Owners in self-isolation or who have tested positive for COVID-19 may have animals delivered to the veterinary practice for non-elective treatment.
IT IS YOUR OBLIGATION TO NOTIFY US ABOUT THIS TO ALLOW US TIME TO TAKE EXTRA MEASURES
WE REQUEST that clients DO NOT attend at their veterinary practice in-person if:
They have recently returned from travel outside Canada
They are feeling ill, exhibiting respiratory illness signs (flu/cold-like), even if not tested yet
They have been in contact with an individual that has tested positive for COVID-19
WE ASK you to respect social distancing (6 FEET) measures - limit one person attending per patient.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
There is currently no evidence to suggest that pets can be contaminated with this virus, BUT we can consider that the virus can be carried temporarilty on their coat or skin
It is possible that some types of animals can be infected with COVID-19, but there is no evidence that pets or other animals can spread the virus. There are still many unknowns about COVID-19 and this is an area that remains to be studied and understood.
Until we know more, if you have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and have a pet or other animal:
Avoid close contact with them
Practice good coughing etiquette
Do not snuggle or kiss them, or let them lick you, sit on your lap, or sleep in your bed
Avoid coughing and sneezing on your animals
Have another member of your household care for your animals - if this is not possible, always wash your hands before touching or feeding them
Limit your animal's contact with other people and animals - this may mean keeping them indoors
________________________________________________________________________________________________
We want our clients to know that it is our priority to provide high quality professional care to their pets and to assure that the owners are well informed and comfortable with the decisions we make regarding their pets care.
This family run small animal clinic has grown quite a bit over the last few years to accommodate the growing pet community. Our staff members are dedicated to the care of animals and they are willing to do whatever is necessary to make our clients comfortable with the quality of care for their pets.
