👻 Monster of the Week: small villains, big pet problems.

They don’t knock. They don’t need an invitation. And they definitely don’t leave when Halloween ends. Meet the lineup our veterinary team wants you to watch for:

🧛 Fleas: The Tiny Vampires
Their bites can cause intense itching and allergic skin reactions. These unwanted guests can also settle into your home, making consistent, pet-appropriate prevention important.

🕷️ Ticks: The Hitchhikers
They attach to pets and can transmit disease. Check your pet after outdoor adventures and ask us which tick protection fits their lifestyle.

🪱 Intestinal Worms: The Hidden Houseguests
Some pets have no obvious symptoms—and you won’t always see worms in their stool. Stool testing helps us find infections that might otherwise go unnoticed.

🦷 Dental Disease: The Creature Beneath the Gumline
Bad breath isn’t always just “dog breath.” Inflamed gums, painful teeth and trouble chewing deserve a closer look. Home dental care and veterinary dental exams work together to protect that smile.

👂 Ear Infections: The Head-Shaking Haunting
Scratching, redness, odour or discharge can signal a problem. Different causes need different treatments, so skip the mystery drops and let us investigate.

📞 Noticed something suspicious? Call our team to schedule a visit or review your pet’s preventive care. These villains don’t deserve a sequel. 🎬🐾

🎬 THE UNTRIMMED CLAW 🐾
Coming soon to a hardwood floor near you.

Click. Click. Click.
Something is coming down the hallway.
And it desperately needs a nail trim. 😳

The villain? Overgrown nails.
The soundtrack? Impossible to ignore.
The victim? Your legs when someone gets excited to see you.

Long nails can make walking uncomfortable and may snag, split or curl into paw pads. A little routine care can help keep this thriller from becoming a painful sequel.

📞 Call us to schedule a nail trim—let’s give those claws a less dramatic ending! 😂

👻 A haunted house, but it’s a veterinary practice…

Behind every door:
🍫 A dog who ate the entire bag of chocolate. Including the evidence.
🐈 A suspiciously untouched litter box.
🦮 Retractable leashes stretched across the waiting room like tripwires.
🫣 “He doesn’t bite…” whispered from the shadows.
💊 “Did I give Cooper his medication today?”
💻 And somewhere down the hall… “Well, Google said…”

And that’s just the first hallway. 👻😂

All jokes aside, you never have to be afraid to tell our team what happened—or what you’ve read online. Honest details help us care for your pet. 🧡

Some family members bring a side dish. Others sit under the table and hope someone drops one. 🍂🐾

This Thanksgiving, we’re grateful for the pets who make our homes a little messier, our couches a little fuller and our lives a whole lot sweeter.

To our clients: thank you for trusting us with such an important member of your family. Getting to know and care for them means so much to our team. 🧡

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us! 🇨🇦

One siren. Twelve backup singers. Not a single one knows the song. 🚨🐕

Happy Howl-O-Ween from our team to your very loud, very talented dogs. We look forward to their next performance in our waiting room. 😂🧡

🍬 “I checked the candy. It wasn’t toxic!”
But did your pet eat the packaging, too? 👀

When pets help themselves to Halloween treats, unwrapping is rarely their strong suit. Even if the candy isn’t toxic, swallowed wrappers can cause choking or an intestinal blockage. That’s one trick nobody wants. 🐾

Our team’s advice? Keep candy AND the crinkly evidence out of reach, including in a secure trash bin.

📞 Missing wrappers and a suspiciously innocent face? Call us or an emergency veterinary clinic promptly if you suspect your pet swallowed one. Don’t wait for symptoms—and seek immediate emergency care for trouble breathing.

POV: You’re the treat jar at our veterinary clinic. 👀🐾

The stares. The sniffs. The tiny paws asking for “just one more.” Our patients know exactly where we keep the good stuff—and they’re not shy about it! 😂

We love making veterinary visits a little sweeter, one approved treat at a time. ❤️

🧡🐾 Today, We Paws to Remember.

On September 30, we recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day.

While our world is usually filled with paws, wagging tails, and four-legged friends, today we paws for something important: to listen, learn, remember, and reflect. We honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors of residential schools, and the families and communities whose lives continue to be impacted.

As we walk forward together, may we lead with compassion, listen with open hearts, and leave paw prints of kindness and respect wherever we go. 🐾🧡

Every Child Matters.

🐾 Pets & Personal Space: A Concept They’ve Chosen to Ignore

Remember when you had boundaries?
Privacy?
The ability to sit down without becoming furniture?
Yeah. Neither does your pet. 😂

🐶 Your 80 lb dog: “Your lap? You mean our lap.”

🚽 You go to the bathroom: Dog: “Seems dangerous. I’ll supervise.”

😴 You try to sleep: Dog: “This pillow looks uncomfortable. I’ll just lie directly on your face.”

💻 You open your laptop: Cat: “Perfect. A warm rectangle specifically designed for my butt.”

🌙 You wake up at 3 a.m.: Cat: 👁️👁️ Two inches from your face. Breathing.

The good news? Pets often want to be close because they feel safe, comfortable, and bonded to us. ❤️

The bad news? You will never go to the bathroom alone again.

Personal space: 0/10
Having a tiny furry stalker who loves you: 10/10 🐾😂

🍂💘 Your Pet’s Fall Relationship Status

Cuffing season is here…and apparently our pets have been busy. 👀

🐶 Dog: In a committed relationship with a tennis ball. It’s serious. They’ve been together for years. He still refuses to share.

🐱 Cat: It’s complicated. Needs space. Then affection. Then space again. WAIT, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!

🐶 Golden Retriever: In an open relationship. Currently in love with you, your neighbour, the delivery driver, a leaf, and someone they met for 11 seconds at the park.

🐱 Orange Cat: Single. Not emotionally available. Sends mixed meow-sages.

🐶 Puppy: “I’m focusing on myself right now.” Immediately eats a sock.

🐱 Indoor Cat: Long-distance relationship. With a bird outside the window who has no idea they’re dating.

🐶 Senior Dog: Happily settled down. Seeking quiet evenings, dinner at 4:57 p.m. SHARP, and someone who understands that bedtime starts immediately after dinner.

🐱 Senior Cat: Married. To the heated blanket. Please respect their privacy. 🍁

Whatever their relationship status, one thing is certain: you’re still paying all the bills. 😂🐾
