🐶🌸⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Our smallest little pup, 11 year old Chihuahua, Petal, came in for a dental. She only weighs 1.82kg! *squeal* 😍Here she is getting cuddles with Nurse Jodie! Petal wears little socks because she slips on the tiles at home *squeal* 😍 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #smallfriendsvet #smallfriends #canberrapets #canberracats #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #catsofcanberra #dogsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #gungahlin #rspca_act #canberra #wearecbr #kitten #puppy #covid19canberra
Old friends new friends 🐶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ One of the pleasures of our job (and yes, there are many) is to get to know families and their small friends 🧡 We are truly honoured to be there through the beginnings, ends, up and downs of your journey with your small friend 🐱🐶🐰🐭After losing a small friend it can be hard to know when the right time will be, if ever, to bring another into your life 🤔but by the time they are due for the first booster vaccination most people say they can't imagine life without their new baby 😁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We have been f r i e n d s with the Gibbs family for 14 years and we were so excited to meet their new puppy Remi 👏🏻 Here she is when she came in for her vaccinations! Remi has a lot to live up to as we were very good friends with her brother Flynn 💙 Since this photo was taken she has been back to visit us for her desexing and well...she is firmly in our hearts - just like her brother 💕You don't ever forget your friends and please know, neither do we. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #smallfriendsvet #smallfriends #canberrapets #canberracats #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #catsofcanberra #dogsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #gungahlin #rspca_act #canberra #wearecbr #kitten #puppy
If they had to fly into a window, they chose the right one 😅 🐦👏🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This little bird 🐦was being chased by a magpie, and flew straight into our office window 🙈Nurse Josie, immediately went outside and picked him up, as he was unable to stand up or walk straight 😵⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We gave him a check over. He was a bit stunned from the hard hit to the head, so we kept him in a dark box for a little while to let him rest and recover safely 😴 After a couple of hours he was trying to fly in his box so we took him outside to see if he was ready to fly away, and he did! 😄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It was our pleasure, little guy 😍
Cuddle loving Luna 🐱 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Beautiful 4 year old Luna came in to have her teeth cleaned 💫and loved to climb up onto Nurse Tara’s shoulder for cuddles whenever Tara tried to take her obs 🥰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Might your small friend need a dental? 🦷You may have noticed their breath is a bit on the nose? 👃🏾Or maybe they are even not keen to chew bones or hard food like they used to? 😖At Small Friends Vet we offer FREE dental checks all year round. Just call us ☎️ on 6262 2233 to arrange a time to come in. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #smallfriendsvet #smallfriends #canberrapets #canberracats #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #catsofcanberra #dogsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #gungahlin #canberra #wearecbr #kitten #puppy #teeth #informationpage

Christmas-Chu 🎄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Pika and Rai came to visit all ready for Christmas!! 😍Pika is a 4 year old Cavoodle and Rai, a 4 year old German Spitz. Pika was wearing a little Santa hat 🎅🏻with reindeer ears 🦌 and Rai had the Christmas spirit (he doesn’t like hats, but didn’t want to be left out!) ✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ To add to their cuteness, their mum's name is Natasha Choo, so Pika and Rai’s full names are Pika Choo and Rai Choo (The Pokémon’s “Pikachu” and “Raichu”) 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #smallfriendsvet #smallfriends #canberrapets #canberracats #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #catsofcanberra #dogsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #gungahlin #rspca_act #canberra #wearecbr #kitten #puppy
