👻Did you know we have a resident ghost named Jerry? 👻
Once a year he shows himself to get an annual wellness check. The rest of the year you can’t see him; but he’s turning on faucets, standing on the scale, opening doors and knocking things over. You know, normal ghost things!
This year, he let me document his vet visit!! How Boo-tastic!!!

Jerry knows the benefit of annual exams and making sure he is in top-top shape for spooky season 👻🎃

Give us a call to book your pet in for an annual wellness exam! Who knows, maybe you’ll get to see Jerry haunting the clinic while you’re here! 👻

Otto was a little less enthused to see us than we were to see him 👀

This cutie came in for a health check and to get his nails trimmed. We may have used that as an excuse to get the best puppy cuddles in 🤍

We can’t wait to see Otto again and watch this cute beastie grow up!

With Turkey Day fast approaching, here are some common things that we recommend keeping your pets away from to keep them safe during the festivities:

🦃Thanksgiving feast ~ Even an un-intentional gobble of Thanksgiving delicacies can lead to an emergency. From turkey bones to gravy with mashed potatoes and everything in between, it is best to keep your turkey dinner on your plate not in their bowls.

🦃 Fall décor ~ While it is adding to the aesthetic of the holiday, some décor can look like fun toys (or even snacks) to curious pets. Accidental ingestion of fall décor can lead to major gastrointestinal problems and an emergency visit.

🦃 Scented Candles/Diffusers ~ Fall scents are probably the best scents; who doesn’t love bath and body works this time of year!? But make sure that whatever candle, diffuser or essential oils you are using are pet safe. If you have birds in your home, refrain from using any kind of candles or diffusers to prevent toxicity!

🦃 Spiked Drinks/Alcoholic Beverages ~ Make sure to keep the apple cider for people not pets! Alcohol can cause not only inebriation but major health problems with all our furry guests.

🦃 Doors! ~ The holidays are a stressful time with people coming and going. Make sure that with all the commotion from company that you are keeping your pets secure in your home or yard. Ensure that they have proper ID tags or microchips just in case they do manage to slip out the door during all the holiday commotion.

Please remember that we will be closed for the Thanksgiving weekend. If you are having an emergency and need a vet, call one of the local emergency clinics:
Boreal Veterinary Center

🐕Responsible Dog Ownership Day🐕
Proactive pet parents are responsible pet parents!
Here are some tips to ensure that you are being as responsible as you can be with your best friend 🐶

🦴 Precautionary measures like an ID tag and/or microchip help them get home if they ever stray too far.

🎾 Pick pet-safe plants and store them out of reach of curious paws and snouts.

🦴 Being a responsible dog owner means giving your pup a safe, loving home where they can wag with confidence

🎾 Responsible pet parents always pick up after their furry friends! Before you head out on your next tail-wagging adventure, grab those bags and help keep your community clean.

🦴 Annual check-ups can help your pet live a longer, healthier life? These routine visits allow your veterinary team to catch and treat emerging health problems early. Ask your veterinarian how you can be better prepared for the unexpected!

🎾 At your next check up, make sure that you talk to your vet team about an Exam Day Offer of Trupanion insurance! Making sure that you are prepared for anything with your pet is the best way to be a responsible pet pawrent!

Did you know that the City of Spruce Grove has updated their bylaws around their pet residents?
As the keepers of our furry residents, it is important to be considerate neighbours while keeping our pets as safe as possible.

Here are some of the most important changes from the updated Responsible Pet Ownership By-law:
~No pet may be at large or be considered a nuisance. This includes excessive barking, howling and any pet being loose off of private property.
~Ensuring that all pets have proper identification that is legible with an up to date phone number any time they are off of private property. That includes cats!
~No pets are permitted on playground areas but are allowed in most public spaces. However, they must be leashed unless otherwise posted.
~A maximum of 5 pets are allowed in each household within city limits.
~Aggressive and vicious animals are not allowed in public unless they are muzzled, leashed and accompanied by someone over 16.
