✨ Dr. Mellissa – Our most talented surgeon, whose expertise in both dental and surgical care is matched only by her deep empathy for clients and their beloved pets. Her dedication to excellent veterinary medicine is an inspiration to us all!

We are heartbroken to share the unexpected passing of a very special member of our community, Ozzie 💔🐾
Ozzie wasn’t just a beloved companion—he was a hero. Through his incredible generosity and calm spirit, he donated blood 11 times, helping to save the lives of 33 other dogs. That’s 33 families who got more time, more memories, and more love because of him.
To his devoted owner, we know Ozzie was your whole world. The bond you shared was something truly beautiful, and the care you gave him—and the lives you helped save together—will never be forgotten.
Ozzie’s legacy is one of kindness, compassion, and quiet bravery. He made a difference in ways most never will.
Run free, sweet boy. What a gift it was to know him! You will be deeply missed, and forever remembered 🌈🐶

Is your dog protected against Leptospirosis ? 🐾

Leptospirosis (“lepto”) is a serious bacterial disease that can cause life-threatening kidney and liver failure in dogs—and it’s now considered a core vaccine in Ontario.

⚠️ Why is it considered a core vaccine?
• Rising cases: Lepto is no longer rare—cases are increasing across southern Ontario year-round.
• Urban wildlife: Raccoons, skunks, and rats carry the bacteria, spreading it through urine that contaminates soil and puddles.
• Zoonotic risk: Dogs can pass lepto to humans, making prevention important for the whole family.
• Severe impact: Infection can lead to irreversible organ damage or even death if not treated early.
• Better protection: Modern vaccines protect against multiple strains and are safe and effective.

💉 What this means for your dog:
Lepto is now considered a core vaccine because the risk is high—whether you live in the city or the countryside.

Protect your pet. Protect your family. Talk to your vet about keeping your dog up to date on their lepto vaccine.
