SO NICE TO MEET You.

My hunch is a dog-loving friend mentioned my name, or you stumbled across one of my videos, articles or something in the media. Whatever path you took, I’m really glad you’re here.

This site is full of incredible dog related resources and ideas that can help you enjoy a fun and active life with your fur baby. Here’s a quick lay of the land so you can find what you’re looking for.

WANT TO KNOW MORE
ABOUT ME?

I’m a veterinarian, mum and dog lover. And after owning three veterinary practices for a good chunk of my career I decided I needed to challenge myself in new ways, and that led me to become an author and presenter.

In a nutshell: I was born and raised in Far North Queensland, I am an obsessive learner and creator who spends time either upskilling veterinarians or working on awesome projects for fellow animal lovers.

As a Mum of little ones, I am passionate about the importance of kids being active and outdoors and promoting literacy in schools – both of which I have found can be achieved with dogs! I volunteer for Story Dogs Australia and donate a portion of all purchases to support therapy dogs and Aussie children. I’m currently based on the Gold Coast and the proud Veterinary Ambassador of Hypro Premium Dog Food.

I love educating both veterinary professionals and animal lovers. I am honoured to be a recognised CPD provider by the Australian Veterinary Association and that my dog Frankie has recognised me as the best doggie Mum she’s ever had.

Here’s what some
of the insiders have to say:

“Love your Dog” a book on absolutely everything you need to know about choosing, training, and keeping your dog healthy has one glaring problem. It wasn’t published when we got our beloved Georgie, who sadly passed away in the same year as her book is available- the horror year 2020. Dr Claire Stevens has written a book that not only is incredibly informative, but an absolute pleasure to read. The stories from her younger days, her personal struggles to get her own dog Sasha, her travels, and then coming to the realisation that veterinary science was where she needed to focus are heart warming. She is not frightened to speak her mind, even in areas where there is controversy, such as the use of bones in a dog’s diet, is very welcome, in an age where “sitting on the fence” is the norm. Buy it, enjoy it, and make your small animal pet be the beneficiary of the knowledge imparted from her to yourself.

Hello Dr Stevens. I'm sending you my congratulations on the publication of your awe-inspiring book on dog care. My husband is a retired vet, who I have often assisted and I think your book covers just about everything one could think of regarding caring for dogs! Plus it's totally readable. I think you're a very talented young woman.

Hi There, I'm a 74yr old and although without a dog at the moment am very much in love with them. This message is to Claire, I have your book beside me and have just finished it. It's a library book so has to go back. I just really needed to say what a great book it is, at my age and having owned a few dogs, means that I've also read a few books. Love your Dog, has to be hands down the best book on dogs and their care that I've ever read. There is so much of your humanity in the book Claire, your compassion and empathy shine through and make the book a definitive part of every dog lovers library.

Best dog book I’ve ever read! Thanks Claire, this is such a wonderful and feel-good read. I’ll keep your book handy throughout Lucky’s life, it’s such a useful resource.

It’s a big relief knowing that Dr Claire is our vet! My two staffys have been a handful over the years, from the time they went on their own adventure on a scorching hot day and burnt their paws and got heat stroke (Dr Claire responded straight away and provided us with much appreciated care), to advice on my poor dog with hip dysplasia, to reassurance and guidance on the difficult decision of euthanasia. Thanks to the help of Dr Claire, her book and her Facebook group, both our dogs are still going strong!
- Jessica Birtles
Dr Claire has been absolutely wonderful when trying to get a bit of veterinary guidance and advice. She has built up a friendly community via her social media and Facebook group and if I lived in the same town, I would definitely make her my local vet. Thank you Dr. Claire!

My Shitzu Poodle cross was hit in the chest by a stingray in the Whitsundays. Five hours sail from the nearest vet, Dr Claire's advice and reassurance saved his life. Her dedication to animal welfare is outstanding.

Dr Claire is not just gorgeous, but a highly knowledgeable and passionate veterinarian.
