It is August first today and in honour of that we are introducing the month of "DOGust". This month we will be featuring adoptable dogs on our social media platform to help these wonderful animals find homes! This lovely boy already has a fantastic home but we couldn't help but to share this sweet face π₯Ήπ
Have you ever adopted from a rescue/shelter before? Share a story with us about how you got your pets!
Chill out this summer with a crisp and cooling snack!
Frozen cucumber slices are hydrating and perfect for keeping your pup cool on hot days. Give it a try, and watch those tails wag! π₯π πΎβοΈ
Do you have a summer treat you give your pets? Share them in the comments!
πΎ On , let's paw-se to appreciate our pets who make every day brighter. Life is truly better with them by our side! Share your favorite pet moments and celebrate the joy they bring. πΆπ±
Keep your pets safe this summer by avoiding peak heat hours! π Peak heat hours are typically from 10 AM - 4 PM. During this time, opt for indoor chill sessions with interactive toys, games, and training to keep them entertained and comfortable. π‘πΎ And don't forget the cuddles!
Upgrade Your Pet's Hydration Game! π A helpful tip is to use a water fountain for pets to encourage increased water consumption. The flowing water not only keeps water fresh and appealing but also entices pets to drink more, promoting better hydration and overall health.
Treat your furry friend to the luxury of a water fountain and watch them thrive! πΎπ§
We have some very EXCITING news! We are hosting an open house to celebrate our 25 YEAR anniversary!!! There will be so many fun things to see and do and multiple ways you can support a local cat rescue we work with; the PAW Society! And did we mention there will be a Silent Auction with some VERY cool things up for grabs! Bring your kids along so they can explore the treatment and surgery areas of a vet clinic and perform teddy bear surgeries with the very lovely Dr.Gibson! Cats and dogs are welcome to come for nail trims where 100% of proceeds go to The Paw Society! Once you are done exploring our wonderful clinic, relax and enjoy from a couple food trucks joining us for the event and grab a fun balloon animal on the way out :) WE CANNOT WAIT TO SEE YOU HERE!
π¨ Has your furry friend gone missing? Don't panic, but act swiftly! Here are the steps to take:
πΎ Spread the word: Share a detailed description and recent photo of your pet on social media, community boards, and with local shelters.
πΎ Search the area: Start searching nearby - pets often stay close to home when lost. Bring treats or familiar items to attract them.
πΎ Contact shelters: Contact animal shelters, vet clinics, and animal control agencies in your area. Provide them with your pet's description and microchip details.
πΎ Leave a scent trail: Place your pet's favorite toys, bedding, or clothing with your scent outside your home. This can help guide them back if they're nearby.
πΎ Seek help: Enlist friends, family, and neighbors to help search the neighborhood and distribute flyers.
Remember, time is of the essence. Act quickly and remain hopeful. Together, we can bring your beloved pet home safely.
This weather just won't stop! And although we are grateful for the beautiful weather, it can be dangerous! Here is a quick guide in what Heat Stroke is and how you can prevent it in your pets!
π¦πΎ Celebrating National Ice Cream Day with a twist! Whip up this dog-safe ice cream recipe and treat your furry friend to a delicious summer delight! πΆπ
π« NEVER leave your pet in a hot car! ππ₯ Even with windows cracked, temperatures soar dangerously fast, risking heatstroke and even death. Remember: if it's too hot for you, it's WAY too hot for them. Keep your furry pals safeβno exceptions, no excuses.
Let's ensure our beloved Brachycephalic breeds are safe this summer! πΆπ¦ These breeds have a unique respiratory anatomy that requires special care. Keep them cool with shade and hydration, and pay extra close attention to signs of overheating. Consider cooling products and always groom with caution. If you have any specific questions or concerns, be sure to consult your vet for tailored advice! βοΈ

UH OH! Guess what is out on the prowl.... it is Tick Season! We found this bad boy on a dog this week that came into our clinic. Did you know that fleas and some ticks are capable of transmitting infection and disease to your pets through their bites? Many cats and dogs can also get severe allergic reactions from them. In order to keep your pets safe make sure to thoroughly look them over after being outside, especially when you are in long grassy areas, woods, etc. Ticks do tend to hide in areas such as between the toes, under the armpits, under the tail, and other places that are more secluded. We also highly recommend getting tick prevention from your veterinarian to make sure your pet is safe! πͺ²πββ¬π #yql #veterinarian #lethbridge #localbusiness #smallbusiness #vetmedicine #highlandspethospital #tickseason #tick #tickprevention #vetclinic #animalclinic #smallanimal #vet #prevention #animalhealth
