☀️🔥 Hot Weather Cautions from Us! 🔥☀️

As temperatures rise, remember to keep your furry friends safe! Here are some essential tips:

🚗 Never leave pets in a parked car: Even a few minutes can be dangerous as temperatures inside can soar quickly.

🏠 Stay cool: Ensure your pets have access to shade, fresh water, and a cool place to rest.

💦 Hydration is key: Always have water available for your pets, especially during walks or outdoor activities.

Let’s keep our pets safe and comfortable during these hot days! If you have any concerns or need advice, feel free to contact us. Stay cool, everyone! 😎🐶🐱

✈🐾 Important Update for Pet Owners! 🐾✈

Planning to travel to the US with your dog? 🐶 Make sure you're up-to-date with the new regulations set by the CDC to ensure a smooth trip.

After updates on July 17 and again on July 22, the CDC majorly relaxed the rules for dog owners regarding the requirements. At this moment, the following is the information we received:

1. Dogs must be 6 months or older.
2. Dogs must have a microchip that can be detected with a universal scanner to identify them – i.e. have an ISO microchip
3. Dogs must be healthy upon arrival.
4. Owners have to apply for CDC Dog Import Form online

No forms are needed from veterinarians and no need to go to CFIA for endorsement.

Even though a Rabies vaccine certificate was not mentioned in the requirement, we do recommend preparing a certificate of the current/valid Rabies vaccine. This was the basic requirement before the rule change, plus the reason for the new rules is to prevent Rabies disease to enter the U.S. In the event that the border does have concerns of the vaccine/Rabies status of your dog, having it on hand could prevent any unforeseen complications. Also, your dog will need proof of a valid Rabies vaccine to re-enter Canada.

We recommend checking the following websites for details and validity of the CDC permit before your departure:

CDC: https://www.cdc.gov/importation/dogs/
CFIA: https://inspection.canada.ca/en/animal-health/terrestrial-animals/exports/pets/dogs-usa
Dr. Scott Weese's (University of Guelph, Ontario Veterinary College) Blog for a quick summary: https://www.wormsandgermsblog.com/2024/07/articles/animals/dogs/moving-dogs-from-canada-to-the-us-another-major-change/

🔍 What Are Microchips?🔍

Microchips are tiny, rice-sized devices implanted under your pet’s skin to provide a permanent ID. If your pet gets lost, a quick scan at any vet or shelter can reveal their unique code, ensuring they get back home safely. 🐾❤️

1. Prevents Kennel Cough: Shield your dog from a harsh, hacking cough that can lead to more serious complications.

🐾 Is your furry friend showing signs of GDV? 🚑🐶

GDV, or Gastric Dilatation and Volvulus, is a life-threatening condition that can affect any dog, but it's more commonly seen in large, deep-chested breeds. Watch out for signs like restlessness, pacing, excessive drooling, retching, and a distended abdomen - these could be indicators of GDV.

But fret not! There are steps you can take to prevent it! 💡 Eating two or more meals per day and avoiding exercise after large meals are crucial. Plus, using a slow feeder can work wonders in preventing your pup from gobbling up food too quickly, reducing the risk of GDV.

Stay informed, stay proactive, and keep your furry companion healthy and happy! 🐾
