Meet Fern! ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿพ

This beautiful little lady came to our hospital for a check-up and vaccines. Our staff couldn't resist soaking up some cuddles from this sweet girl! She was so good for her entire visit, and we are absolutely in love! โค๏ธ

Vaccinating your pets is essential for keeping them happy, healthy, and living long lives! Vaccines protect against deadly diseases like parvovirus, distemper, and rabies, which can be life-threatening, especially for young puppies. They also help prevent the spread of contagious illnesses to other pets and even humans. Plus, staying up to date on vaccinations can save pet owners from costly treatments down the road!

Give your furry friends the best start in lifeโ€”keep them protected with their vaccinations! ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’‰๐Ÿ’•

Fun Fact Friday
Featuring the Ball Python ๐Ÿ

Did you know that Ball Pythons are native to central and western Africa? These incredible snakes are not only found in the wild but also play a significant role in the culture and traditions of regions like Nigeria. In fact, many people in these areas regard Ball Pythons as sacred creatures, going so far as to perform funeral rites for any snake accidentally killed.

One of the most fascinating things about Ball Pythons is their unique defense mechanism. When they feel threatened, they instinctively curl up into a tight ball, tucking their head away from danger. This behavior is what gives them their name! ๐ŸŒ€

Unlike many snake species that lay their eggs and leave, female Ball Pythons stay close to their nests. They curl around their eggs, protecting them and ensuring they stay warm until they hatchโ€”talk about dedicated parenting!

Ball Pythons are also known for their longevity. With proper care, they can live for over 30 years in captivity, making them an amazing long-term companion for snake enthusiasts. ๐Ÿโค๏ธ

If you're thinking of adding one to your family, you're in for a rewarding experience that lasts a lifetime!

๐ŸŒŽHappy Earth Day! ๐ŸŒฑ
Today, we celebrate the incredible planet we call home. From the oceans that breathe life into our skies to the forests that shelter countless creatures (including us), Earth gives us everything โ€” and asks only for care in return.

Let this be a reminder that every small action matters.
โœจ Reduce.

Whether youโ€™re planting a tree, biking instead of driving, or simply taking a moment to appreciate the breeze โ€” it all counts. Letโ€™s keep working toward a cleaner, greener, more sustainable future. ๐Ÿ’š

โœจStaff Spotlightโœจ
Meet Dr. Rachel Manjos!

Dr. Rachel Manjos was born in Hamilton, ON and raised in the town of Lincoln. Her love of nature, wildlife and pets led to her decision to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. Prior to veterinary school, she spent summers at The Owl Foundation in Vineland learning the care and treatment of various owl species.๐Ÿฆ‰

After completing a Bachelor of Science in biological sciences at the University of Guelph, she graduated with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from the Ontario Veterinary College in 2017. Since graduation, Dr. Rachel has developed special interests in the fields of soft tissue surgery and the treatment of exotic animal species. She enjoys providing quality care to pets and forming lasting bonds with their owners.

Recently, she completed a program to be able to responsibly give antimicrobials to bee colonies as she knows how important bees are to our ecosystem!๐Ÿ

Outside of practice, Dr. Rachel enjoys going to the gym, watching movies and taking care of many plants. She shares her home with two cats and two rabbits, who weigh around 2 pounds each!

We're incredibly proud to have Dr. Rachel on our team! Her passion for animals and commitment to their well-being is truly inspiring. Whether she's in the clinic providing expert care or advocating for the health of our environment, Dr. Rachel embodies the values we strive for in our practice.

Join us in celebrating her dedication and hard work! ๐Ÿ’™

๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿพ Happy Easter from Glenridge Animal Hospital! ๐Ÿพ๐ŸŒธ

This Easter, we want to remind all pet parents to keep their furry friends safe and healthy while you celebrate with loved ones. While itโ€™s a time of joy and fun, there are a few Easter-related hazards to watch out for:

๐Ÿซ Chocolate: A definite no-no for pets! Chocolate can be toxic to dogs, cats, and even some small animals. Keep those Easter treats out of reach!

๐ŸŒธ Toxic Plants: Easter lilies, tulips, and other seasonal plants may be beautiful, but they can also be harmful or even fatal to your pets if ingested.

๐Ÿฐ Easter Basket Surprises: Be mindful of small items like plastic grass, which could be a choking hazard or cause digestive issues if ingested.

Wishing you and your pets a safe, joyful, and healthy Easter! ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’

Bunny-Proof Your Home for a Safe and Happy Hopper! ๐Ÿฐ

4. Eliminate Small Hazards๐Ÿ“Ž
Remove small items like rubber bands, paperclips, and coins to prevent choking risks.

5. Offer Safe Chew Toys๐Ÿฅ•
Provide plenty of bunny-approved chew toys to satisfy their natural gnawing instincts.
