It is Veterinary Appreciation Day and we thought it was a perfect day to announce that we are thrilled to be adding a new veterinarian to our Washago Vet team!!

————————————

Hello!

My name is Dr. Hannah Domsy, and I'm excited to meet you all as a new associate veterinarian at Washago Veterinary Services!

I've never been a stranger for long. People often tell me I could make friends with a tree! My goal is to make every client and pet feel comfortable, welcomed, and cared for.

I am Fear Free Certified and passionate about making veterinary visits as stress-free and positive as possible.

When I'm not at the clinic, you'll likely find me outdoors hiking, fishing, camping, or ATVing. My favourite adventure buddy is Gooseberry, a rescued street dog from the Caribbean who has completely stolen my heart.

I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

To optimize your pet's overall health, customize activities according to your dog's age and breed. Aim for 30–60 minutes of movement daily, such as brisk walks, fetch, or swimming. Incorporate puzzle toys or obedience training to maintain mental acuity.

Teaching a dog the “look at me” command is a fundamental training step that diverts their focus from distractions and redirects their attention to you.

The remarkably agile, padded split hooves of Aruban goats enable them to scale near-vertical surfaces and climb directly into the branches of trees to forage for leaves and fruit.

Did goats play a role in the discovery of coffee?

A legend suggests that coffee was first discovered when an Ethiopian goat herder observed his goats becoming increasingly energetic and sleepless after consuming berries from a specific tree. Following his discovery, beverages made from these mysterious berries began to be consumed, and knowledge of their energizing properties spread globally.
