Sharing is Caring… Unless We’re Talking About Fleas!

Let’s keep those pesky pests away! Here are a few tips for effective flea prevention:

𝗥𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀: Make sure your pet is up-to-date with their flea prevention meds. It's like sunscreen for your fur baby!

𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗨𝗽: Wash blankets, beds, and toys regularly. Fleas love a good party, so let’s not invite them!

𝗩𝗮𝗰𝘂𝘂𝗺 𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗣𝗿𝗼: Give those carpets and upholstery a good once-over. You might find some crumbs, but you’ll definitely kick those fleas to the curb!

𝗢𝘂𝘁𝗱𝗼𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸: If your kitty or pup loves the great outdoors, check them for fleas after each adventure. They might be bringing home unwanted guests!

𝗩𝗲𝘁 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘀: Regular check-ups can help catch any flea problems before they start.

Let’s keep our cuddles flea-free and our blankets cozy! Share the love, not the fleas! Call us today to discuss the best treatment plan for your pet!

🎉🐾 Attention Pet Parents! 🐾🎉

We’re 𝘱𝘢𝘸𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘺 thrilled to announce a $25 rebate for your furry friends on Hillsrebates.ca! 🐶💸 Just buy a full case of Prescription Diet Canine cans, and you could fetch that sweet cash back (one rebate per household, please—no doggy loopholes allowed)! Valid until December 31st, 2024!

Why is canned food the canine equivalent of a five-star restaurant, you ask?

Well...

𝗛𝘆𝗱𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗼: Keeps your pup hydrated without them needing to chug a gallon of water!

𝗖𝗵𝗲𝘄 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲: Great for those pups who think kibble is a chew toy rather than dinner.

𝗦𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁-𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹: For our seasoned seniors who might have lost their “sniff game”—the smell of canned food might just bring back that old chow-down enthusiasm!

𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗧𝘂𝗺𝗺𝘆, 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝗣𝘂𝗽: With all that moisture, they'll feel like they’ve just feasted at a doggy buffet!

𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀-𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗦𝗻𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴: Use it for lick mats or Kongs—perfect for keeping them busy and distracted! (Especially if your dog thinks “metabolism” is just a fancy word for “snack time!”)

𝗣𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗴𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗲: Turn meds into meatballs—who wouldn’t want to take their medicine when it’s wrapped in deliciousness?

So let’s get those cans rolling and make mealtime exciting! Your pup will thank you with slobbery kisses and tail wags (and maybe a side-eye if you’re not sharing)! 🐕❤️

🐾 Why did the cat hang around the treat cupboard?

•
•
•

Because it was hoping to get a “paw-some” surprise! 😸

😺 And why did the cat always hang around the computer? Because it wanted to keep an eye on the mouse! 🖱️😂

Alright, we’ll stop there! But we can’t forget to give a shout out to Bowie, the beautiful bengal cat!

🎃👻 Happy Howl-o-Ween from all of us at Glenridge Animal Hospital and Referral Centre! 🐾🧡

It’s that spooky time of year again! While you're out trick-or-treating, don’t forget to keep your furry friends safe. Here are some quick tips to ensure a paw-sitively fun Halloween:

Keep candy out of reach! Chocolate and certain candies can be harmful to pets.

Costume caution: If your pet loves dressing up, make sure their costume fits well and doesn’t restrict movement.

Safe space: Create a quiet area for your pets if the doorbell rings too often!

We’d love to see your pet in their Halloween costume! Share a pic in the comments! 📸🐶🐱

Have a spooktacular and safe Halloween! 🕷️✨

Meet the Guinea Pig!

These adorable little furballs are more than just cute faces; they’re loving pets with big personalities!

𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀: Guinea pigs are incredibly social animals. They thrive in pairs or small groups, so if you adopt one, it is best to bring them home a buddy!

𝗩𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀: Did you know they "talk"? Guinea pigs make a variety of sounds, from happy purrs to curious chirps. Each sound has its own meaning!

𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗻: With proper care, guinea pigs can live 5-7 years (or even longer!). They need a healthy diet, regular vet check-ups, and lots of love.

𝗩𝗲𝗴𝗴𝗶𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀: Their diet consists mainly of hay, fresh veggies, and a small amount of pellets. Favorites include bell peppers, kale, and romaine lettuce.

𝗨𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀: There are many breeds, each with unique coats—like the fluffy Peruvian or the adorable Abyssinian with its rosettes.

Guinea pigs are known for their gentle and friendly nature, making them fantastic companions for kids and adults alike. They may not be as low-maintenance as some other pets, but their loving personalities and adorable antics make every moment worth it!

If you're considering adding a furry friend to your family, think about the delightful guinea pig! They might just steal your heart! 🥺💕

We love it when Casper, the friendly floof, comes to visit!

Haley couldn’t resist bringing him to the treatment area to meet the rest of our staff.

Our team prides itself on being friendly, helpful,
And greeting you with a smile!

We know how stressful it can be to visit the vet.

Did you know that today is National Pet Obesity Awareness Day? Weight management is an important part of our check ups both annually and when you come to visit. Using the 9-point body condition score system, the ideal body condition is defined as a visible waist (when viewed from above) and abdominal tuck (side profile), and easily palpated ribs. An ideal body condition score is defined as 4-5 for dogs, and 5 for cats. Pets with a body condition of 6 or 7 are considered to be overweight and pets with a body condition score of 8 or 9 are considered obese. Factors that increase the likelihood of a pet becoming overweight/obese include: 1. Age 2. Genetics 3. Excess caloric intake 4. Low activity Play time and walks are great connection time and exercise! And while we know how fun it is to see our pets enjoying treats, and how hard it is to resist their adorable begging faces at the dinner table, moderation is key. Let’s keep our pets happy and healthy all year round. Not sure if you’re on the right track?
