We are excited to meet you and your four-legged family members!
(75)
We are a team of 3 small animal veterinarians and 7 dedicated support staff members striving to provide quality care for your pet in a caring and compassionate manner.
Purrfect Haven Cat Rescue held their first annual Walk-a-thon this past weekend and boy oh boy, it was hot! Laurie and Pam volunteered at their First Aid table and there were lots of door prizes to be won... and food trucks!
Although the turnout wasn't what they had hoped for (due to the extreme heat), money was raised for a great cause and we all had alot of fun!
Thanks to everyone for their donations and support to this very worthy cause! 🐈🐱
It's a hot one outside! Please keep your doggos inside when it's a scorcher like this! Or at least only out for a quick walk to go to the washroom!
Ticks vary greatly in size depending on their species and growth stage. Are you able to find the ticks on the picture below?
Yes, basically they are the size of a poppy seed until they've had a blood meal - crazy!
Call us today if you still need to pick up your flea/tick and heartworm prevention 👍
Laurie, Pam, Cathy and her daughter Alyssa and friend all did paint night this past weekend and wow, who knew that our vet staff were so artistic lol!
Has anyone ever done paint night before? They are alot of fun and its always interesting to see everyone's different perspectives with their paintings!
Well done ladies! ❤👍🐈⬛
Check out this handsome fella!!
Chance was in the clinic quite a bit last week as he was ill, but he's back up and at it and loving life again! Such a trooper! 💪
Happy Friday from all of us at Fairmont and Chance! Cheers 😃❤🐾
Diesel and Sophie (Daniella's dogs) were hanging out in the sun the other day enjoying the gorgeous weather!!
Of course, they have their flea, tick and heartworm prevention on board so no worries for them this season - they are protected!
Do you have your pets prevention for the season? Call us today if you still need to get that started 😀🦟❤
Next weekend on Saturday, June 22 Laurie and Pam will be volunteering at this fun event for Purrfect Haven Cat Rescue!

Ear mites are tiny parasites that can found in the ears of dogs, cats, rabbits and other mammals which feed on the wax and oil inside the ear canal. Symptoms of an ear mite infestation can include dark discharge (looks like coffee grounds) or scratching and can only be seen by taking a sample of that discharge and checking it under a microscope.
Even though they are highly contagious via direct contact with another infested animal, they can be fairly easily treated with a thorough ear cleaning at our clinic as well as anti-parasitic medication.
Call today if you have any concerns about these little critters!
Lets do some more puppy and kitten photos because hey, why not? Its Friday and you can NEVER see enough cute pet photos - amiright?! Look at how lovable they all are!
Welcome to Fairmont, we can't wait to watch you all grow up! ❤🐾👏
Hope everyone has a great weekend! ☀️

One of our clients is missing her cat, Baby. He hasn't been seen since 3pm on Monday, May 20 so PLEASE keep an eye out in the Sanders St neighbourhood!! If you can also check your backyards, garages and under your porches, his owner and ourselves would be eternally grateful!
He is a nervous little tabby and isn't used to be outside. Please also feel free to share this post, we will keep you all posted if/when he is found.
THANK YOU ALL from the bottom of our hearts ❤🥹
FAD or Flea Allergy Dermatitis, is the most common skin disease found in dogs and cats caused by an external parasite. A flea will bite the pet to take a blood meal, and the saliva of the flea will cause an allergic chemical reaction of the skin.
Often when pets come in with skin rashes, its FAD. Its even more prevalent in the fall after the fleas have had a chance to reproduce.
See our blog below for more info! 🪳

Happy Victoria Day!
We are closed today but please refer to the list of alternative clinics on our website in the event of an emergency. We will re-open tomorrow morning at 8am, resuming regular business hours.
If there are fireworks in your neighbourhood, remember to keep your pets indoors, play some music or have the TV on to help drown out the loud booms and keep them in an area close to you so they know they are safe and sound!
If your pets are more anxious about loud noises like fireworks or thunderstorms, we can also provide some mild sedative to help keep them calm and stress free. Call us today if you'd like to discuss further!
Hope everyone has an amazing long weekend and enjoys your extra day off! 🏖🎆

Happy Friday everyone!! 🐹☀️
Colder weather and higher risk? Tick-borne diseases are spreading in Canada…and our cold winters aren’t helping!
New Canadian research shows that when a Blacklegged tick is infected with the Lyme disease bacteria it may be more likely to be active on mild days during the colder months AND more likely to survive cold weather compared to uninfected ticks!
Let's face it, they are inevitable and seem to be moving further into the Southwestern Ontario region as each year passes. They are never going to go away!! Year round prevention may be the norm in the upcoming years!
Happy Mothers Day to all the loving, caring, patient, hardworking and all-around amazing Mom's out there!!
Whether you're a mom to humans or moms to furbabies, you're all very much appreciated each and every day - but TODAY is YOUR day so we hope you all feel the love even a bit more 😊❤🐾
Have you seen our tick table yet? So far we have removed 5 ticks from our patients and the number just keeps growing! As you can see by the little pill bottle, we like to keep them here for "show and tell"!!
Also, we have had 7 dogs that tested positive for Lyme and Anaplasmosis disease which are both carried by ticks 😬
Both diseases are treatable with antibiotics however prevention is key!! 💯
Call us today if you still need to pick up your prevention for this year! 📞
Rainy days don't get Russell down!! Look at how ADORABLE he is in his cute little rainjacket?! Russell you are so sweet and it was so nice to meet you! Welcome to our Fairmont Family ❤🐾🌧
You know, sometimes things just don't work out as we had planned! We always try to accommodate everyone as best we can but once in a while, we have to tweak the plans (or appointments) here at Fairmont.
So we just want to say Thank You to our amazing community when we have to call to reschedule an appointment due unforeseen emergencies. It often takes a small village to help those in need, when needed... so thank you all for being so great when called upon!! Hope everyone has an amazing weekend! 💪👏❤

Puppy socialization is very important in the first few months of your puppies life as it will permanently shape their future personality and how they will react to their environment as an adult dog. Check out this video of Dr Vicki's new puppy Cheddar 🧀 playing with Cathy's dogs, Wagner and Ivory! <3 It is important that you know the medical history and temperament of the animals you expose your puppy to so just keep that in mind. See the link below for more tips on puppy socialization! https://www.fairmontvet.com/puppy-socialization/
#DentalFocus From now until March, we will be focusing on your pets dental care. Healthy teeth are an integral part of your pets overall well being so its very important that we keep an eye their pearly whites 🦷 An easy way to look after your pet’s teeth is to have them on a dental diet! Dental diets are generally larger in size and have more fibre in them than regular kibble. The larger size forces your dog or cat to chew the kibble rather than swallowing it whole, and the fibre keeps it from falling apart easily to also keep them chewing for longer. The chewing action causes the kibble to scrape across the tooth’s surface and helps remove daily plaque and some built-up tartar. Give us a call if you want to learn more or see if a dental diet is right for your pet!
We are a team of 4 small animal veterinarians and 7 dedicated support staff members striving to provide quality care for your pet in a caring and compassionate manner.
