A couple of our star veterinarians are also star hockey players. Dr. Nyomi and Dr. Emilie faced off against each other, in the Ice Melter III Hockey Tournament this weekend in Lethbridge. Judging from their smiles, it looks like they had a great time!

🎉 To celebrate the annual World Veterinary Day, this year the World Veterinary Association (WVA) Council has selected the theme “Veterinarians: Guardians of Food and Health” to highlight the systemic role of veterinary services in safeguarding food safety, food security, public health, and animal health worldwide.

The 2026 theme recognises that global food systems are increasingly interconnected and exposed to emerging disease threats, climate-related pressures, antimicrobial resistance, and economic volatility. In this context, veterinarians act not only as animal health professionals, but as essential actors in health security, sustainable food systems, and economic resilience/sustainability.

✨ World Veterinary Day 2026 aims to elevate public understanding and policy recognition of veterinary services as a cornerstone of sustainable and secure food systems.

🛡 Veterinarians don’t just treat pets — they protect nations.

This week we are celebrating Veterinary Receptionist Week. At LVS, that means that we are celebrating Truus! She is the glue that holds our clinic together. Quietly keeping things moving, orders being put together, samples being shipped, results being released, client requests being dealt with, phones being answered and so much more background work that keeps this place functioning and allows all the rest of us to do our jobs without a second thought. It is common to hear, "Ask Truus, she'll know..." and she always does. Thank you for all that you do each day for all of us, Truus.💐

For anyone who will be dropping by the office to pick up orders or drop off samples, please come through the doors in the back. We are having some outdoor renovations in the front and it is blocked off.

Scrolling through Social Media and my brain says: “Hey! We know her! 😉”

If you are attending WCDS, don’t forget to say “Hi!” to Dr. Betty-Jo and definitely plan to attend her seminar! The LVS Calf-Start Program is pretty awesome and the results speak for themselves! Find out how you and your calves could benefit!

October is RVT Month and we have the pleasure of working with some of the best in the business! It takes very special humans to be able to comfort and care for sick pets in the small animal clinic one day and then be able to do Fresh Checks and Calf Start the next. Our RVTs shine in all aspects of their roles. Please join us in celebrating these amazing RVTs!
