📣 “Anything Over Rice” Cook‑Off: We Took a Pause This Year (2025) 📣
Although we aren't hosting the cook‑off this year as Dr. Paul focuses on family priorities, our passion for supporting Animal Aid Vermilion Area and their animals in need hasn’t changed. Together we can still make a difference! Please consider making a direct donation to help support their vital work for animals in our community:

👻🎃 Halloween Safety Tips for Pets! 🐾🦇
Spooky season is here — but let’s keep the scares fun, not frightening! Here are a few ways to help your furry friends stay safe this Halloween:

🕯️ Keep treats out of reach – Chocolate and xylitol (found in sugar-free candy) are toxic to pets.
🎭 Costume comfort – Only dress pets up if they’re happy and comfortable. Make sure costumes don’t restrict movement, vision, or breathing.
🚪 Prevent escape artists – With trick-or-treaters coming and going, pets can slip out the door. Keep them in a secure, quiet room if possible.
💬 ID tags & microchips – Make sure your pet’s info is up to date, just in case!

👻 From all of us at Whittington Veterinary Clinic, have a safe and happy Halloween filled with treats (for humans and pets alike)! 🎃🐶🐱
