✨ Today we’re celebrating Heather, one of our phenomenal RVTs! Her kindness, calm energy, and endless compassion make her a true gift to our team. Whether she’s skillfully monitoring anesthesia, solving tricky cytology cases, or lending a helping hand with a smile, Heather brings warmth and reliability to everything she does—we’re so lucky to have her! ❤️

We asked Heather some questions so you could get to know her better:

What was your very first pet’s name, and what kind of animal were they? Lassie a yellow Labrador mix

Go-to Starbucks order? Chai tea latte ☕

What’s one thing you can’t live without at work? At work I can't live without my amazing co-workers. We have the best work family period.

What’s your favorite thing about working in veterinary medicine? Getting to know pets and their people. It's an honour to play a part in maintaining that relationship. I love seeing our patients as they grow up and age over the years. 🐶

If your pet could talk, what’s the first thing you think they’d say? Can we please have another snack Mom?

If you weren’t working in vet med, what other career might you have pursued? Something in agriculture or environmental science.

It’s an understatement to say we couldn’t do this without them—we’re so grateful for our RVTs!

✨Poor Louie! This lil cutie ate something that is toxic to dogs. We made him vomit, then gave him some activated charcoal!

Whenever we have an ingestion of a toxic substance, we always give them activated charcoal. Activated charcoal works by binding to toxins in the stomach and intestines, preventing them from being absorbed into the bloodstream. It helps reduce the amount of toxin that enters the body!

Can you guess what Louie ate? Let us know what you think in the comments below! 👇
