🦷🪥 February is Dental Health Month! 🪥🦷

Is your pet’s breath smelling a little too funky? 🦠

Are they having trouble eating or showing signs of sore teeth? 🤕

These could be signs of dental disease, and your pet might need some extra TLC.

Here’s how you can help prevent dental issues at home:

🦷 Brush your pet’s teeth regularly (it’s easier than you think!)
🦷 Dental diets (like Hills, Royal Canin, or Purina) help maintain healthy teeth.
🦷 Water additives for oral health (try HealthyMouth for a simple solution!)
🦷 Dental chews & toys that help scrape away plaque.

But regular cleanings under general anesthesia are essential for long-term health. A professional cleaning removes tartar and prevents more serious issues from developing! 🩺

Don’t wait for signs of discomfort—get a head start on your pet’s dental health today! We’ve got everything you need, from pet-friendly toothpaste to specialty dental foods that target plaque. 🪥

Stop by our clinic, or contact us to learn more about how we can help your pet smile bright!

January is Train your Dog Month 🐾🐕

Are you getting a new puppy or have an old dog you want to teach new tricks? This is the month to do it! 🗓️

Obedience classes are a great way to establish ground rules with your new puppy, or a great refresher of manners for adult dogs. 🐕

💼📑📓🤓It’s Practice Manager Appreciation Week! 🤓📓📑💼

Meet Jennifer!

Jennie has been the glue holding this clinic together since its opening in 2005! She brings such a positive and welcoming atmosphere to the team and strives to continue to do so.

Jennie studied at the University of Guelph earning her Bachelor of Agricultural, and shortly after became a Certified General Accountant.

Jennie grew up on a dairy farm in Almonte before meeting her husband and having a family of 3 boys.

In Jennie’s spare time she enjoys golfing, bowling, snowmobiling, and cottaging! She will never turn down a good glass of wine either 😉

Jennie truly does so much behind the scenes at WCAH, we cannot thank her enough for her care and devotion to her work.

We are such a lucky group to have Jennie leading us to success!

Thank you for everything you do Jennie!
