Did you know that life-saving measures, such as treatment for immune-mediated diseases and trauma, are possible for many dogs thanks to one canine blood donor?
With one blood donation, your pet could save the lives of 3 dogs across Canada, as different blood products can be harvested from one donation.
Your pet may be the one to provide the unit of blood that saves a life. We want to thank our donors from last week's blood drive! If you want to join, this amazing cause please check out https://canadiananimalbloodbank.ca for more information.
We are all bundled up today sharing our favourite moments from the Santa Claus Parade!

“My dog got into the garbage. What should I do?”
This is a frequently asked question and a common concern for pet owners. Dr. Quinn is here to break it down for you!
🐶 If they’ve stolen basic food waste that doesn’t contain bones, corn cobs or apple cores, monitor closely but there is likely no need to panic. Keep a close eye on their appetite, bathroom habits or for changes in behaviour.
🗑️ If they got into the bathroom garbage and have ingested tissue, paper towel, tampons or sanitary pads, there is a significant risk of obstruction. You’ll want to contact your vet immediately for this!
In any case, if you’re ever concerned or not sure about what could have been in the garbage bag, contact your veterinarian! We’re here to help.
