***Cat is still missing, please keep an eye out for her especially if you live in the Rowley - Hibernia Heights near Bains Corner/St. Martins area.

"Cookie" escaped from her carrier in the parking lot of the clinic Friday Aug 2nd and headed up the hill into the woods towards the Hibernia area. She is wearing a red collar. Cookie is an indoor/outdoor kitty so is used to being outside and is a bit shy so may seek a hiding spot up in the trees. Please keep an eye out for her and let us know or contact her owner Janet London-Smith at 652-5719 if you see her. We had live traps set near the top of the hill where we lost sight of her when she escaped but they have attracted a lot of wildlife so we had to remove them as of Monday am. We are still seeing lots of wildlife on trail cameras so for safety sake are not able to put traps out at this time. Please use caution if you are looking in the area.

We've had several people call with concerns about their pets during the eclipse. Although you can certainly keep your pet in during this time if you choose please know that pets do not stare at the sun and therefore there is no risk of their vision being damaged.

Hello friends!

The total solar eclipse is just around the corner, and just about everyone is ready to see the once in a lifetime event. We are seeing some mixed information about pet/wildlife safety.

Contrary to what some may read, the sun itself is not any more dangerous during the eclipse. The reason protective eye wear is recommended for humans (who wish to observe the eclipse) is because many of us will be staring directly at the sun that day, which is something we typically avoid.

For our pets, and outdoor wildlife, that day will be similar to any other day. Our pets don’t stare at the sun, so there is no need to keep them indoors on April 08 for any extended period of time. They may notice the change in temperature, but it is unlikely they will exhibit any unusual behaviour.

The eclipse can be more unsettling for birds. The dimming of the sky can mimic behaviour at dusk and during early storm formation, so some birds may demonstrate a wind-down behaviour and there may be less activity in the sky during the peak eclipse. Once the sky returns to normal, so does their behaviour.

If you are purchasing eclipse glasses, please make sure they meet these criteria. For additional information about the eclipse please see:
https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/safety/

For a list of approved solar-viewing goggles please see:

https://eclipse.aas.org/eye-safety/viewers-filters

It is not safe to watch the eclipse through the lens of your smartphone - it can damage both your phone camera and your eyes. Try this instead:

Safe watching our friends!

Missing german shepherd in the Hillsdale area. Please contact owner if you think you have seen him. Do not try to capture him.

Update - it has changed to rain/freezing rain and the roads are extremely slushy with super high winds and some flooding in some areas. Recommendations are to stay off the roads if at all possible so my staff will not be coming in but I will be here for anyone that still wants to keep their appts this afternoon. I definitely recommend not attempting it without a 4wd.

We are helping a client rehome their mastiff mix as he unfortunately is not doing well with their other dog therefore he must go to a home with no other dogs. You can message us for info or contact the # below.

Looking to rehome an 18 month old Half English/Half Bill Mastiff mix “Beau”.

He is a very loving and affectionate boy who does well with cats but not with other dogs.

It is with broken hearts to have to rehome him, we love this sweet boy so much but as he has entered his teenage years, we have discovered he is not able to be in a home with other dogs and we also have a 2 year old mastiff.

If interested or would like some information, please call 506-608-1892
