Not every pet has the same disease exposure. A dog who regularly visits boarding facilities, dog parks, or hiking trails may have different vaccination needs than a pet with a very different routine.

That's why your pet's vaccination plan should consider their age, health, environment, travel, and everyday activities.

Let's talk about your pet's individual needs at their next visit. Call (519) 672-1210.

You know your pet’s normal better than anyone, so pay attention when something seems different. Call (519) 672-1210 with any concerns.

Celebrating RVT Month: Meet Veronica!

This RVT Month, we’re proud to celebrate Veronica, one of our amazing Registered Veterinary Technicians at Western Animal Clinic!

Veronica became an RVT because she grew up surrounded by pets and always knew she wanted to work with animals. With 14 years of experience, she has developed a passion for surgery and nursing care. One of the most rewarding parts of her job is seeing a patient turn a corner, especially when they finally eat after days of not eating. Those little victories make all the difference!

Her favourite patients? Dogs, of course, especially the big, drooly ones!

Veronica also has a special talent for remembering patients and their owners with little to no information. If you’ve ever been amazed that she remembers your pet, now you know why!

And if she weren’t working in veterinary medicine, you’d probably find her running a doggy daycare, surrounded by even more four-legged friends.

Thank you, Veronica, for 14 years of dedication, compassion, and care for our patients and their families.

We’re so lucky to have you on the Western Animal Clinic team!

Join us in celebrating Veronica and all the incredible RVTs who make a difference in animal care every day.

You know your pet's normal behavior better than anyone. A sudden change in appetite, energy, breathing, mobility, bathroom habits, or personality deserves attention, especially when it persists or is accompanied by other symptoms.

You don't have to wait until your pet seems severely ill to ask for help.

If something doesn't seem right, call (519) 672-1210.

Celebrating RVT Month: Meet Elizabeth, RVT!

This October, we’re celebrating Registered Veterinary Technicians and the compassion, dedication, and skills they bring to veterinary medicine every day.

Today, we’re proud to highlight Elizabeth, who has been an RVT for 10 years!

Elizabeth knew from a very young age that she wanted a career involving animals. While her love for animals started it all, what makes her career so rewarding is being able to help an animal and see the relief and comfort wash over them when things work out. As she puts it, that feeling is even better than a thank you.

She also loves the fast-paced nature of veterinary medicine, where no two days are the same and there’s always something new happening.

When asked about her favourite animal to work with, Elizabeth says her heart fills with joy whenever she sees old, grey Labs who are beloved family dogs. Her favourite skill? Wrangling those spicy kitties!

One of her favourite veterinary memories is when clients brought in two abandoned puppies they had found while out on a walk. They decided to give the puppies a forever home, and now the team gets the joy of watching them grow up.

And if Elizabeth weren’t an RVT? She’d be running a hobby farm and selling the things she makes and grows!

We’re so grateful to have Elizabeth as part of the Western Animal Clinic team.

Thank you, Elizabeth, for the care, compassion, and dedication you bring to your patients and their families every day.

Sometimes gradual weight gain is hard to notice when you see your pet every day.

A healthy body condition involves more than the number on the scale. Your veterinarian can evaluate your pet's ribs, waist, body shape, muscle condition, age, and lifestyle to determine an appropriate weight range.

Wondering where your pet falls? Call (519) 672-1210 to schedule a wellness visit.

Dogs have a wonderful way of reminding us to enjoy the little things. Play, exercise, social interaction, and quality time with their favorite people aren’t just fun either. They’re important parts of a dog’s physical and emotional wellbeing. Questions about keeping your dog happy and healthy? Call (519) 672-1210.

Celebrating RVT Month: Meet Kat!

This October, we’re celebrating Registered Veterinary Technicians and the compassion, dedication, and hard work they bring to veterinary medicine every day.

Meet Kat, the newest addition to our team! Although she’s been an RVT for less than a year, she already knows how rewarding it is to make a difference in the lives of pets and their families.

Kat’s journey into veterinary medicine was inspired by the loss of her childhood Golden Retriever, Riley, to cancer. That heartbreaking experience motivated her to learn how to help other pets and make a difference in their lives.

Her favorite part of being an RVT is seeing patients who come in with serious medical problems bounce back after receiving care. Knowing that she and her team played a part in helping them recover is what makes it all worthwhile.

Kat loves working with both dogs and cats, and one of her favorite hands-on skills is applying paw bandages and cleaning wounds. When she’s not caring for patients, she has another creative passion: if she weren’t an RVT, she’d love to be a film editor, specifically working on documentaries!

Her advice for anyone considering a career as an RVT is a great reminder of what this profession is all about:
"It's a lot of hard work and sometimes tears, but it's worth it every time when you see pets bounce back to their loving and happy selves again!"

We’re so happy to have Kat as part of our team and are excited to watch her grow in her career. Thank you, Kat, for bringing your compassion and dedication to the patients in your care at Western Animal Clinic!

Happy RVT month!
