We had to take our elderly pet in to be put to sleep. This was our first experience with anything like this. It was very emotional for us. The calm, patient nature of the vet really helped. She was so gentle and kind. I'm glad we chose Barrett Veterinary Practice.

Absolutely recommend this clinic. Right from the first phone call I made to book my first appointment, Tammy was kind, professional, very caring, trying to understand what my pets immediate needs were. Walking into the clinic on the same day, as my pet needed to be seen as she suddenly present with a painful and swollen eye. Dr Bridget was so respectful of what my pet needed to feel safe. Because Dr Bridget took the time with my dog and gave her a little to investigate and adjust, the exam and test she needed, when well. My dog was not nervous, and thw care was top notch. Thank you everyone at the clinic, job super well done.

The care a love for the animal is definitely apparent with Dr. Barrett and her staff at this veterinary practice. We saw the compassion and dedication in a very tragic situation with my mother's dog. She had a very large Great Pyrenees that had to be put down after a fall. He couldn't get back up and he was older so it was a very hard day. Both Dr. Barrett and Roxy were so amazing. We truly can't thank them enough. Thank you so much for making that experience easier. We were at our weakest point and they were so compassionate. Thank you from the bottom of our 💕 's.

If you are looking for an amazing vet practice that truly care about their clients, who are affordable - this is the vet for you! We have entrusted all our furry family with them! The compassion, care and HONEST feedback and suggestions is so refreshing! They have established a practice that encompasses what vets SHOULD be about - the animals! If I could rate 10 stars 🌟 I would! ❤️ It's worth the 10 min drive outside Calgary!

I bring my pup Zoey here and she absolutely loves the whole team! Her first time she was a little nervous as she can be cautious of strangers- but they made sure to give her the best experience possible and now Zoey is always excited to see her vet friends when we pull up :) I am so grateful for their exceptional care!!

Got your hay analysis back and it reads like a tax return? Totally normal.
Best to get an equine nutritionist who will walk you through protein, iron and non-structural carbs.

We love seeing your pets in our clinic but not so often! Lean pets get sick less and live longer. Dr. Beth would rather see yours for 15 years than 9.

Myth or muzzle: bad breath in dogs is just dog breath.

Dr. Beth says myth: if their mouth starts to smell, something's going on... Unless they just ate a dead gopher. That one's on them.

Vasectomy or full neuter? Dr. Beth gets asked this one a lot. Is a vasectomy enough? Does waiting change anything? What sticks around if he keeps his hormones?
