Welcome Wednesday!!
Please join us in welcoming our newest team member Angie!! Angie is such a warm and wonderful addition to our team and we are so lucky to have her 💕
Please say hello and welcome when you see her smiling face at reception!

From a young age Angie has always had a deep love for animals, and her home has never been without a furry family member.
A music enthusiast at heart, she graduated from Humber’s radio broadcasting program and worked in the industry for a few years before taking time off to raise her two children.

In 2022, Angie ventured into the veterinary world and started working at an emergency animal hospital where she was instantly hooked. She strives to ensure every visit is a positive experience for both the client snd patient.

Angie shares her home with her husband, two daughters, and two giant fluff balls. Piper, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and Maverick, a Newfoundland. When she’s not in the clinic, Angie enjoys attending concerts, being out on the water, and making memories with her family.

Happy International Chocolate Day! This day is to honour the birthday of Milton Hershey, the founder of Hershey Chocolate Company!!

Dr. Kylie and Dr. Hilary brought in chocolate for the staff to share! However… it’s not to be shared with our furry friends, such as Moon and Leonard!

Remember that chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine which is toxic to dogs. They can cause increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, agitation, tremors and seizures. The amount of chocolate that is toxic varies with the amount eaten, the type of chocolate. Please keep chocolate treats away from your pets! If you have any concerns or questions, you can reach out to our veterinary team!

Pet Poison Helpline can also be called 1-800-213-6680 if you have a pet who ingests chocolate!

Our final vaccination to discuss is Rabies!

Rabies is a viral disease that can infect all warm-blooded animals, including dogs, cats and humans. This is a fatal disease with no cure. It is transmitted through saliva of infected animals, most commonly through bites or saliva entering open wounds on the skin. Rabies virus reservoirs are skunks, raccoons, foxes and bats. The incubation period from bite wound to appearance of symptoms is around 10 days. The clinical signs include agitation, aggression, drooling, coma and death.
Rabies can only be diagnosed by direct examination of the brain.
If you are concerned about a bite in a human, please contact the Public Health department. If you are concerned about a bite in your dog or cat, please contact our veterinary team and we can assist you with the next steps.
For more information go to:
rabiesalliance.org
Or look at the World Health Organization information.
Stay tuned for more information on September 28th , which is World Rabies Day!

Lyme disease is caused by a bacteria 🦠 Borrelia burgdorferi that is transmitted to dogs through the bite of an infected deer tick (black legged tick). The disease can cause swelling and pain in dogs joints and leads to fever and loss of appetite. This bacteria can also affect their kidneys, and this is often fatal. There are easy ways to prevent this disease, including topical and oral tick prevention, tick removal tools and Lyme vaccine. If you are concerned about your pets’ risks, contact our veterinary care team and we will be happy to help!

Leptospirosis is a bacteria 🦠 found in the urine of wildlife and other mammals. Dogs can become infected by drinking or swimming in stagnant, contaminated water. This bacteria causes liver and kidney failure. If diagnosed early, it can be treated with antibiotics, but most patients require intensive care in the veterinarian hospital. This specific disease is also zoonotic, meaning it can be transmitted to humans.
Leptospirosis vaccine is one of the optional vaccinations available and is recommended if your dog likes the water and tends to swim and drink any outside water. If you have any questions, please reach out to one of our veterinary team members!

The Bordetella vaccine helps protect dogs against Kennel Cough and minimize the symptoms of the disease. There are multiple viruses and bacteria that cause Kennel cough, Bordatella bronchiseptica amongst one of them.

If your dog goes to doggy daycare, dog parks, boarding facilities, dog daycare, or training classes, then they are at risk for contracting this disease. Typically their cough lasts for 1-2 weeks and will generally resolve on their own, however, in more serious cases, lethargy and pneumonia.

More questions?? Please reach out to our team and they would be more than happy to help you!

To continue with our vaccine posts, we are going to tell a little more about the Da2pp combination vaccine for dogs!

Da2pp is an acronym for Distemper, Adenovirus, Parvovirus and Parainfluenza virus! This is a core vaccine for dogs and we initiate the series when they are puppies. They usually get the vaccine at 8, 12 and 16 weeks of age and us continued every 1-3 years as adults! Distemper is a neurological disease, adenovirus affects the liver, parvovirus affects the gastrointestinal system and parainfluenza virus is one of the components of Kennel cough.

Have any questions or concerns about vaccines? Our veterinary team will be happy to answer them! Please contact our clinic today!

Let’s take the time to appreciate all the black cats out there! They have often been linked to superstitions such as being associated with witchcraft or bringing bad luck. This has made it difficult to adopt them out. Let’s let everyone know how amazing they are!

National Check the Chip Day

This day is to remind families to have their pets’ microchip checked to make sure it is still present and has up to date registration information. This information is vital to help reunite lost pets with their families!

Microchip implants provide permanent identification for your pets. They are no bigger than a large grain of rice! They are easily inserted under the skin between the shoulder blades using a sterile microchip needle.

The new travel regulations for dogs entering the United States requires your pet to have an ISO (International Standards Organization) microchip, be over 6 months of age, be up to date on Rabies vaccination and have a CDC dog import form filled out.

Have more questions? Please reach out to our veterinary team and they will be happy to assist you!

What is the Felv Vaccine? What does it stand for?

Feline leukemia virus infects cats and causes a variety of diseases in addition to leukemia. It makes cats susceptible to infections and disease, including causing cancers, because it suppresses their immune system. It is transmitted between cats through the exchange of bodily fluids, such as grooming. It is easy to diagnose, but there is no cure for it. The vaccine is an optional vaccine based on a cat's lifestyle and risk factors.

This particular vaccination is recommend for all kittens, multicat households and for any cats that spend time outdoors. If you think your cat is at risk and are interested in more information, please contact our veterinary care team!
