Third Annual Health Clinic Recap
Our third annual health clinic was held at Shoreview North Oaks Animal Hospital on Sunday February 28, 2009. Auscultations were performed by Dr. Anthony Tobias, BVSc PhD Dip ACVIM. Fifty-one Cavaliers had heart checks done this year.
Dr. Robert Larocca, DVM, DACVO did our CERF eye exams checking thirty-nine sets of eyes.
AKC CAR microchips were implanted in ten Cavaliers by club member, Dr. Paul Draheim, DVM.
Our thanks to Paul and his wife, Cindy, for once again hosting our clinic at their office. We had a fantastic response in spite of weather, numerous sniffles, and the unexpected devouring of the helpers' desserts by one opportunistic Cavalier!
51 + 39 + 10 = 100 health checks performed! Read our mission statement: About Us

HOLIDAY PARTY

Pet Junction
In November, the Twin Cities CKCS Club hosted a Cavalier Party at Pet Junction in Shoreview. Club members were joined by both prospective members and drop-in visitors, along with their Cavaliers, for a festive day of food, games and fun. For amusement, games included "Guess My Breed", Musical Chairs" and "Tic-Tac-Toe" with the Cavaliers acting as placeholders. Diane Hagler was on hand to take photographs, and Cavaliers and people alike enjoyed time together.
