A reminder that it is possible to encounter snakes on a sunny winters day.
Sadly, someones pet cat in Porepunkah had an encounter with a Venomous Snake and despite the best efforts of Alpine Animal Doctors it passed away.
Please be aware our Venomous Snakes do not hibernate and will appear when and where least expected even in the middle of winter.I have to say how amazing our community is. People who don't know each other came together to assist an animal that didn't belong to any of them. ❤⭐
Sadly, the outcome for the above pet was not great. And it stands as a cautionary tale to remind us all that there are still snakes present. 😢💔🐍🐍🐍
Our venomous snakes don’t hibernate? Why did I not know this? 😮
I nearly trod on a brown out the Barmah national park about 2 weeks ago not a sunny day very overcast & here it was just curled up my foot was almost on top of it & it just slithered away

Rip little buddy. Atleast you weren't alone x
Poor thing
Thankyou for trying, Dr Bec.
Keep your eyes peeled for this pair of reprobates! 😉❤
Thank you they didn’t come home last night
This past week has seen some very high highs and some very low lows for us at the clinic.
My heart goes out to those of our clients who are in their moments of grief. 💔😢
I'm also incredibly thankful to those clients who have taken time out in their busy lives to send us a 'Thank You' in whatever form they can. ❤ ❤ It really does mean a lot to us, both mentally and emotionally.
Having a pet is a having a contract with grief 😢 unfortunately they will pass and you have to remember all the joy your time with them has given
Wouldn't be without them ❤

Being the owner of several pets, I must say that the very best vet I have ever encountered is Dr. Bek and her staff. Keep up the good work. Barbara Clapperton

THE ALPINE ANIMAL DOCTORS' PROMISE
Our full service Veterinary Hospital provides quality care for all animals.
Since 2009, when Dr. Rebekah Day, BVSc (Dr. Bek) first opened a small clinic in Porepunkah, Alpine Animal Doctors has grown to become the ‘most trusted’ veterinary practice in the region. Our clients and patients come from across the Alpine region — from Myrtleford, Yackandandah and Beechworth to Bright, Harrietville and Mt Beauty.
With an A-Z of almost 350 veterinary services available our team is equipped to provide the optimum level of care for all conditions, and for all animal species, great or small, including farm livestock.
Our clinic is fully equipped with the most up to date equipment available, with state-of-the-art facilities the equal of any capital city-based specialist veterinary facility. We are constantly re-evaluating and upgrading our equipment and facilities to ensure that our patients receive only the very best treatment outcomes — the same level of care that we would want for our own animal family.
Dr. Bek’s team Includes our newly appointed Dr Rachael Harfield and our amazing nurses Mary, Cassie, Emily and Maddie — are all locals, all professionally qualified or currently studying, and dedicated to ensuring your animals are treated with compassion and kindness. Our practice is skillfully and successfully managed by Mark, Dr. Bek’s partner.
Most importantly, everyone at Alpine Animal Doctors loves animals just as much as you do. It’s why we do what we do. Our high tech equipment and advanced facilities are important, but, more than anything else, what makes us different is our people and our dedication.
