☀️ Summer begins today — and a major heat wave is right behind it. ⚠️

From overheating and sunburn to dehydration and heatstroke, extreme temperatures can be life-threatening for both dogs and cats.

This quick guide shares simple steps to help keep your dog safe in the summer heat. While it's especially important for brachycephalic breeds, dogs with dark coats, and those with underlying health conditions, high temperatures pose a risk to all dogs.

The safest place for your pet during extreme heat is indoors, ideally with air conditioning.

This means we will be open from 8am May 16th continuously through to 8am May 18th.
All appointments during this time will be triage-based with priority given to the animals with the most urgent need.
We appreciate all those that have come together to help us help the community - Please have patience with us, as we are new at this.

Terminology Tuesday: Capturing 🐾

Ever notice your dog naturally doing something awesome—like lying down calmly or offering a sit? That’s a perfect moment to capture the behavior!

Capturing means marking (using your reward marker) and rewarding a behavior your dog does on their own, without prompting or luring. It’s all about timing and reinforcing what you love as it happens.

This may look like your dog laying down while your kids are playing on the other side of a baby gate or when you’re walking your newborn baby around.

The more you capture, the more your dog will repeat those great choices. So keep your treats handy and your eyes open—you never know when a great behavior will pop up!

4/20 -- it’s a great time to remember: what’s safe for humans isn’t always safe for pets. Keep ma*****na products out of paws’ reach!
