*notice for all appointments coming before the water advisory is lifted*
Hello, Friends!! So just to touch base about the boil water advisory.
I got in contact with the vet in West Lorne this morning and they said in terms of dogs, bottled water for drinking only but bathing with our municipal supply is safe. Although I wholeheartedly trust their word! I’m thinking in the back of my head, I have to thoroughly wash around your dogs face & mouths. it’s never a guarantee even with a dog just being a dog that water won’t be ingested.
So! With that said, a vet has cleared it with me that bathing is fine.. appointments will stay in the schedule as planned on my end but I want everyone to know, there will be no hard feelings or penalties for keeping your pets at home if you choose to do so. I understand the concern, we don’t know what exactly has contaminated the water.
