As the holidays are upon us, this is a gentle reminder to keep pet safety in mind. Many festive foods, decorations, and plants can pose hidden risks to our pets. 🎄🐾 Some common holiday foods are not safe for dogs and cats. Chocolate is a well-known toxin and can be tempting even when wrapped as a gift. 🍫🚫 Turkey bones, grapes, and alcohol are also frequent causes of holiday-related veterinary and emergency visits.🐶🐱⚠️

Seasonal décor and plants can also cause issues if ingested. Holly, poinsettias, mistletoe, potpourri, and Christmas tree water may lead to drooling, stomach upset, or vomiting. 🌿✨ To help prevent accidents, secure trash cans and keep decorations, candles, wrapping paper, and tinsel out of reach, as tinsel can cause serious gastrointestinal concerns. 🎁 With a little extra awareness and preparation, we can help keep the holidays safe and enjoyable for pets and their families. 💚 Merry Christmas from our pack to yours! 🎅🎄🐾

As we welcome the winter solstice, we’re sending warm wishes to our community. ❄️✨ This time of year reminds us to slow down, rest, and trust that brighter days are ahead.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, winter is associated with the Water 💧 element, which supports the kidney and bladder systems. During the colder months, gentle nourishment and proper hydration can help support our pets’ overall well-being. Adding bone broth to meals is one simple way to offer extra support. 🥣🐾

As temperatures drop, keeping pets warm and comfortable becomes especially important. Protect their paws from salt and ice, and consider shorter, more frequent walks to help them stay safe and cozy. 🐕🧣🥾

May this season bring a sense of peace, balance, and quiet moments of care for you and your pet(s). 🤍

Safety first! ⚠️🐶 During National Safe Toys and Gifts Month, it’s a great reminder that not all toys and chews are right for every dog. Some hard chews and toys can pose risks to teeth, gums, and overall health, especially for puppies, seniors, or dogs with dental concerns. 🦷

Always choose toys that are appropriate for your dog’s size, age, and chewing style, and when in doubt, check with your veterinarian about what options are safest for your pup’s individual needs. 🐾🦴💚

It’s National Cat 🐱 Lovers’ Month 🐈 and we’re excited to share something special with our feline-loving community. A new 28-minute documentary on Coal, Canada’s 🐈‍⬛ 🇨🇦 last Parliament Hill cat, was released on November 14, 2025 and it’s now available for everyone to watch free of charge. ❤️🐾

Coal was deeply loved by many and we’re honoured that Dr. Sherebrin, who was part of Coal’s healthcare team, appears in the film. Our hospital 🏥✨ is also mentioned, making this release especially meaningful to us. 🥰

If you’re a cat lover, a history lover, or someone who appreciates the bond we share with animals, this is a beautiful piece to enjoy during National Cat Lovers’ Month.

Birch sugar is another name for xylitol, a sweetener that’s highly toxic to dogs, even in very small amounts. ⚠️🐶 It’s often found in sugar-free gum, candy, peanut butter, baked goods, mints, toothpaste, and some vitamins.🍬🪥 🥜

If ingested, xylitol can cause a dangerous drop in blood sugar and even liver failure. Symptoms can appear within minutes. If you ever suspect your dog has eaten something containing birch sugar/xylitol, seek emergency veterinary care immediately. 🩺🏥

Keep all sugar-free products safely out of reach and always double-check ingredient labels. 🔍🛑

Many dogs 🐕 get so relaxed during acupuncture that they fall asleep and there’s a good reason for it. 😴🐾

According to traditional Chinese medicine, the body’s health depends on the smooth flow of Qi (vital energy) through channels called meridians. Acupuncture points give trained practitioners like Dr Sherebrin, access to these pathways to help restore balance and support wellness. 🌿✨

Modern research now shows that these points have a higher density of nerve endings, immune cells, tiny blood vessels, and lymphatics, which is why stimulating them can have such powerful effects.

Acupuncture encourages the release of beta-endorphins (natural pain relievers), serotonin (mood support), and other neurotransmitters and hormones that reduce inflammation, improve circulation, ease muscle tension, and support organ function. 💚

For many pets, this shift into calm and comfort is so profound… they drift right off to sleep during the treatment. 😌 If you’re curious whether acupuncture could help your pet, we’re happy to answer any questions. 😊🐶

November is National Senior Pet Month! ❤️🐾 As pets age, their needs change and sometimes, the signs of discomfort can be subtle. If your furry friend is laying down to eat or drink, moving more slowly, avoiding stairs, or licking a particular area, it could be a sign they’re in pain. 🐶🐱

This month is the perfect reminder to check in on your senior pet’s wellness. Regular exams, mobility assessments, and integrative therapies like acupuncture or laser therapy can make a world of difference in their comfort and quality of life. ✨

Let’s help every senior pet stay active, happy, and pain-free for as long as possible! 🩺💕
