Calving season doesn’t always stick to business Calving season doesn’t always stick to business hours - and when you’re hauling in at midnight, we don’t want anything to be a surprise. 🚜 Where to Come: Our trailer entrance is located beside Jiffy Lube Pull around to the start of the chute, begin backing up, and unload your… 🐮 Bessie the Boss Lady 🐮 Moolissa 🐮 or whatever you’ve lovingly (or not so lovingly) named her this week😉 Once unloaded, our new calving chute system will safely guide your heifer straight into the maternity pen where we can get to work quickly and efficiently. The goal? Less chaos. Less stress. Better outcomes. 🐄 How Producers Can Prepare Emergencies move fast — preparation saves time. ✔️ Make sure your trailer is hooked up ✔️ Tires are aired up ✔️ Plugged in if it’s cold ✔️ Clear and accessible to haul at a moment’s notice When it’s go-time, you don’t want to be digging out a frozen hitch at 1:30 AM. 🚨 What Qualifies as a Calving Emergency? If you’re wondering whether to call — call. We’re here 24/7. But generally, emergencies include: 🟤 Active pushing for 30+ minutes with no progress 🟤 Feet showing but no advancement 🟤 Only one leg coming 🟤 Nose but no feet 🟤 Backwards calf (tail first) 🟤 Significant bleeding 🟤 A large calf that won’t pass 🟤 Water bag out for 2+ hours with no progress 🟤 Twins that aren’t lining up properly If something doesn’t look right, trust your gut. 📞 Our on-call veterinarians are available by phone 24/7. Please call our Olds location at 403-556-6882 or our Sundre location at 403-638-3774 anytime you have an emergency. We’re here to help, day or night to keep your cows safe and your calves coming strong. For additional guidance when making that difficult call, we recommend reviewing the Calf 911 Calving Decision Tree from the Beef Cattle Research Council — an excellent resource to help assess labour progress and determine when veterinary assistance is needed: https://www.beefresearch.ca/content/uploads/2023/03/calving-decision-chart-with-QR.png - #AlbertaBeef #AlbertaAg #CalvingSeason2026 #Pioneer
Today we had our very own Snow Angel show up at Today we had our very own Snow Angel show up at the Olds clinic! A huge thank you to Jordan, who dropped off sweet Belle for her surgery this morning… and then grabbed a shovel and cleared our walks before heading out. 🐾❤️ What an incredible act of kindness! While our team was busy welcoming in all the other critters for their procedures, Jordan made sure our clients and patients had a safe, clear path to the door. That kind of thoughtfulness does not go unnoticed. We are so grateful for wonderful humans like you. Thank you for looking out for us the way we look out for your pets. 💙 Belle is lucky to have you — and so are we!

We know how stressful obstruction surgeries can be We know how stressful obstruction surgeries can be, and we’re so glad we could support both you and your pup during those times. 🤎 Thank you so much for your kind words and trust, Stephanie! - Full Review: My dog has had obstruction surgery two different times here. The front desk staff are amazing, they treated my dog and I so good during a stressful time. Dr Lisa is amazing, she is a fantastic surgeon and vet. My dog was treated with such care, I was informed of everything happening. I would highly recommend this vet for quality care and reasonable price.Entirely grateful that they saved my dogs life 2 different times. Thank you!

We offer dental cleanings/procedures all year roun We offer dental cleanings/procedures all year round, but this month is extra special! ✨ February is Dental Month! 🦷 This before-and-after showcases an amazing transformation! This 10-year-old Corgi was like most geriatric dogs - she needed a really good cleaning! Our RVT and DVM performed a COHAT - comprehensive oral health assessment and treatment. This consisted of: 🦷 a cleaning (scaling), 🦷 polishing, and 🦷 radiographs in preparation for the doctor's exam! After the exam, the doctor elected that no extractions were necessary! What's the key to minimizing extractions for your pets? Committing to routine dental cleanings! 📆 Every patient is different, but most doctors recommend a cleaning every 1-2 years. ✨ To book your dental consultation or procedure, call us at either Sundre or Olds Pioneer Vet! ☎️ Olds: 403-556-6882 or ☎️ Sundre: 403-638-3774

✨ Meet Sadie — one of our amazing Tech Assista ✨ Meet Sadie — one of our amazing Tech Assistants! ✨ Sadie is a familiar smiling face around our Sundre clinic, and we truly appreciate everything she brings to the team. Always ready to lend a hand, she jumps in wherever she’s needed and never hesitates to help her teammates - a quality we value so much in the clinic. She grew up southwest of Edmonton surrounded by horses, dogs, chickens, and cats, which sparked a lifelong love for animals. Today, Sadie lives on her family farm near Sundre with horses and dogs, and she absolutely enjoys meeting sweet patients like Taquido (pictured below!). Sadie is a huge help in the clinic after school, and we’re so grateful for her steady work ethic, kind heart, and positive spirit. Make sure to say hi when you’re in Sundre next - she’s one of the good ones! 🐶🌾
🤎 Preventive healthcare involves a multimodal a 🤎 Preventive healthcare involves a multimodal approach that includes veterinary evaluation of your pet’s overall health and their risk for disease or other health problems. Based on our findings, we will provide you with recommendations for your pet’s health, including nutrition, dental care, vaccinations, deworming, as well as recommendations tailored to your pet’s health status and risk factors. 👍 Early diagnosis and treatment of a particular process can increase the likelihood of a successful outcome for your pet. Typically, the cost of prevention is also often a fraction of the cost of treating an advanced disease or problem. When you keep your pet up-to-date on preventative care, you are helping to ensure we are not missing a disease process that could have been prevented or easily treated. 📍 Olds: 403-556-6882 📍 Sundre: 403-638-3774
