Say hi to Goober!

At 14 months old, Goober came to Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital in rough shape, diagnosed with steroid-responsive meningitis.

He's been under the care of Dr. Gordon and our team since the fall, and today he's gaining weight, full of energy, and everyone is optimistic about a full recovery.

Goober's family is happy to report that he's also training with the Burnaby Urban Search and Rescue team!

We receive a lot of kind words and stories from the families who walk through our doors, and every one of them means something to us.

Thank you, Stacey and Norm, for trusting us with Goober 💙

Every pet owner should have a ready-to-go emergency kit stored in an accessible, waterproof container.

In addition to this kit, it’s also important to ensure your pet’s microchip registration and ID tags are up to date, as this is one of the most effective ways to be reunited if you are separated. Consider including a list of local shelters, animal control, and veterinary clinics in your kit so you know exactly where to turn if your pet goes missing.

Make it a habit to check your kit every few months to replace expired items and adjust for seasonal needs.

Save this post as your handy pet emergency kit checklist.

When an emergency happens, a well-thought-out plan ensures everyone in your household knows what to do when time is limited.

Save this post for when you have time to create a pet-inclusive emergency plan.

Practicing your plan regularly—just like a fire drill—can help both you and your pet feel more prepared.

Meet Dr. Elliot, Board-certified Oncologist here at Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital.

Dr. Elliot was born and raised in Vancouver, BC., although she has lived for periods of time in various parts of the country, as well as in the UK. After becoming board-certified in oncology in 2013, she wanted to return to the West Coast, and set up a successful oncology practice in Victoria, BC, but after six years there realised that she needed change from the large corporate structure within which she was working.

She then locumed at BBVSH among other places, including a wonderful experience providing temporary coverage at the veterinary school at the University of Melbourne in Australia.

Upon her return to Canada she was thrilled to re-join the team at BBVSH, where she loves working in an independently-owned hospital that has such a strong focus on providing patients and clients with the best possible care, in a cooperative and supportive working environment.

"To pet owners, my commitment is to provide you with all of the information that you need to make an informed decision regarding your pet’s care; to support you in making the best decision possible in your circumstances, without judgment; and to be there to continue to provide support throughout the journey."

The CSR is often the first and last person a client speaks with — and in a specialty hospital, that matters enormously.

They are the thread connecting owners, patients, and doctors throughout each pet's care journey.

🐾 Why Pet Preparedness Is So Important 🐾

Across Canada, natural disasters such as wildfires, floods, and extreme weather events continue to impact communities. In British Columbia especially, wildfire seasons and flooding have forced thousands to evacuate with little notice.

Pets depend entirely on us during emergencies. Without a plan, families may be forced into difficult decisions—sometimes even leaving pets behind. If it’s not safe for you, it’s not safe for your pet—never leave them behind, even temporarily.

Preparedness isn’t just about convenience, it’s about safety, reunification, and reducing stress for both you and your pet.

At Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital (BBVSH Surrey), we see firsthand how critical preparation can be. As a 24/7 emergency and critical care hospital, we’re here when the unexpected happens—but having a plan in place can make all the difference before you ever need us.

Spotted: Dr. Gamracy reviewing an echocardiogram with a fur dad here at Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital.

Echocardiograms, as well as other necessary diagnostic imaging, are all performed, interpreted and explained to pet families on-site - because understanding what's happening to your pet in real-time matters as much as the diagnosis itself.
