want to recommend a couple of terrific vets. Dr Shannon Lee just finished an internship in exotics at the University of Guelph, and is now practising at Burloak Animal Clinic. she's always ready to discuss all aspects of a ferret's condition, and researches information for anything out of the ordinary. she also takes information I give her seriously. all the interns I've met via the University of Guelph had been terrific (the new one seems awfully nice too), and I'm glad one has settled in the area. Dr Shannon Lee Burloak Animal Clinic 905-827-1171 3060 Lakeshore Road West, Oakville, ON L6L 1J2 and a vet that's closer to where I live, Dr St Pierre. she's had 15+ years of experience with exotics, and is constantly updating her skills with courses and such. even though I take my ferrets to Guelph for adrenal and such, she's always happy to discuss their conditions with me and share her experience.
