🐾 WARNING: Puppy on Site 🐾

We truly love all of our patients — from our wise old seniors to our sassy cats — but there is honestly no better way to completely derail a team of veterinary professionals than to wave a fresh puppy through the door.

Enter Norman 🥹
A rolly-polly, 10-week-old British Bulldog puppy who had our entire team melting, smiling, and suddenly finding “very important reasons” to walk past the consult room.

Scientific fact*: productivity drops dramatically when puppies like Norman are present.
(*okay… not scientific, but definitely true.)

Thanks for sharing the puppy love, Norman — we’ll be talking about you all week 💙

**Drop a pic of your fur babies in the comments we would love to see them **

🐶 A Little History on the British Bulldog

The British Bulldog was originally bred in England in the 1200s. Today’s Bulldogs are loving, people-focused companions who thrive on attention (and naps… lots of naps).

As with all flat-faced breeds, Bulldogs do need some special care, including monitoring for breathing, skin, and temperature regulation — something our team is always happy to help guide owners through.

🐾 Exciting Update for Our Clients & Patients! 🐾

You may notice something new during your upcoming visits! We’re are utilising VetRec AI (aka Dave) – a smart consult note system that assists our vets by recording and organising medical notes in real time.

💡 What does this mean for you?

It means our vets will be able to spend more time talking with you, examining your pet, and focusing on their care — and less time typing behind a computer.

Your pet gets our full attention, and you get a more connected, face-to-face experience. 🩺❤️

As always, your privacy and your pet’s wellbeing remain our top priority. If you ever have questions about how this works or what it means for your visit, please reach out — we’re more than happy to chat.

📞 Call, message, or pop in anytime. We’re here for you and your furry family.

Thanks for trusting us with their care,
The Team @ Beleura Vet 🐶🐱💙

Meet Dr Adam Young 🩺

We would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to a new member of our team.

Some of our wonderful clients have already had the opportunity to meet him.

Drum roll please . . . . . . . .Welcome to Team Beleura . . . . Dr Adam

Adam graduated from the University of Edinburgh in 2020 and spent several years working in small animal practice in the north of England before making the move to the Peninsula in June 2024. He enjoys all aspects of general practice, with particular interests across both medical and surgical care.

Outside the clinic, Adam is loving Peninsula life — taking advantage of the local beaches and scenic walks — while also enjoying being just a short drive from Melbourne for sporting and live music events.

We’re thrilled to have Dr Adam as part of our team!

🌞🐨 Helping Our Wildlife During Extreme Heat 💧

With soaring temperatures, Australia’s native wildlife can struggle to cope. You can help by taking a few simple steps:

💧 Put out water

Place shallow bowls of fresh water in shaded areas. Add a stick or stones so small animals can get in and out safely.

🌳 Create shade & cool spaces

Leave shrubs, trees and garden areas undisturbed. Lightly misting plants can help create cooler refuge areas.

🦘 Watch for heat stress

Wildlife seen out during the day, appearing weak, disoriented or grounded may be in trouble.

👉 Do not give food.

Minimise handling and contact your local wildlife rescue for advice.

📞 Save wildlife rescue numbers

In VIC: Wildlife Victoria 1300 094 535

Small actions can make a big difference during heatwaves. Let’s look after our wildlife 💚

🔥 Extreme Heat Alert + 40°C Heat is on its way here in Melbourne 🔥

Dogs and cats are at high risk of heat stress and heat stroke. Please take extra care of your pets during this extreme heat.

Ways to keep your pets cool:

🐶🐱 Keep pets indoors during the hottest part of the day

💧 Ensure constant access to fresh, cool water (add ice cubes if they like!)

❄️ Use fans or air conditioning where possible

🌳 Provide shade and ventilation if pets are outside

🚫 Avoid walks, playtime, or car trips during the day – never leave pets in cars

🧊 Cooling mats, damp towels, or frozen treats can help

🐾 Walk dogs early morning or late evening only (check pavement temperature with your hand)

⚠️ Signs of heat stroke – this is an emergency:

• Excessive panting or drooling
• Lethargy, weakness, or collapse
• Vomiting or diarrhoea
• Bright red or pale gums
• Uncoordinated movement or seizures

If you notice any of these signs, cool your pet immediately by taking them into air conditioning or popping them in front of a fan. You can place an ice pack wrapped in a towel under them however they must be able to move off it if they need to. It is no longer recommended to Wet them down with a hose - Gentle (not rapid) cooling is best

Please share this post to help keep pets safe during this heatwave 💙🐾

💛 Client Love 💛

We’re so grateful to receive feedback like this — it truly means the world to us. Thank you for trusting us with your new baby bunny 🐰💕

“We cannot thank Emma enough. Having a 5-week-old bunny sold to us and not realising it was actually too young to send home was very stressful! However Emma guided us through it all and got milk and even hay from her own horse delivered for us ❤️ I cannot thank her enough — she gave absolutely exceptional service 😘 Winston is very healthy thanks to her and we are so grateful xx”

Little Winston stole our hearts, and we’re so happy to see him thriving. Helping pets (big and small!) get the best start in life is why we do what we do 🐾💖
