Need A Vet In Perth

[bonnie22]

Hi there everyone,

I am new to the forum and I just want to know where to start with my dog.She is a Malteese/Dauchsund aprox 12mths old. She needs some treatment.She seems to have a weepy eye and needs a through check-up.I don't know if she has been sterilized,if she has had her shots or what treatment she will need ,such as heartworming,flea treatment. Basically I don't know where to start!!.Her previous owner had a health issue and left her.I took her home with no history and no details.I do know she needs a good scrub and possibly a haircut as she is rather strong on the nose(even with a cold).Poor wee thing.

I want to know what vet to take her to . One that is reasonable and don't cost the earth as we are pensioners.I want to do the best for my dog from now on and give her lots of TLC. There are so many Vets about and that is a big prob to us as we don't know where to start looking. We are in the Kinross area

We would appreciate your help and advice and about grooming her. What is the best.Do we take her to the vet for this also, or do we have someone else to do this?

Hope to hear from you soon,

Cheers, bonnie22

Hi Bonnie22, welcome to the forum!

I am SoR so not familiar with specific vets NoR or near Kinross but I think your best bet would be to try somewhere close by. It sounds like the dog needs a thorough check over by a vet as soon as possible and they can assist you with an action plan.

I googled and found this:

Kinross Veterinary Hospital

5/23 Edinburgh Ave

Kinross WA 6028

(08) 9305 5559

Maybe give them a call and see what they say?

Otherwise you should get a few more replies in the next day or so hopefully.

Edit - I just found a couple of reviews about the above vet clinic - see HERE

Good luck

The kinross vets are very good and reasonably priced too .....they also open on Sundays

I have had personal experience with them when my GSD got stung by a bee and ended up looking more like shar pei .....they were the nearest vet to me that was open on a Sunday ......she had 2 injections and they only charged me 88 dollars The lovely lady vet even phoned me later that afternoon to see how she was
