A compassionate small animal practice that provides veterinary services for dogs and cats.
Dr. Torabi purchased Britannia Heights Veterinary Clinic in September of 2015. As many of the long term clients witnessed, the clinic was put through a lovely transformation while Dr. Torabi expanded the clinic's footprint. His excitement to share his home away from home continues into his 6th year of ownership. Dr. Torabi continues to welcome both long term and new clients to his veterinary practice.
How cute is this?! This lucky pet parent caught her precious fur baby wagging his tail as he sweetly slept beside her. Dogs dream too, you know? They dream similarly to humans in the sense that they may relive daily experiences during sleep. Have you caught your dog dreaming?

What a little angel.
If your dog ate candy and you act quickly, there is nothing to worry about. The first thing you need to do is keep your pup near you so you can monitor them in case of an emergency, even if they are not showing any symptoms. Signs of a major problem include choking, vomiting, tremors, or intestinal blockage, which isnât noticeable at first. If you know what kind of candy your dog got into, you can look up any toxic ingredients in it to be aware of. If they ingested chocolate, call the poison control hotline or us immediately. Keep them hydrated with plenty of water only after talking with us. Be sure to bring them in to see us so we can check to make sure they are in top shape. Call us at 613-726-2666.

Research concludes that cats cannot have autism; however, there are many behavioral similarities between special-needs cats and humans with autism. Since autism is focused on human behavior, cats cannot be diagnosed, but they sometimes exhibit autism spectrum traits. Examples include becoming obsessed with hunting or chasing certain things, enjoying their alone time, being easily overstimulated, easily spooked by noises or bright lights, and even being overwhelmed by too much attention. If you notice any strange behavior in your kitty, bring them in for a check-up with us so that we can identify if there are any issues affecting your catâs behavior.

Cats are obligate carnivores, meaning their diet consists of 70% meat protein. Egg whites contain an abundance of protein while the yolk is a great source of healthy fats, but eggs contain more benefits than just protein! They also contain amino acids that boost vision, digestion, heart function, immunity, pregnancy, and fetal development. Eggs also have large amounts of vitamins that provide energy and antioxidants as well as minerals that promote immune health! While it may be a good treat for your kitty, an egg is not a proper meal and lacks all the nutrients your feline friend needs to thrive. Remember, an active 10lb cat needs an average of 250 calories a day. If you have questions about your catâs nutrition, give us a call at 613-726-2666.
Small daily activities you can incorporate into your pet's routine are taking your dog for regular walks, playing fetch, or engaging in interactive play sessions with toys. Cats enjoy scratching posts, puzzle toys, or even a window perch to observe the outside world. These activities help maintain a healthy weight, prevent boredom, reduce stress, and enhance their overall quality of life.

Puppy socialization is one of the essential ingredients for a happy, well-behaved, and confident dog. Missing out on socialization during puppyhood can contribute to behaviour issues like leash reactivity and fear-based aggression. A week after your puppy has had their first round of vaccines, it's a good time to start doing puppy-safe socialization activities. You should never bring your puppy to a dog park or other area where groups of dogs frequently gather until your pup has received all of their vaccinations in their initial puppy series (around 17 weeks old). Is it time to get your pet vaccinated? Schedule a vaccination appointment with us today at 613-726-2666.
