💔💔💔 Keep your pups home , wash hands , change clothes and shoes if exposed to strange dogs or areas dog frequent . Keep your pups safe . Vaccinate for parvo if you have not done so or get your dog a booster if it’s been 3 years since the last one

Whether or not parvovirus infection happens depends on the interaction of three things: Host vitality (including immune experience/vaccination status), virulence of the virus (including how many viral particles the host is exposed to), and environmental factors.

🚨 Parvovirus Alert in Our Community 🚨

Recently, several puppies in our community have tested positive for Parvovirus. Cases continue to emerge across the region, putting unvaccinated and young dogs at high risk.

Parvovirus is a highly contagious and deadly virus that spreads through contact with infected dogs, contaminated surfaces, and even human shoes or clothing. It attacks the gastrointestinal system, causing severe vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, and often requires intensive veterinary care.

💉 How to Protect Your Dog:
✔️ Ensure your dog is fully vaccinated—puppies need a series of vaccines, and adult dogs require regular boosters.
✔️ Avoid dog parks, daycare, or high-traffic areas if your dog is unvaccinated or overdue for vaccines.
✔️ Practice strict hygiene—wash hands and change clothes if exposed to unknown dogs or environments.
✔️ Contact your vet immediately if your dog shows symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or loss of appetite.

Parvo can become life threatening if left untreated and vaccination is the best defense. Please share this message to help protect our community’s pets. Stay safe! 🐶❤️

*****ADOPTED *****

💞 Rebel has found his forever home
Thank you everyone who applied to offer their home to this incredible dog

We have a beautiful 3 year old yellow male Labrador from a former litter ( Archie x Ruthie ) available for adoption .

This good boy is available through no fault of his own . The owner is working out of province with no one to care for the dog .

He is not crated - does not chew , is submissive with other dogs - not dominant in any way , loves car rides , timbits and people , especially kids . He does not get on furniture , jump on people and has good recall .

He will bark if left alone inside with others outside or people outside that he can hear or see . He wants to be part of the group ! He is strong on a leash if he smells something but otherwise ok to walk. Every day he remains here with me he is learning more . He is not pulling as much as the first day when I walk him . He will come with little effort now and not pull to smell what’s on the ground .

He is intact. He is UTD on his rabies , flea , tick and wormer . He is due for his annual vaccines in October .

No health issues , no allergies and no vices .

There is no adoption fee for this boy if the perfect home can be found . There will be an adjustment period as he is used to his family with kids where he has lived since he was 8 weeks old .

If you would like to add a faithful Labrador friend to your family please send a pm

WE WILL REMAIN CLOSED UNTIL AFTER WEDNESDAY - the danger of heat related illness or death to pets is far too serious for us to continue grooming during this heatwave .
If you are scheduled before Wednesday you will need to contact us to rebook . Thank you for understanding
