Easter is on the way, and soon our tables and homes will be filled with tasty chocolaty treats. While these treats are delicious for us, they are not at all good for our furry friends!

Chocolate Facts:
🍫 Toxic to pets in all forms, whether milk, dark, organic, etc.
🍫 Contains theobromine, a naturally occurring stimulant and caffeine
🍫 Symptoms of chocolate toxicity include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness, seizures and kidney or liver failure
🍫 High fat content in chocolate treats can also trigger gastrointestinal issues such as pancreatitis in susceptible pets
🍫 Treatment includes contacting your veterinarian immediately to induce vomiting. Hospitalization may be required

Keep pets safe this holiday weekend (and every day, because lets face it, chocolate is delicious all year long) by keeping treats in an airtight container, safely stored in a high cupboard and making sure that all family members know to only feed pet safe treats to Fluffy or Fido.

If your pet has ingested chocolate, please contact:
ASPCA Poison Control Hotline, available 24/7 at (888) 426-4435.

For after hours emergency care, please contact:
Animal Emergency Clinic of the Fraser Valley at 604-514-1711 OR
Boundary Bay Veterinary Specialty Hospital at 604-514-8383

🪳 Fleas are wingless, but are able to jump up to 8 inches vertically and up to 16 inches horizontally

Where are fleas found?
🌡️ Fleas thrive in warm, humid environments
🏠 Inside, fleas are found in pet bedding, upholstery, carpets, and in cracks and crevices
🌾 Outside, fleas can be found in tall grass, leaf litter and on other animals.

When are fleas active?
📆 In mild areas, fleas are active year-round
🌡️ Fleas thrive in warmer months
