Behind every pet we see, is a veterinarian who dedicated their life to making the world a safer place for animals. 🐾💙

They guide us through it all. From that chaotic, exciting first puppy/kitten visit to the toughest, most selfless final goodbyes. They are ultimate problem solvers. No words? No problem. Veterinarians combine sharp diagnostic skills with incredible intuition to advocate for the voiceless.

To our veterinarians who work late nights, handle the emotional highs and lows of the hospitals, and never stop fighting for our furry family members: Thank you.

There is a distinct shift that happens when a shelter cat finally realizes they’re home. A quiet room fills with purrs, and the cautious steps turn into confident strides.

But we aren’t just celebrating because it’s on the calendar. We’re doing it because compassion is baked into our DNA. We know that a pet isn't just a pet. They are life's greatest companions. And that's why we work hand-in-hand with Canadian shelters year-round to streamline the path from kennel to couch.

If you’ve been looking for a sign to find your missing piece, this is it. 🐾

🐕 We came, we saw, we wagged! 🐕

Community outreach and support is at the heart of what we do, and we were so proud to show up for 's pets and their families for the 2026 Canine Carnival.

Thanks to our national philanthropic program here at , and our amazing teams and volunteers from VCA Canada Jackson Creek Animal Hospital, we were able to provide dog & cat (fully by donation), with 100% of proceeds going to the wonderful Lions Dog Guides foundation! 🦮

As well as FREE bags of premium pet food, helping ensure every local furry family member has access to nutritious meals.

By partnering with local agencies and our food partners like Royal Canin, we are taking active, compassionate steps toward engaging the entire community in Helping People Make Pets’ Lives Better.

Thank you to everyone who came out, donated, and celebrated the beautiful bond we share with our pets. Let's keep working together to keep all pets happy, healthy, and safe! 💙

If you had only 5 minutes to evacuate your home, would you have everything your pet needs to stay safe and healthy? 🐾🎒

Here is a quick, veterinarian-approved checklist of what to pack in a waterproof container or backpack:

🫗 Food & Water: A 7 day - 2 week supply of non-perishable food (and a manual can opener if using wet food) + plenty of fresh bottled water.

⚕️ Medical Essentials: A 2-week supply of any daily medications + a basic pet first-aid kit (gauze, vet wrap, antiseptic wipes, and tweezers).

🪪 Proof of ID & Records: Physical copies of vaccination records, your microchip registry number, and a printed photo of you with your pet (in case you are separated).

🐾 Safety Gear: An extra collar/harness with up-to-date ID tags, a sturdy leash, and a secure carrier for transport.

💩 Sanitation & Comfort: P**p bags (for dogs), a small container of litter/tray (for cats), paper towels, and a familiar blanket or toy to help soothe their anxiety.

✨ Pro-Tip: Set a repeating calendar reminder twice a year (like when the clocks change) to check expiration dates on your pet's food and medicine in the bag!

One of the coolest things about being part of a larger veterinary community is getting to share incredible stories and educational moments from across our hospitals. Today, we’ve got a fascinating look into some x-rays!

These X-rays show a pup’s paw after having a toe surgically removed due to a mast cell tumor.

While tumors are a common reason for this procedure, our teams sometimes have to perform a toe amputation due to severe infections, traumatic injuries, or painful bone disorders. It sounds like an intimidating surgery, but dogs are incredibly resilient. They adapt beautifully, and mobility is rarely impacted long-term.

In fact, this patient recovered like an absolute champ and doesn’t even notice the missing digit! 💕

X-rays like these are crucial for our medical teams to plan surgeries precisely and ensure the best possible outcome. We love seeing how quickly our furry patients bounce back and get right back to being playful pups.

Have you ever met a pet with a successful amputation story? Drop a comment and tell us about your resilient fur babes! 👇

🐾 👀 Are my pet’s eyes supposed to look like that? 👀🐾

As a veterinary team, we see pet parents searching for eye health advice all the time. From mysterious "eye boogers" to sudden changes in how your furry family member navigates the living room, eye health can feel incredibly stressful.

To save you a late-night Google rabbit hole, our medical team has broken down some of the top things you actually need to look out for:

👁️ The "Cloudy" Question: Notice a hazy blue or grey tint in your senior pet’s eyes? While many owners immediately worry about cataracts, it is often a normal, painless aging change called nuclear sclerosis. However, only a veterinarian can tell the difference and ensure their vision stays protected!

👁️ The Nighttime Stumble: Pets are masters at hiding vision loss. Often, the very first sign of a problem isn't physical, it’s behavioural. If your dog or cat is suddenly hesitating on the stairs, bumping into furniture in low light, or refusing to jump on the bed at night, their vision might be changing.

👁️ The Discharge Decoder: Clear or slight white tearing can be normal allergies or dust. But if you notice your pet squinting, rubbing their face, or producing yellow or green discharge, it’s a clear signal from their body that it’s time to see a professional.

Clear, comfortable eyes are vital to your pet's quality of life. If you’ve noticed any changes in your pet's eyes or behaviour, don't guess at home, let our experienced team take a look.

To all our Veterinary Assistants,

🐾 You are the person holding the anxious pet close so they feel safe during an exam.
🐾 You are the one resetting the treatment room in a flash, anticipating exactly what the technician or veterinarian needs before they even ask.
🐾 Your hands are steady, your stamina is unmatched, and your impact reaches every corner of our hospitals.

From the messy, fast-paced moments of an emergency to the soft, heavy silence of a hard goodbye, you hold the floor together.

So, to every Veterinary Assistant across , we see the dirt(?💩), the sweat, the tears, and the absolute heart you pour into this job daily. And we don't just notice your work, we notice how we honestly couldn't do this without you. 💙

Happy Week!

🐾 Protecting the Paws that Can't Speak for Themselves 🐾

Our commitment to care doesn’t stop at our doors. It’s built into our DNA, and it's led by experts who dedicate their lives to those who cannot speak for themselves.

Today, we want to shine a spotlight on our very own Dr. Margaret Doyle; a healer by day and a forensic visionary by night.

When she isn't leading the charge at VCA Canada Riverbend Animal Hospital, Dr. Doyle is serving as a forensic veterinarian, uncovering the truth in the most difficult cases, and this week she is taking the stage at the International Veterinary Forensic Sciences Association (IVFSA) Conference to share critical insights into the intersection of animal welfare and criminal justice during the Court Testimony Workshop.

🗓️ Tuesday, May 12, 2026
⏰ 1:00 - 5:00 PM
📍 Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity

But not only is she speaking at external conferences, Dr. Margaret Doyle also hosts exclusive internal webinars across VCA Canada, and is:

✅ Educating our Associates on the subtle signs of non-accidental injury.
✅ Training our teams to recognize "The Link" between animal cruelty and domestic violence.
✅ Empowering our staff with the tools to be the first line of defense for pets in danger.

We don't just treat animals; we protect them. By educating our teams on the gravity of animal abuse, we are helping to create a safer world for both pets and the people who love them.

Our Standard. Our Promise.
