Since this past winter, rabies has been reintroduced into Ontario and has become a serious concern for both human and companion animal health. Be on the watch for suspicious animals or any bites on your off leash dogs or outdoor cats.

A large rabies outbreak impacting Hamilton, Ont. appears to be moving east, with the Halton Region Health Department confirming a bat tested positive for rabies in Oakville, Ont. on June 17.

Happy Valentines Day and Family Day long weekend! We hope that you have a wonderful and restful weekend with your family, loved ones and pets! We will be closed on Monday, February 15th.

With the freezing weather, taking short and frequent walks is a much safer alternative to keep your dogs from developing frostbite, especially on their feet. It is also a good idea to keep your outdoor cats inside this weekend.

Be sure to keep your pets away from any chocolates you recieve, as chocolate (especially dark chocolate) is toxic to both dogs and cats... unless it is a box of chocolate lab puppies!
