Tick Awareness ‼️
Tick questing refers to the behaviour exhibited by ticks when they actively seek out hosts. Ticks do not jump or fly, instead they wait on tips of grasses, shrubs, or leaf litters, extending their front legs in a questing position. When a host brushes past, the tick grabs onto it, attaches itself, and begins feeding on its blood.
Enjoy our best tick questing impressions, and if you have not started your pets tick prevention yet, it’s not too late. Give us a call today!

A day in the life of Gerty and Gotem 🐾
Gerty and Gotem are our wonderful clinic cats, and a super important part of our team. A typical day starts with breakfast, of course the most important meal of the day. After breakfast, Gotem usually makes himself at home on the heat mat, which is for our surgery patients, and he may or may not move when our patients need it. It’s a very important job keeping our patients warm. Gerty will snuggle in on Teclas desk, to supervise her and make sure she is staying on task 😉
Lunch time is a favourite time, if you don’t eat fast you are very likely to lose a bite or two of your lunch to Gerty and Gotem. I food is safe.
3pm is their mid day snack time, and they will let us know if we are late by pacing and yelling. They enjoy their canned food on their lick mats 😋 usually it is time to nap again, until around 5pm when it’s time for the treat game. Gerty is an absolute star at it and loves to gallop across the treatment room floor chasing and catching treats.
We hope you enjoy watching their day! 🐱
Thanks to all of our wonderful blood donors for coming out today, you are all super hero’s 🩸 🩸 🩸

Canine Periodontal disease is one of the most common and serious pet health problems, affecting approximately 80% of dogs by the age of 3. At-home prevention is as important as regular teeth cleaning by veterinarians. Unless you provide teeth cleaning for your dog at home, periodontal disease will progress regardless of the care provided by your veterinarian.
The key to management of gum disease in dogs is prevention! As long as the surfaces of the teeth are cleaned frequently, the gums will stay healthy. There are several home care options to choose from and anything you can do to help prevent plaque and tartar buildup will be beneficial.
Brushing your dogs teeth at home is the single most effective way to keep gums healthy and plaque controlled.
Chew treats can also be helpful in the prevention of plaque and tartar accumulation. It is not recommended that dogs chew on dried natural bones, as they are often associated with broken teeth and damaged gums.
From now until the end of February we are offering discounts on dental cleanings, give us a call to schedule your pets dental check up today! (204) 444-3615
Shadow wanted to let everyone know that we have the good kind of treats! 😋
