HOSPITAL TOUR

We are happy to help with your pet care needs - book an appointment, answer your questions and make you feel at home.

Our hospital is stocked with a substantial quantity of over-the-counter products that we believe are ideal for your pet.  This includes specialized shampoos, dental products, nutritional supplements, treats, ear cleaners, hairball remedies and more.

We have 4 rooms available for examinations and consultations, most simple procedures can be performed here.  

Following a thorough examination, the veterinarian will provide a diagnosis or formulate a diagnostic plan in order to address the concern effectively.

This is our main workspace where pets receive the medical attention applicable to their individual needs.  A portion of this space is used for the induction of anesthetic agents and preparation for surgery.

The surgical recovery/observation kennels are located in our main treatment area.  This allows us to watch over patients that have just undergone a surgical procedure or are recuperating from an illness that requires our close attention.

We have dedicated 'non-contagious' kennel rooms, used for hospitalized patients who have undergone a variety of procedures.  For the safety of all hospitalized pets, our patients must have a recent physical examination and vaccinations prior to being admitted to this area. 

Routine soft-tissue surgeries such as neuters and spays, as well as more complicated surgeries including splenectomies, tumour removals, and cystotomies are performed here.  

We administer the safest anesthetic agents and patients are continually monitored by our fully-trained technical staff.  Intravenous fluids are administered in order to maintain adequate blood pressure and provide proper hydration.  A supplemental heat source is used to maintain body temperature (Hot Dog veterinary warming system).  In addition to body temperature, your pet's blood pressure, CO2, oxygen saturation, heart rate and ECG are recorded during surgery.  Vital signs continue to be documented throughout the post-surgical recovery process.  

Clients will be notified with an update on their pet's condition following the procedure.

Here we utilize a medical imaging technique that uses high frequency sound waves and their echoes in order to diagnose illness or injury.  

Electrocardiography is also conducted here.  Electrocardiography is the recording of cardiac electrical activity from the body surface. It can be used not only to identify cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disturbances, but also chamber enlargement.

Various styles for dogs and cats.  All grooming services include nail trim, ear cleaning and anal gland expression.

See our grooming page for details.

The quality of X-Rays we produce enables the doctors to interpret and make concise recommendations. Our digital X-Ray processor allows us to develop our films quickly and with excellent quality.

In our lab we use an Idexx blood analyzer, centrifuge and microscope for some routine in-hospital lab work.  Much of our lab work is sent to our provincial veterinary lab at the University of Manitoba. We also send some lab samples outside of the province to provide the best possible interpretations and diagnoses.

Pharmacy

We can dispense most of the medications that your pet needs.  If we do not have a medication your pet requires, we may be able to order it for you.
