Please remember if your dog has been diagnosed with having a possible problem with the voice box (laryngeal paralysis) or you notice that they have heavy breathing or pant excessively it is crucial that you be very careful about exposing them to the heat. Dogs pant to cool themselves and these dogs cannot cool themselves properly by panting. They need to have limited time out and may need fans in the house. If you think your dog is overheating do not immerse them in cold water - spray their less furred parts with tempid water and get them to a cool place or into your car with the air conditioner running.

Happy Canada Day. We hope that everyone has a great day celebrating our fantastic country. Remember to have collars on your dogs if there is any chance they can be scared by fireworks and can run away! Don't take them to any fireworks shows leave them safely at home.

Are you missing this very handsome and smart intact male black Lab. He was found on Main St in Hampton - a good Samaritan prevented him from getting hit by a car. No microchip was found when we scanned him. Call us at 506-832-7673
