Playtime, scratching opportunities, clean litter boxes, appropriate nutrition, dental care, and routine veterinary visits all contribute to a healthy life. Team cat, team dog, or team both?

A dog's nose can go from wet to dry throughout the day for perfectly normal reasons, including sleeping, weather, activity, and hydration.

Instead of judging health by nose moisture alone, watch your dog's overall behavior and symptoms.

If a dry nose is accompanied by lethargy, appetite changes, vomiting, discharge, cracking, sores, or other concerns, call (780) 352-6036.

Sometimes gradual weight gain is hard to notice when you see your pet every day.

A healthy body condition involves more than the number on the scale. Your veterinarian can evaluate your pet's ribs, waist, body shape, muscle condition, age, and lifestyle to determine an appropriate weight range.

Wondering where your pet falls? Call (780) 352-6036 to schedule a wellness visit.

Spaying or neutering can provide important health and population-control benefits, but the best timing isn't necessarily identical for every pet.

Age, breed, size, health, and individual risk factors can all play a role in deciding when to perform the procedure.

Dog aging isn't quite as simple as multiplying by seven.

Dogs mature rapidly in their first years, and aging rates vary considerably by size and breed. That's one reason veterinary recommendations may change as your dog moves through different life stages.

Want to know what care is appropriate for your dog's current life stage? Call (780) 352-6036.
