📢 Update Alert! 📢 The Competition Bureau Canada released a letter to the Ontario Standing Committee on the Interior regarding Bill 171, which aims to amend Ontario's Veterinarians Act. In this letter, we shared two pro-competitive recommendations focused on enhancing access to pet medications and reducing prices for pet owners across Ontario: 1️⃣ Ensuring regulations respect pharmacists' ability to dispense and compound pet medication. 2️⃣ Considering mandating pharmacists' access to the supply of pet medications in Ontario. Our ongoing advocacy in this space is dedicated to fostering effective competition, potentially resulting in more affordable prices, improved access to care, and expanded consumer choice. Stay tuned for further updates as we continue to advocate for these important initiatives! 🐾 #PetCare #Bill171 #Advocacy #Ontario #PetMedications #CompetitionMatters

How to choose the best pet house for your animal friend

Pet licensing can feel like just an "added" expense, but this tiny investment is so much more powerful than you think — for you, your pet, and for the animals in your community. Here’s why: 🐾 It’s the law, and the licence fee is cheaper than the fine you may be subject to if you don’t license. 🐾 It helps your pet and others make it home safely. 🐾 When more pets are licensed, they can be quickly identified if lost which means they take up little to no space in shelters. 🐾 Local animals in need get the care (and hope for a furever home) they deserve when shelter space is opened up due to more identifiable and licensed pets.
