Energy Vets Taranaki Ltd
Energy Vets Taranaki: We're here to help your pet stay happy and healthy.
We are still seeing injured wild birds at this time but please give us a call before you bring them to the clinic. Once here, stay in your car and call us so that we can then triage it. Any sick wild birds please do not move them from their location and call MPI.
If you have your own birds that are sick or injured please call our clinic to make an appointment. Please stay in your car and call us to inform us of your arrival and we will have a vet come out to you to triage them.
HPAI H5N1 (H5 high pathogenicity avian influenza) has a low human health risk, however it can be spread to those working closely with sick birds. Dogs and cats can also contract the disease so it is a good idea to limit exposure to sick wild birds where possible.
As part of our professional commitment to good stewardship of animal remedies we are passionate about monitoring your farm's ongoing antibiotic sensitivities.
We encourage culture of individual mastitis cases using our own incubator and annual bulk milk testing using an Antibiogram test to see if the remedies you are using are the most effective ones for your farm's situation.
