Bannock’s incredible journey and the transformation we have watched thanks to his first foster family in Thunder Bay to his flight buddy down to Toronto to his wonderful foster for the last 2 weeks and today he begins his new life in his new home. We want to thank everyone so much for all the support and help since we put the call out for Bannock to get him to this point.
Just putting it out there if someone might be coming from Pickle Lake that could pickup about 10-15 crates at Northstar hanger and bring them to Thunder Bay for us

Days 4/5 were busy in the clinic. Lots of surgeries and some wellness exams as well. Luckily managed a quick swim to cool off at night.
The clinic is busy this week! Mostly spay and neuter surgeries of dogs young and old yesterday with a few wellness checks as well. The weather is hot this week and we are hoping for a swim today!
I will be looking for a transport buddy for a dog coming from Thunder Bay to Toronto either air Canada or westjet next week. If anyone is travelling and would be kind enough I would be very grateful. Please PM me

Last week, we discovered that a crucial piece of equipment for the spay/neuter clinic is beyond repair. We are now raising funds to cover this unexpected expense. Any donations would be greatly appreciated.
We still could take 1 more rvt and 1 more vet if any want to volunteer for a great cause. Rvt Aug 3-10 and vet Aug 10-17
Still searching for RVT’s for 2 trips August 3-10 and August 10-17
Also looking for RVT’S and DVM’S for a trip mid September
This is a great experience and an opportunity to help these animals that have no regular veterinary care.
We are still in need of RVT s to travel north August 3-10 and August 10-17
