Know how to tell if a dog is suffering from heatstroke - regardless of whether they are in a car or not 😉

Know the signs of heat stroke in dogs and what to do. Download and save this photo (& mark it as a favourite) in case you need it as a reference. Educate yourself and pass along this very valuable knowledge 🙌

Not every dog in a car is at risk and not every dog out of a car is safe from the heat. Recognizing these symptoms could be life saving 😊

Pet Manners - 1 spot left - starts Tuesday 24th at 4:30pm - located in Rossland!

We have one spot left in our Pet Manners class, starting Jan 24th at 4:30pm. The class will be held at Impulazi Ranch. It will be one hour long and run for 6 weeks.

The class will be held inside an unheated barn on the farm. This means you will need a 4x4 or all wheel drive vehicle and good clothing :)
The price for all 6 classes is $250 plus GST ($262.50).

Class location: In Tuition Animal Training & Behaviour, (aka Impulazi Ranch) 455 Malde Creek Road, Rossland, BC https://goo.gl/maps/yrFkv8GDHqBAdnLz8

If the weather is too cold or if the roads are not drivable then I will hold the class on Zoom instead. Class support will be available on Google Docs or Facebook for the 6 weeks of class. This means that if you miss a class due to shift work or illness, then you will still be able to watch videos and read a class summary.

We will cover: boundaries (where your dog has a super solid place to go for help with having visitors over, eating your meals in peace, helps them to generally relax and much more), loose leash walking, polite greetings, listening with distractions and more!

Amazing!

Through sickness and health...here is your feel good story of the day 😁

Today was a first for our hospital. We often have people ask if they can visit the patients they dropped off, but today we had our first animal visitor! For the safety of our patients we do not accommodate visitation requests, but in this case we had to make an exception!

This Canada goose, we refer to as Arnold, lives on a pond near our facility. He is part of a mated pair that have been together for several years. They are totally wild and usually keep to themselves when people are around, but yesterday our staff noticed that Arnold had developed a significant limp and was continuously falling over. With some effort we were able to catch Arnold and bring him in for a veterinary exam, one of the "perks" of having a wildlife hospital in your backyard. Upon exam our veterinary team found that he had two open-fractures on his foot. This means that the tissue and skin has been pulled away leaving the bone exposed. Our best guess is that a Snapping turtle or other predator attacked him while swimming. In order to save the foot, and give him a chance at survival, we knew we had to perform surgery to amputate one of the digits and suture the other wound closed. We gave Arnold antibiotics and pain medications and fasted him for surgery the next morning.

Today, as we prepared to sedate Arnold and get him ready for surgery, we heard a faint tapping at the clinic door. We turned to see that his mate had waddled up onto the porch and was attempting to break into our clinic! She had somehow located him and was agitated that she could not get inside. She remained there throughout the entire procedure, watching us work, never moving from the doorway.

Thankfully the surgery went well and we expect the foot to heal with continued treatment and time. Once Arnold woke from anesthesia and the wound was closed and bandaged, we decided to let him recover by the doorway so that he could see his mate. We opened the door and gave Arnold his flow-by oxygen in the doorway. His mate immediately calmed down and began to groom him through the door. They both seemed much more at ease in each other's presence.

Arnold will likely need several weeks of treatment in our hospital before he is ready to rejoin his mate in the wild. He will need to be kept inside for the majority of this time in order to keep his wound sterile and prevent infection. We will do our best to get him back out quickly and will perform bandage changes and treatments in view of the doorway when possible so that his mate can check up on him ❤️

Littering is littering, no matter how 'cute' or 'fun' it is 😠

Erik picked up this strand of ELEVEN balloons out of the hayfield this afternoon. They were losing helium and would have been essentially invisible in another few hours, and then stood a good chance of getting mowed, raked and baled in the dense grass to be potentially eaten by a cow, horse or goat this winter. This is often fatal to the animal, causing intestinal blockage or choking. With the long strings wound right into the bale, an animal may not even realize what it’s consuming until it’s too late.

Please, on behalf of not only livestock but wildlife, skip the balloons when you’re decorating for your party this summer! Releasing balloons, whether accidental or intentional, is littering, plain and simple—and it can truly have deadly consequences.

For our readers who want receipts, here a few articles about the effect of balloons on both livestock and wildlife:
