These wonderful ladies are amazing with my dogs! They never do more than is necessary, never run unnecessary tests, and always make me feel like they really care about my fur kids. All of the staff are knowledgeable and they have great hours. Definitely check them out if you have a dog. My dog loves the vets here. The best canine care in Calgary! My dog loves going to Canine Companions, and that is saying alot, he is a rescue and was in bad shape when I got him and spent a lot of time there when he wasn't well. Now he is the picture of health! Love love love the owner and the vet. Very compassionate and they love my puppy as well!

Summer is Parasite season
As soon as the weather heats up, it is time to think about parasite control! Your lifestyle, and travel plans (outside of Alberta or Canada), and the health of your pet will help determine the best preventative care.
Cold Weather
The best way to monitor dogs when it’s cold is to keep a close eye on their behavior. If you notice your dog shivering, acting anxious, whining, slowing down, searching out warm locations or holding up one or more paws, it’s time to head inside.
Sunburn
Common areas for sunburn to occur on dogs is on the bridge of the nose and the underbelly but dogs with thinner or white/light coloured coats can burn all over. There are pet-friendly sunscreens out there (safe for them if they lick it off). Kid/baby sunscreen should be avoided as there is often zinc oxide in the ingredients and this is toxic to pets
Toxic foods for dogs
Avocado, Alcohol, Onions and Garlic, Caffeine Chocolate, Citrus, Grapes and Raisins, Milk and Dairy, Macadamia Nuts, Fat Trimmings and Bones, Yeast Dough, White Bread, Xylitol.
Heat Stroke
Dogs cool themselves by panting – if your pet is excessively panting – it is time for a cool off! Remember, the shorter the nose (shih-tzu, pug, bulldog) the more susceptible to heat stroke. Of course, it goes without saying (but we will) NEVER leave your dog in a hot car or outside without shade and water.
Heat stroke is an emergency – if you think your pet is in the midst of heat stroke – call your Veterinarian!
Marijuana Toxicity in Pets
With the legalization of marijuana pets are at increased risk of finding and ingesting it in harmful amounts. As you would with anything potentially harmful to your pet... store it securely.
