šŸ† Everett has a very important nail-trim PSA! 🐾

We spotted these cheetah nails at the zoo, and Everett says:

ā€œIf your pet’s nails look like this… they’re probably due for a nail trim!ā€ šŸ˜‚šŸ’…

While cheetahs may have a little more of an excuse, our pets’ nails shouldn’t be getting this long!

āœ‚ļø How often should nails be trimmed?
Most dogs and cats need a nail trim approximately every 4–6 weeks, although some pets may need them more frequently depending on their activity level, lifestyle, and how quickly their nails grow.

🐾 Signs your pet’s nails may be too long:
• You can hear their nails clicking on hard floors
• Nails are touching or close to touching the ground when standing
• Nails are beginning to curl
• Dewclaws are getting particularly long
• Your pet’s paws or nails look uncomfortable
• You notice changes in the way they walk or stand

āš ļø Why does nail length matter?
Overgrown nails can:
• Change the way your pet walks and puts weight on their feet
• Put extra stress on the toes, joints, and legs
• Get caught on carpets, furniture, or other surfaces and tear
• Curl into the paw pad, causing pain and potentially infection
• Make future nail trims more difficult as the quick grows longer

And remember — you don't have to wait until the nails are extremely long! Regular, small trims are often much easier and more comfortable for your pet.

🐶🐱 If your furry friend is overdue for a trim, Vet Tech at Your Door can bring the nail-trim service right to your home!

šŸ“ Serving Ottawa and surrounding areas
šŸ’… Nail trims are $15 + house call fee

And according to Everett, maybe check those nails today. šŸ˜‰šŸ†

As many of you may have heard, there was a recent lawsuit involving a dog walker who was severely injured while simply trying to put booties on a client’s dog. Her case was ultimately thrown out because she was considered the ā€œlegal ownerā€ of the dog at the time of the incident.

I feel obligated to speak on this, because this kind of ruling sets a very concerning precedent for those of us who work with animals every day.

Pet professionals—whether vet techs, groomers, walkers, or trainers—rely heavily on owners to be honest and transparent about their pet’s temperament, history, and training. Owners know their animals best. When that information isn’t shared, it puts us in situations that can quickly become dangerous.

Unfortunately, this isn’t just something that happens ā€œelsewhere.ā€ I was recently bitten on the job by a dog who was visiting a regular client. There was no warning given. The dog was allowed to greet me at the door and immediately bit me, completely unprovoked. After the fact, the response was: ā€œoh, he does that sometimes.ā€

That situation was 100% preventable.

Simple precautions—putting the dog away, using a muzzle, or even just giving a heads-up—could have avoided that injury entirely. Instead, it became a risk that I unknowingly walked into.

One serious bite can be career-ending in this field. It’s not just ā€œpart of the jobā€ā€”it’s a safety issue that deserves to be taken seriously.

This is a shared responsibility.

As pet professionals, we take every precaution we can. But we need owners to meet us halfway by being honest, proactive, and responsible when it comes to their pets’ behavior.

Our goal is always to provide safe, compassionate care—for your pets and for ourselves. Let’s work together to make that possible.

We had the pleasure of doing Rollo’s very first nail trim the other day 🐾

He was an absolute gem—so calm, sweet, and brave for his first time šŸ’›

And Merlin? The BEST big brother
He made sure Rollo knew the ropes and showed him there was nothing to worry about

Moments like this are why I love what I do—helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and confident right at home šŸ”
