Here is sweet Oliver, a 7 year old pomeranian chihuahua mix, being held in a veterinary assistant’s arms with some warm towels. ❤️ In February Oliver was in for a cystotomy. When Oliver started having blood in his urine, he came to the clinic for diagnostics. His X-rays showed bladder stones - solid mineral deposits formed when urinary crystals combine together. Surgery was performed to remove them and Oliver is recovering well. He will stay on a specific diet and lots of hydration to prevent reoccurrence.

This condition can affect both females and males, but males are at higher risk of urethral obstruction due to anatomy.

Kulfi, a handsome lynx point siamese, was in for a reexamination to see how he is doing after his antibiotic course finished. He is extremely friendly and is happy to rub against your leg and get a chin scratch. We are happy to see he is recovering well. Unfortunately for him, he still has a bit longer in the cone - but it’ll be able to come off soon! 🐱💞🐾

Dental month has been extended to March! 🦷

Did you know that a lot of dental issues in pets happen below the gum line, where we can’t see? That’s why regular dental cleanings are important to help prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and other health problems.

For the month of March, we’re offering 15% off basic dental cleanings for your companion—excluding extractions.

🔹 How to book: your pet must have had an exam with your Veterinarian in the last 3 months, and the cleaning must be recommended. Preoperative bloodwork may also be required.

To schedule your appointment or ask any questions, please contact our reception team at 604-221-7771. 📞
