Surprise visits are the best. I had planned to blog about my very interesting eye cases today but a unique visit has prompted me to postpone the eye case discussion. We got a phone call this morning from the owner of a SUPER STAR PET asking if she could honour her promise. Although I was […]

I can’t believe it’s already the 4th day of January 2012. Today is a very special day as it is my mom’s birthday. I wish I was celebrating her big day with her :-). I would like to start my post by wishing all my followers, blogging mates, pet lovers and of course furry, feathery & scaly […]

It has been a very intense two weeks at work. We have cases coming out of our ears as grass seed season has kicked in. We have started to get people walking in with their poor pooch shaking their heads or rubbing their eyes or licking their paws. It is only the beginning of this […]

Monday was looking good. Schedule was not too frantic, things were running smoothly and everything was under control. We got all too comfortable but then Tuesday came. My goodness, I really still don’t know how we managed to pull through and maintain any cognitive function at the end of the day. If we didn’t come […]

I am pleased to give everyone an update on ‘Gemma’. I only operated on her 10 days ago. She has bounced back and is on her way to a full recovery. Her examination showed her vitals were all okay and she is in the clear. I can not tell you how thrilled I am to […]

Just as we closed the doors to the clinic and finished up our Saturday morning consults, the afterhours emergency phone rang and I had to go treat a horse with a huge flesh wound. It was the sweetest horse and he cooperated so well with the whole process. As I was ready to leave the property, the farmers […]

I would first like to thank each and every one of you for taking the time to read my article entitled ‘The anti-pitbull breedist legislation’. I extend my sincere gratitude for all the contributions made via sharing your comments and taking the time to fill in the poll. I asked three questions and as promised, the results of […]

I had a very interesting question during one of my saturday consults. A client asked me if I often come across pets getting diagnosed with a disease that their owners incidentally have. I was baffled with the question because it does happen a lot but I can’t prove it to be an expected outcome. We also […]

So I had a pretty cruisy start to the week. Only had one dog castration in the morning and had enought time to make all my follow-up calls including checkups, discussing lab results and etc. In the afternoon, I was booked up with consults and it went smoothly but I confess I did run a bit late… […]

This week has been a very interesting one. It was pretty hectic the first half but then it slowed down on thursday and friday. I think it got quiet because of the horrid rainy and windy weather. Lots of our clients either cancelled their appointments or simply rescheduled. It has also been a week full […]
