Puppies start teething anywhere between 3-4 months old and can last until the age of 6 to 7 months. You’ll notice an increase in biting and nipping as your puppy loses more baby teeth and adult teeth start to grow in. Most pups decrease their mouthing and biting by the time they are 8 to 10 months old, depending on the breed. To ensure this doesn’t turn into a lifelong bad habit, follow these helpful tips to stop puppy biting. Do you have questions about how to care for your pup? Give us a call at 613-678-3678 and we can provide you with more personalized care. 🐶

We all want our homes to smell nice and clean; however, as pet owners, we have to be extra careful that whatever we are using isn’t harmful to our fur babies. Incense is dangerous to cats as their sense of smell is 14 times stronger than that of humans and the smell can be too intense for them to handle. It also produces smoke, which can be bad for their respiratory system and increase the risk of your cat developing asthma. Opt for cat-friendly methods of keeping your house smelling fresh and clean by dusting frequently, using baking soda to absorb odors, having fragrant plants such as rosemary or sage, or simmering a pot of water with cinnamon sticks, apples, or vanilla. Stay current with your cats' healthcare needs and schedule their appointment by calling 613-678-3678.

FOUND!!! Thanks everyone for sharing!
Missing cat -
Teenie is a 13 year old female spayed cat missing on the end of Bertha Street in Vankleek Hill. She's missing since Monday morning when she escaped through a door that was accidentally left open. She has extra toes in all four paws. She has a thyroid condition that needs medication twice daily and is greatly missed by her family. She has never been outside and is scared and hiding. Was last sighted this morning by a neighbor. Please let us know if you've seen her.

One of the key reasons for the increased longevity of altered cats is their reduced risk of certain types of cancer. Intact female cats have a greater chance of developing pyometra (a potentially fatal uterine infection) and uterine, mammary gland, and other cancers of the reproductive system. Neutering male pets eliminates their risk of testicular cancer and eliminates the possibility of developing benign prostatic hyperplasia, which can affect their ability to defecate. Questions? Contact us today at 613-678-3678.

Similar to humans, dogs need regular exercise to stay in good and healthy condition. Canines are active animals – especially as many breeds were bred for high activity levels. A lack of exercise can lead to decreased lean muscle strength and weaker bones. Keep your pup healthy by incorporating regular exercise into their lifestyle and don't forget to schedule regular check-ups with us! Contact us at 613-678-3678.

Kittens require a large amount of energy – almost two to three times that of an adult cat! They also need about 30% of that energy to come from protein. Make sure that the food you are feeding them is specifically formulated for kittens to ensure that they are receiving all the important nutrients your fur baby needs to grow strong and healthy! Your kitten will need to eat kitten-specific food until it reaches maturity at about one year of age. Not sure what is best for your cat? Contact us at 613-678-3678 to set up a health plan purr-fectly tailored to their needs!

Like us, it is best to brush your dog's teeth at least twice every day. For many dogs, once brushing becomes a part of their daily routine, they will begin to expect and enjoy it. Brushing three times a week is the minimum recommendation to help remove plaque and prevent tartar accumulation.

Yes, dogs can eat strawberries as long as they are given in moderation. Strawberries have many benefits for dogs, such as vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber. However, eating too many can cause digestive issues in dogs so it is important to monitor just how much you're feeding them. Give us a call at 613-678-3678.
