Sometimes the best plans are the ones that include your pet.

Whether it's a movie night on the couch, a walk around the neighborhood, or simply enjoying each other's company, those quiet moments often become our favorite memories.

We've all been there... You sit down to answer one email, and somehow 30 minutes later you're rubbing your dog's belly instead.

Be honest...how often are you guilty of a little "pawcrastination?"

Some days all you need is a quiet moment with your favorite feline. Whether they're curled up beside you, making biscuits, or simply keeping you company, cats have a special way of making life a little brighter.

Share a photo of the cat who makes your day better, we'd love to see them!

There's a reason dogs have such an incredible sense of smell and your lunch is usually at the top of their priority list!

While it's funny when they give you those irresistible puppy eyes, remember that many common sandwich ingredients, including onions, garlic, grapes, and xylitol-containing products, can be dangerous for dogs.

Has your dog ever stolen your food? Tell us your funniest story in the comments!

Pumpkin-flavored treats are everywhere this time of year, but some seasonal ingredients aren't safe for pets.

Nutmeg contains myristicin, which can be toxic when ingested in larger amounts and may cause disorientation, increased heart rate, tremors, or even seizures.

If you think your pet has eaten a large amount of nutmeg or another potentially toxic ingredient, contact us immediately at (905) 522-6879.

False! Puppy vaccines are just the beginning. Adult dogs need regular booster vaccinations to help maintain protection against serious diseases. The vaccines your dog needs and how often they need them will depend on their age, lifestyle, and risk factors.

False! Dental disease can begin much earlier than many pet owners realize. In fact, many dogs and cats show signs of periodontal disease by the age of three.

Regular dental exams, at-home dental care, and professional cleanings can help keep your pet's mouth healthy and prevent more serious health problems.

Want to learn more about your pet's dental health? Call us at (905) 522-6879.
