We are very excited to welcome two summer interns at West Kootenay Animal Hospital this summer.  Joselyn Reyolds is from Rossland, BC.  She is currently attending Queens University and completing an undergraduate degree in Life Sciences with the hope of attending veterinary school in the future.  Weston Gobbett has just completed his third year at Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Weston grew up in Grand Forks, BC and is very excited to be part of our team this summer.

February is National Pet Dental Health Month! This year, West Kootenay Animal Hospital will be giving away two gift baskets filled with dental care products and treats.  One basket for cats and one for dogs.  How do you get in on this fun give away, you ask?  All you have to do is to call and schedule your pet for a dental procedure during the month of February.  Dental cleanings, dental xrays and dental extractions that are scheduled during February 2016, are all eligible.  Winners will be notified and announced on our facebook page in March 2016.

It is with sad hearts that we announce Brittany will be leaving us to return to her home town of Regina.  Brittany joined the team at West Kootenay Animal Hospital in February 2015 and immediately made clients and pets feel at home when they arrived at West Kootenay Animal Hospital.  Her positive energy and laughter will be missed by the entire team, but we understand her need to be home with her family in Saskatchewan right now.  Good Luck Brittany, we know you will succeed at whatever adventure lies ahead!
