By nakedbarra, on June 12th, 2013 Welcome to another instalment of Wellness Wednesdays, where we feature a new  Veterinary Clinic in this beautiful province of BC every week on (you guessed it,) Wednesdays.
Today, we’d like to introduce you all to Pacific Cat Clinic in Victoria, Vancouver Island. They would like to to share Merry.
” Merry was with our adoption program and returned to us with a broken leg. Unable to pay for surgery she was surrendered to us by her owner and became the unofficial “clinic cat”. She has since been living with one of our staff members who kennel rested her and did physiotherapy on her for two months. She comes in . . . → Read More →
By nakedbarra, on June 5th, 2013 At Cottonwood Veterinary Clinic, located at 101B 45793 Luckakuck Way in Chilliwack BC, They have a permanent resident, Lily, who came to our clinic after becoming acutely paralyzed in her hind end at only 8 weeks old. As there is no known treatment to improve her condition quickly she became the newest member of our team here at Cottonwood Clinic. We all love her and are not looking for an adoptive home. We purchased a cart for her and she is quickly learning to maneuver and get around with her cart. The cart will prevent the back legs from losing muscle mass and hopefully give her spinal cord opportunity to regenerate and perhaps re-gain some use. She is continuing to make great gains. . . . → Read More →
By nakedbarra, on May 29th, 2013 Wellness Wednesdays introduces you to Lifetime Pet Care Practice, in Surrey BC. Dr. Yuri Yoon, Dr. Natasa Milojkovic and their staff, Jen, Laura, Jenn, Leisha, Anita would like to tell you about Shylo.
Shylo came to Lifetime Pet Care Practice in 2002 looking for a new home. After a short  while everyone fell in love with him and he was here to stay. He was always a very active cat but as he aged we noticed him slowing down. He started having episodes where is hind legs would give out on him and he seemed very painful. Concerned we sent him to the specialist where he was diagnosed with inter vertebral . . . → Read More →
By nakedbarra, on May 24th, 2013 Every day we have new customers call us, saying their dog is having mobility issues, their cat needs an amputation, or they just need some assistance.
Every day, I have people tell me “He’s 14, I know thats old”. I always ask people “does he still look at you the same? Does his tail wag, and does she purr, even if she can’t move?” When they answer yes to those questions, I tell them, AGE IS NOT A DISEASE. If you feel your pet is ‘all there’ mentally, then age is just a number! There are a ton of products to help humans in their old age, and now there is products to help your pet age gracefully.

By nakedbarra, on May 24th, 2013 We’ve written a lot about pets and their health. How to keep them healthy, how to prevent them from being unhealthy, how to maintain their health once they get older, how to do a wellness check, and how to cope with an animal whose very unhealthy.
How do pets affect our health? Good question.
Basic answer? Very ‘paws’ itivly.
Our lives are stress filled little balls of fire. It’s a constant and consistent up, down, up, down, sideways, loop-de-loop and just when we think things are okay, we’re sent propelling straight back down to restart the whole process again. It’s okay, that’s what keeps us on our toes . . . → Read More →
By nakedbarra, on May 24th, 2013 Hero Dogs, Military edition! Welcome to Trooper Tuesdays! The only reason I cried is because I was so proud of these next two dogs, Stubby and Trackr.
In the U.S dogs are equally revered, especially in the military. A Pit Bull named Stubby once reached the rank of Sergeant for his heroic work during World War I. Sergeant Stubby served in some 17 battles during the war and became the most highly decorated dog in U.S. history. Another dog, a mixed breed named Chips, may be better known though. He served during the Second World War and was awarded both the Silver Star and Purple Heart, after serving in some . . . → Read More →
By nakedbarra, on May 22nd, 2013 Keeping your pet happy and healthy is the number one priority for pet owners. We buy the best toys, take them to the vet for check ups, and exercise with them; everything and anything we can do to help our furry friends. Since prevention is a key stage in your pets well being, our friends at healthypetsnh created this helpful “Snout to Tail Wellness Assessment”. This should be done 3-5 times a week to be the most effective, and isn’t just for those handicapped and special needs animals. If you find an abnormally on your pet, contact your Vet to discuss.

By nakedbarra, on May 22nd, 2013 Wellness Wednesdays introduces you to Downtown Veterinary Clinic Victoria, located on Vancouver Island in BC. 
Dr. Levente Degi, Suzie & Romana would like to share this helpful little trick with you.
Regular annual health examination is very important for the health of your companion because your family veterinarian can pick up a variety of illnesses, prevent potentially catastrophic diseases, and discuss any mobility issues. By finding, diagnosing and treating these problems early, your pet will live a much healthier and longer life.
By nakedbarra, on May 17th, 2013 What you need to know before adopting a Special Needs Dog
A Special Needs dog is any dog that requires help or assistance doing the things that other dogs can do without help. Like humans, special needs in dogs may be a physical or mental disability.
The term special needs can cover a wide range of issues. It may be something simple like an amputation, or something as difficult as mental issues that make your pup afraid of everything, including his own shadow. Caring for a ‘special needs’ animal may be a daunting task if you’re not prepared and knowledgeable about the disability that the particular dog has.
