Fun fact of the day!

Cats love to scratch! When your cat scratches, they are helping shed the outer layer of their nail! Be sure to provide your cat with a sturdy scratching post, at least three feet high. This will deter them from scratching your carpet and furniture.

Your pet's mouth may seem small, but dental disease can affect your pet's overall health! A healthy mouth is the gateway to a healthy pet! Make sure you're keeping up on your pets oral health!

No one likes to see their pet in pain. Call us to learn more about how we can assist your pet today!

Please remember not all pets can handle certain climates. Leaving your pet outside or in a car for extended periods of time can cause them to get sick! A good benchmark is, if you could not tolerate the temperature, your pet can't either!

Easter is coming up this weekend. Please make sure to keep those pets safe and Hoppy Easter!

Here are some fur baby cuddles to fill your day!

As we near the end of 2020, we thank you for all of your support this year and can't wait to see what the new year has in store!

Fact of the day! Cats can smell with their mouths. Cats have a small scent gland in the roof of the mouth called the vomeronasal organ!

Happy Holidays! Warmest thoughts and best wishes to you and your loved ones!

Just like people, cats and dogs can have food allergies, too. And like humans, those allergic responses can range from itchy and irritating to severe and dangerous! It's important to consult with a professional to ensure that your pet is on a diet that works best for their health!

Fact of the day!

How to pick what furry friend is best for you and your family? Your pet-owning experience will be most enjoyable if you consider carefully what type of pet best suits your family, home, and lifestyle. Invest the time and effort to make an informed decision and ensure the years with your future pet are happy ones!

Our favorite form of snuggles!

Some pets become irritable when they have dental problems! It's always better to prevent dental problems from occurring in the future through the utilization of annual dental exams! If you notice any changes in your pet’s behavior, this may mean that something is causing discomfort and it may be time to schedule your pet's next visit with us!

Trimming your dogs nails play a vital role in maintaining your dogs health! Neglected nails not only drive you up the wall with their continuous clicking across the floor, but can also cause health problems in your dog.

You can rely on our team to help you keep your pet healthy and treat them when they are sick or injured!

Do you have a reclining chair? Young puppies and kittens love to run under and hide in reclining chairs. Kittens are especially likely to climb up inside the chair and curl up for a nap, so be sure to check where your pet is before reclining!

Proper nutrition is key to a healthy pet! Feeding your pet the right amount, and type, of food will help them maintain a healthy weight! Call us today if you have any questions about your pet's diet!

Beware of the scraps that fall on the ground when you're eating! Chocolate, coffee grounds, tea, salt, avocados, grapes, onions, garlic, macadamia nuts and anything containing xylitol is dangerous for your pet.

We hope you're having the ultiMUTT day!

The real best friend!

What should I do if my cat has a seizure? Remain calm and, if possible, move your cat to a safe place. Remember that when the seizure stops, your cat will be disoriented and may not recognize you. If the seizure doesnt stop, or your cat is having cluster seizures, visit us immediately.

Pets are receptive to love and kind, soothing tones of speaking! Give your fury friend a little extra love today.

If your cat has not left anything in the litter box for one or two days, it may need help getting things moving again. Give us a call so we can get to the bottom of it and help your kitty feel better!

Is your pet microchipped? Microchipping your pet is important for their safety! Be sure to never lose them and get them chipped today.

Have a relaxing weekend with your pet and yourself! You all deserve it!

Cats spend about 70% of their lives sleeping, which is why they make great cuddle partners!

Fun fact: A Greyhound dog can beat a Cheetah in a long distance race. Crazy, right!

Dogs have many reasons for barking, including when they want something like going outside, or even separation anxiety barking.

Did you know that dogs can get jealous when their humans display affection towards someone or something? Always give your dog some extra love when you spend time with them!

We can't wait to meet your pets and give them the best care possible during their visit here. Call us today!

Eighty percent of pet owners buy their furry friend a present for holidays and birthdays! Do you buy your pet a gift on their birthday?

Always consider your pets when planning fire routes and safety in our homes. SHARE this to spread the word!

Did you know these signs of trust?

Still cute though!

Do you do this?

Do you think your dog knows their real name?

Now that's a perfect night!

A beautiful sight!

Anybody relating to this? Lol

Halton Hills Veterinary Clinic COVID-19 update HHVC staff hope all our clients and patients are staying safe during this time. We have implemented some changes at the clinic to keep our clients, patients, and staff safe. We remain open and continue to practice. As per the governments directive, we will be enforcing social distancing.... Please review the changes that have been implemented to do our part to prevent the spread of COVID 19 virus and continue to care for our patients. 1. Essential appointments are available for patients that require immediate and urgent care. We are admitting patients from the car/parking lot to reduce the amount of traffic in and out of the clinic. Please call the clinic upon arrival 905-873-1855. 2. Call ahead for food and medication. Since there may be longer wait times from our supplier to fill these items, expect a possible 5-7 day wait time on some items. We are doing our best to get food and medication to you as soon as possible. 3. We are asking that clients do not order more than a 2 month supply of food or medication to help reduce the strain on our suppliers which potentially could lead to longer wait times and reduced supply. 4. When possible we are asking clients to pay over the phone for food and medication. When arriving at the clinic to pick up these items please call from the parking lot and the items will be brought outside. 5. We have implemented a screening process when booking appointments and ask owners to refrain from coming to the clinic if they have been travelling in the last 2 weeks, been in contact with anyone who has travelled, have a cough and/or fever, or been in contact with anyone who has a cough and/or fever. Please respect the screening process. **if a patient requires medical attention and you have travelled or are experiencing these symptoms, please arrange for a family member or friend to facilitate your pet(s) receiving veterinary care** 6. We are utilizing telemedicine (email, phone calls) when applicable for certain cases. Please contact the clinic for us to determine if this is the appropriate way for our veterinarians to evaluate your pets health concern. 7. We have adjusted our disinfectant and biosecurity protocols to ensure areas of the hospital are cleaned frequently to reduce possible contamination and transmission of the virus. Please remember that these changes have been made to keep our clients and staff safe and healthy. We cannot help our patients if we do not provide a safe work place. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate contacting the clinic - we are here for you and your furry family members! Thank you from all our staff and appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this difficult time in the world.
