This common myth isn't entirely accurate! While some dogs do eat grass and may eventually vomit, studies suggest that they might actually be seeking out the fiber or simply enjoying the taste. Dogs are curious creatures, and snacking on grass could just be part of their natural behavior. Plus, it's important to ensure your pup isn’t eating treated or harmful plants while they explore! Keeping an eye on what your dog eats is key to their health and happiness. Always consult us at 519-245-1001 if you're unsure about any behavior or if it becomes frequent!

Happy Vet Tech Week! 🐾

Veterinary technicians are the heart of every veterinary clinic. When no one's looking, they are doing just a little extra for your pets. They are trained to care for all patients from pediatric to senior, and they do it with compassion and professionalism. They are your pet’s admit nurse, triage nurse, lab technician, radiology technician, dental hygienist, doctor’s assistant, surgical nurse, anesthetist, physical therapist, pharmacy technician, midwife, behaviourist, wound care nurse, and coroner. They are advocates, care takers, protectors, teachers and friends to all their patients and their families. We would like to thank all of the technicians at Caradoc for their hard work, dedication and passion. We invite you to join us in celebrating these outstanding team members. Take a moment to thank your veterinary technician this month!

Many people believe that cats are low-maintenance pets and don't require regular vet checkups. However, this myth could not be further from the truth! Just like humans, felines need routine health exams to catch any potential issues early. Regular checkups help ensure your furry friend stays healthy and happy for years to come. Don’t forget that preventative care is crucial in maintaining their well-being!

Tis the season for tick checks!

The fall tick bloom is in full swing. This time of year, adult Blacklegged ticks (deer ticks) are very active searching for a meal before winter. Ensure you continue your pet's tick control product for 12 months of the year, as tick populations have grown significantly in the last several years and our winters are getting milder. Also consider the Lyme vaccine, so they can have dual protection against Lyme disease.

We love this fun fact! Their incredible sense of hearing allows them to pick up on sounds we often miss. It's one of the many reasons they're such great companions and helpers. Whether they're alerting us to potential dangers or simply enjoying the call of nature, our furry friends experience the world in a way that’s truly remarkable.
