EQUINE VETERINARY CARE

Equine Veterinary Care

PRACTICAL, COMPASSIONATE CARE FOR YOUR HORSE’S HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE

From routine health checks to targeted treatment plans, Vet Cross provides trusted equine veterinary care across Bundaberg, Bargara and Gin Gin.

Our vets bring a strong mix of practical experience, diagnostic skills and a deep understanding of horse health — whether your animal is a pleasure pony, working horse, or competition athlete.

We support horses at every life stage with preventative care, responsive treatment and tailored advice, all delivered on-site where your horse is most comfortable.

Equine Dentistry

EQUINE DENTISTRY

Dental problems can affect everything from feed efficiency to rider safety. Our team offers:

  • Dental examinations and teeth floating
  • Correction of overgrowths, hooks and wave mouth
  • Tooth extractions when necessary
  • Sedation and pain relief for stress-free procedures

Regular dentistry supports better condition, comfort and behaviour — and can often be done during annual visits or herd health checks.

Vaccination Programs

VACCINATION PROGRAMS

We provide risk-based vaccinations tailored to your horse’s work, travel and exposure. Commonly recommended vaccinations include:

  • Hendra virus
  • Tetanus
  • Strangles
  • Equine herpesvirus (EHV)

Our vets can also advise on schedules for horses in group environments or those travelling interstate or overseas.

Parasite Control & Faecal Testing

PARASITE CONTROL & FAECAL TESTING

A good parasite control program protects your horse’s health and reduces resistance. We offer:

  • Strategic deworming advice based on age and risk
  • Faecal egg count testing
  • Rotational and targeted worming plans
  • Guidance on paddock and pasture management

We take the guesswork out of parasite control — and help ensure your treatments stay effective.
