Yeehaw! Callie’s ready to round up some cuddles and wrangle your heart this Stampede season! 🤠🐾 From feedlot cat to boot scootin’ cutie, she’s the sheriff of snuggles here at the clinic — and no appointment is safe from her charm! 💙🐱

Greek mythology had Cerberus guarding the gates of the underworld… our version guards the interior of a cozy carrier and demands belly rubs for passage.

These three little fluffballs were absolute angels for their vaccines, but don't be fooled—together, they wield a level of adorableness strong enough to bring any grown human to their knees.

Callie is purrfectly dressed for the holiday — and yes, she’s already demanding maple-flavored treats and the comfiest seat for fireworks-watching. 😼🇨🇦✨

Whether you're off to the mountains, firing up the grill, or just enjoying some couch cuddles with your furry family, we hope your day is filled with tail wags, nose boops, and true Canadian chill.

Quick holiday pet tips:
❤️ Fireworks = scary! Keep pets safe indoors
💧 Stay cool & hydrated
🍔 No people food for the floofs — especially onions, chocolate, and bones!

Have a paw-some Canada Day, Calgary!

Wishing everyone a purr-fect Victoria Day from your loyal clinic monarch. 🐾✨

Callie’s out wandering, gentle and free,
Sniffing the flowers, as calm as can be. 🐾🌷
With the birds up above and blooms down below,
She’s the heart of our springtime, stealing the show.
Stop by to say hi, or just share a breeze—
She’s the purr-fect reminder to savor the ease.

Who knew check-ups could be this cute? Bandi the sugar glider came by for his exam and had the whole team smiling 😄. He was calm, curious, and full of personality — and Dr. Schofer and Dr. Rix loved spending time with him! We couldn’t resist snapping a few photos of this little charmer. 💙🐿️

Not every Easter photo turns out picture purr-fect… 😹 Callie had some thoughts about being in a basket, and she wasn’t shy about sharing them. Consider this your behind-the-scenes peek at the chaos behind the cuteness!

Hope your week is full of laughs, treats, and maybe a little mischief—Callie-style.

The risk of Lyme disease in Canada is growing.

The third layer of tick protection is to discuss whether Lyme disease vaccination is right for your dog. As we have reviewed this month, it is important to be aware of when ticks are active and avoid locations where ticks can be found.

If you can’t avoid them, make sure to do a tick check on your pet after being in those areas. Remove ticks promptly if they are found. In addition to awareness and avoidance, practicing uninterrupted tick control with a veterinary-approved product further reduces risk.

Finally, Lyme vaccinations are avaiable for dogs. Your veterinarian is the best resource to determine if this vaccine is right for your dog.

Tick Talk is an online hub for everything you need to know about ticks, tick season, where ticks can be found, and tick prevention.
