An obedient dog is a much more pleasurable experience for owners and people the dog comes in contact with than an uncontrollable dog. Just being able to give the command to SIT, WAIT and HEEL is essential. And your puppy enjoys knowing it's boundaries as well.

𝗣𝗨𝗣𝗣𝗬 𝗣𝗥𝗘-𝗦𝗖𝗛𝗢𝗢𝗟 𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗦 – We are running four Puppy Pre-School Classes each month in Oamaru, Timaru and Waimate. This is a great opportunity to socialise your new puppy, as well as starting their training. Enrolments are essential and we try to limit numbers to 8 puppies (each 4 week class), so if you'd like to enrol your puppy then contact your local Veterinary Centre by the Big Blue Cross.
OAMARU - Starts first Tuesday of the month at 5.45pm
311 Thames Street, Oamaru - Phone 03 434 5666
TIMARU - Starts first Wednesday of the month at 5.45pm

We currently have two male Tiny Tigers available at the Veterinary Centre Oamaru by the Big Blue Cross to go to their 'furever' homes.

These kittens have been de-sexed, microchipped, vaccinated, and had a flea and worm treatment applied. We will also give you a starter pack which has everything your new kitten needs to settle into their new home. All this for the great value of just $169.

Please call the Veterinary Centre if you are interested in providing a home for one of our Tiny tigers.

𝗦𝗡𝗜𝗣 ‘𝗡’ 𝗖𝗛𝗜𝗣 𝗜𝗦 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞!
SPCA New Zealand are excited to be launching a new Snip ‘n’ Chip campaign for cat owners in the Oamaru area.

From 15 April 2026 the SPCA through the Veterinary Centre Oamaru, are offering this service to cat owners who are struggling with the cost of desexing and microchipping. Vouchers help those in need get their cat desexed and microchipped for $30.

Bookings are now OPEN! Click the link below to register for your Snip ‘n’ Chip voucher ... limited numbers available. If you know someone who needs help with the online system, you can help by completing the registration with them. https://book.spcadesexing.nz/

PLEASE REMEMBER – a limited number of vouchers are available to help those who require financial assistance. Please, only get a voucher if you need one and intend to use it. In the past, we have noticed some vouchers were never used, or bookings were made with vet clinics and never attended. When this happens, it prevents someone else from using the voucher who might really need it.
