This week, our American counterparts celebrate what they call, “Veterinary Receptionists Week” 💕

And while here in Canada we do have an “Administrative Professionals DAY” - we think that our Client Care Representatives and our Office Admin staff should be celebrated for more than just 24 hours….maybe even more than 7 days!! We celebrate them EVERY SECOND, EVERY DAY!! 🐾

Our picture is only of Skyler and Jodi, but all of our CCR and Office Admin team are the FACE of our clinic. The ones who truly “see” our clients when they bring their pets to us for care. From the joy of a new puppy or kitten, to the worry of a medical issue, to the sorrow at the end of a pet’s journey. 💕 Our doctors and RVT’s give compassionate care to the pets - and our “front of house” staff give the very best to care for the PEOPLE.

To all our CCR and Office Administrative team - today, and every day - we SEE you! We see what you do! We see how you help! And we see how you make a difference to our team, our clinic, and to our clients and their pets!

🐾 Thank you, thank you!! 🐾

🐰 The EASTER BUNNY is coming! 🐰

Which also means a long weekend for us! We wanted to remind you that our clinic will be CLOSED for Good Friday, as well as for the weekend. We will re-open on Easter Monday for our usual hours.

Please check food and prescriptions and contact us right away if you need anything! 🐣

Please take a quick peek at some of the Easter Tips below to help ensure that it is a safe and happy holiday for all of our furry friends! 🐾

We wish all our clients and patients a very Happy Easter - we hope the Easter Bunny makes a stop with some extra special sweet (pet friendly) treats! 🍬

🩵 “Oakley” has some news to share! 🩵

Spring is finally on the way!

And that means, so are the TICKS!

It is time to start thinking about enjoying the outdoors with your pet during the warmer months. Parasite prevention is an important part of your pet’s health and wellbeing.

Spring is a good time to give your pet their biannual dewormer in addition to flea and tick prevention over the spring and summer months.

We have seen an increase in fleas in late summer and early fall over the past couple years, it is important to keep your pet and therefore your home free of these jumping bugs too!

Oakley got a head start and he got his first dose of Bravecto a few weeks ago! That particular medication covers fleas and ticks for 12 weeks! His family also keeps him dewormed regularly for internal parasites. 🩵

If you wish to discuss a parasite prevention plan for your pet or if you plan to travel out of the province, you can phone us at 780-963-9478. You can also email your order to [email protected] or use the refill function on your PetDesk App. It is helpful to provide your pet's current weight when you contact us.

The snow will be melted before you know it, we promise! Let us help your pet be prepared for an awesome summer! ☀️

🐾 Please contact the clinic soon to place your order for prevention! 🐾

🤩 CONGRATULATIONS Christine!! You’re a superstar! 🤩

This prestigious award “recognizes members who have made significant contributions to the veterinary profession. Christine exemplifies the core values of the ABVTA - approachability, integrity, professionalism, and teamwork - while delivering compassionate care to animals. She is dedicated to promoting inclusivity and advocating for pets and their owners.”

Christine had this to say upon receiving this award:

“I am both honored and humbled by this acknowledgment. My current team at Yellowhead Veterinary Clinic has encouraged and supported my development in more ways than one and I value everyone who I work with. Along the way of my 20 years as an active RVT in Alberta and Ontario, I have had countless people help me to get to this place. Part of this award is because of all of you.”

Some our our staff was able to represent our work family at the awards banquet, and took some fun pictures to share!

Christine, we join the ABVTA in being so proud to celebrate your commitment to our team, the profession, and the community you serve! You are inspiring and we are so grateful for your compassion and your leadership!

🩵 TEAM TRAINING DAY! 🩵

A month ago, with the support of our clients, we closed our clinic doors for one day and held our annual team retreat!

This is always a great time to refresh and refocus, and remind ourselves that we are a work family. 🐾

This year’s retreat included workshops on parasite prevention plans, communication skills, new veterinary diets, and CPR.

Our leadership team always makes this day rewarding and interactive and we are grateful for their hard work!

Check out some of our pictures! The CPR case studies are always a clinic favorite!

Thank you to our clients for allowing us the time to spend the day together.

🐱 Learning + Relationship = Compassionate Care for our clients and pets! 🐶

🩵 Did you know that we offer Wellness Appointments on Saturdays? 🩵

“Remo” knows!

This sweet 9 month old came in to see our Wellness RVT, Chantelle, on a Saturday morning for his health assessment and was such a well behaved boy! 🐾

He was eager to receive treats as Chantelle discussed several aspects of wellness with his owners - including vaccinations, diet, dental care, parasite prevention, and behavior.

Chantelle also confirmed placement of Remo’s microchip identification, and answered some of the owner’s questions about neutering.

We have a great team of Wellness RVTs who work alongside our doctors to give quality care and counsel to owners on their healthy patients!

It was a positive visit for Remo and we look forward to seeing him again!

If Saturday mornings are a good time for your schedule and need a wellness appointment booked for your pet - give us a call! Chantelle or Serena would love to help! 🐶

🩵 With the cooler weather, it may be a “stay-cation” kind of feel for the long weekend coming up! 🩵

Whatever you plan on doing, please note that our clinic will be closed for the Family Day weekend. Contact us if you need prescriptions or food orders prior to Friday! 🐶🐱

And don’t forget we will also be closed for our Team retreat on Wednesday!

Stay warm and cozy - and remember that the cooler temperatures are hard on our furry friends and their paws - dress for the weather when out for a walk this week! 🐾

🎄We are getting into the Christmas Spirit! 🎄

It is always such a fun night when you get to celebrate with your work family! Dr. Kendra strategically plans our Christmas party early so that we can all relax and enjoy some down time together before the “hustle and bustle” of the holiday season. ❤️

We had an evening filled with food and fun! Special thanks to Esther from Resin Creations Canada! She patiently taught our group how to make some unique cutting boards, crafted from our own design and color choices.

Thank you to all our supportive clients who let us close early for one night to enjoy our time together! 🎄

Dr. Ed is very supportive of our Wellness RVTs and we have appreciated his support as we have implemented the wellness program in our clinic.

He has been so encouraging in allowing our mobilized RVTs the chance to excel in this part of their scope of practice! 🐾

We know he has seen evolution in the Veterinary Industry as he has served thousands of clients and patients over the years, and we appreciate his willingness to be such a great team player!

🩵 Thank you Dr. Ed! 🩵

🐾 “Please….can I have some more?” 🐾

Sweet “Copper” came in for his wellness appointment and vaccines with our RVT Chantelle, and was such a happy boy!

He LOVED his snacks and the Feliway spray on his towel! These are just some of the techniques that we use to promote a “purr-fectly positive” experience with our team! 🐱

For Copper, it was decided that a microchip implant for identification was warranted, as his previous tattoo ID is now heavily faded. We wouldn’t want this gentle boy to get misplaced from his family!

Chantelle used some xylocaine cream (a numbing agent) on his skin prior to administering the microchip and Copper was so focused on his snacks that he didn’t even feel a thing! 🩵

Another successful, fear-free visit! Thanks for visiting Copper! 🐾
