Increasing the chances of survival in an emergency like a fire, flood, or tornado depends on proper planning and preparedness. Pets are especially vulnerable in emergencies and when an evacuation takes place. Keep in mind that what is best for you is usually what is best for your pet.

Just a heads up that we will be closed Monday May 20th for the long weekend! Please stay safe if camping, and remember to always keep an eye on your dog and to NOT feed bacon! 💚💚 As always, if you have an emergency, please call us at 403-845-2121 and leave a message and the vet will call you right back 💚💚

Better share this one again! Please remember to keep a close eye on your pets while out camping, and as much as they give you those puppy eyes, please DO NOT give them your bacon💚💚 Have fun and stay safe this May Long weekend💚

As it is official camping season now with May Long, we would like to remind everyone what we end up seeing pets (mainly dogs) for emergencies! Please keep a close eye on your pet while out camping as they tend to find the things that aren’t good for them!

Here is a list of common camping problems we always see!
1)Dog fights-even best dog friends tend to fight
2)Drug toxicity’s! It is way more common than you would think, and please be honest with us, trust me, we won’t judge, as they get their noses into everything
3)Bacon/grease/foods not normally eaten-gives one heck of a tummy ache-pancreatitis is very very common and hurts and needs IV fluids and medications!

Show us your chihuahuas 💚💚

Today is Chihuahua Appreciation day.
The Chihuahua, a breed that traces its roots back to Mexico over 3000 years ago, holds a significant place as one of the oldest dog breeds in existence.
Chihuahuas are also the smallest dog breeds in the world. While they may be small in size, they are big in personality. They are known for their feisty and independent attitudes.
They are intelligent, affectionate, loyal, and playful, making great companion dogs. They love attention and are good family pets, and they can become very attached to their owners.
Chihuahuas can be strong-willed without proper human leadership. Owners should socialize them well and train them with consistent and positive reinforcement.
Max & Molly Minnie treats are a perfect reward for training this small dog.
