As our furry friends grow older, their needs change. Here are some helpful tips to keep your senior pets healthy, happy, and comfortable:

- Regular Vet Check-ups: Senior pets should visit the vet for wellness exams to catch potential issues early.
- Tailored Diet: Older pets may need a special diet to support joint health, weight management, and overall vitality. Ask us for recommendations!
- Joint Support: Keep an eye on mobility. Joint supplements or medications can help alleviate arthritis pain and keep your pet moving comfortably.
- Mental Stimulation: Keep their minds sharp with new toys, interactive play, or puzzle feeders. This can help combat cognitive decline.
- Comfortable Sleeping Spaces: Make sure your pet has a cozy, quiet place to rest, and consider orthopedic beds for extra support.
- Weight Management: Maintaining a healthy weight is crucial to your pet’s overall health, especially for older dogs and cats.
- Monitor Behaviour: Any sudden changes in appetite, drinking habits, or activity levels could be a sign of health issues. Let us know if you notice anything unusual!

As always, we’re here to provide personalized care to help your pet live their best life in their senior years. 🐶🐱

🎂🐾 Hey, fur-friends and hoomans! It’s me, Cake the dog, and today is MY day—National Cake Day! (Not that I’m biased or anything... 😉)

As a pup named Cake, I feel it’s my duty to spread the word about safe and tasty treats that us dogs can enjoy on this very special day. 🎉 While the hoomans get their sugary, frosted cakes (which they are very thankful for ❤️), there are plenty of pet-friendly goodies that’ll keep our tails wagging without any belly aches!

Here are a few safe ideas to celebrate with your pups:
🍎 Apple slices with a dollop of dog-safe peanut butter
🥕 Carrot “cupcakes” (just add a bit of plain yogurt on top!)
🍌 Frozen banana bites for a refreshing twist

And remember, no chocolate or frosting for us, okay? That stuff is only for the hoomans! 🐾 So let’s celebrate National Cake Day with treats that are safe, delicious, and pawsitively fun.
Share your tasty treat photos with me—I’d love to see what you’re enjoying today! 🐶💙

🌲Happy National Take a Hike Day! 🌲

There’s no better way to celebrate the great outdoors than by hitting the trails with your furry friend! Hiking is a fantastic way for both you and your pet to stay active, explore nature, and enjoy some quality time together. 🐾

Before you head out, here are a few tips to keep your pet safe and happy on the trail:
🦴 Pack plenty of water and some pet-friendly snacks.
🧴 Check the trail rules to ensure pets are welcome.
🐕 Keep your pet leashed in unfamiliar areas.
🍂 Watch for hazards like sharp rocks, toxic plants, or wildlife encounters.
And when you get home, give your pup a quick check for any ticks, burrs, or scratches. Let’s make every hike a safe and enjoyable adventure!

Share your hiking photos in the comments—we’d love to see your outdoor adventures! 🐶❤️🌲

🌟 Happy Practice Manager Appreciation Week! 🌟

A huge shoutout to Linda, who has been the heart and soul of our clinics! 💼
When she first joined, it was just one clinic – now, she's practically running an empire (we know of at least 3 clinics she's overseeing)! 😂

Her dedication, leadership, and endless support keep everything running smoothly, and we can always count on her to handle anything that comes her way. Whether it's a last-minute scheduling issue, a client concern, or just keeping us all on track, Linda does it with a smile and a can-do attitude.

Here's to you, Linda – you're not just a practice manager, you're a clinic legend! 🙌🎉
Thank you for all you do!

Today is World Diabetes Day, and we're raising awareness about managing diabetes in our pets. 🐶🐱
Just like humans, dogs and cats can develop diabetes, but with the right tools, we can help them live happy, healthy lives.
One such tool is Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), like the Freestyle Libre system. This small, painless sensor is placed just under your pet’s skin and continuously tracks their blood glucose levels, helping to monitor their diabetes in real-time.

Benefits of CGM for diabetic pets:
✅ Less stress with no need for constant blood tests
✅ More accurate, up-to-date glucose readings
✅ Better management and treatment adjustments
✅ Improved quality of life for your pet

If your dog or cat has diabetes or you’re concerned about their health, ask us about how the Freestyle Libre can make a difference in their care. Let’s work together to give your furry friend the best possible future! 🐾❤️

💙 Happy World Kindness Day—to our friends, our neighbors, and, of course, our beloved animals! At our clinic, we believe kindness starts with compassion and care for every pet that walks through our doors. 💙

Animals show us kindness every day with their loyalty, companionship, and unconditional love. But let’s also remember to be kind to each other! A simple act of kindness can make someone’s day, whether it’s lending a hand, sharing a smile, or offering a word of encouragement. 🐾

Kindness is contagious! When we treat each other with compassion and understanding, we create a stronger, more connected community. Let’s keep the kindness going, today and every day!

Even though the weather may be cooling down, tick season is far from over! Ticks are still active and can transmit diseases like Lyme disease, which is why regular testing and prevention are crucial for your pets. 💉

👉 We recently had a Lyme-positive result from a 4Dx Snap test (as pictured), and it serves as a reminder that ticks are a year-round threat. Early detection is key to effective treatment, so if your pet spends time outdoors, make sure they’re protected with the right tick prevention.

To help keep your pet healthy, we have extended our NexGard promo until December 20th! Call today to take advantage of these great savings!

Today, we pause to honor and remember the courage and sacrifice of those who have served to protect our freedom. On this Remembrance Day, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to the brave men, women, and service animals who have stood alongside them throughout history.

Service animals, from military working dogs to therapy animals, have played a vital role in supporting and protecting those in uniform. Their loyalty, courage, and companionship have brought comfort to many during difficult times.

As we wear our poppies and take a moment of silence, let us remember all those who have given so much in the name of peace. We are forever grateful for their sacrifices and dedication.

Lest we forget.
