here to guide you on the best preventative care for your pet.
