🦷 February is Dental Health Month 🦷

A common question we get is: “is brushing my pet’s teeth really necessary?”
The answer is YES! 🪥✨

Daily brushing is ideal, but we know it can be a challenge (especially if your pet has mastered the art of escape!). Feel free to ask our veterinarians tips on how to incorporate brushing into your routine!

🐾 Why Dental Care Matters:
Without regular care, plaque hardens into tartar, leading to painful gum disease, tooth decay, and even infections that can affect the heart, kidneys, and liver. A little effort now can prevent serious (and costly) problems later!

💡 How to Start Brushing:
1️⃣ Make pet-safe toothpaste a treat!
2️⃣ Introduce tools gradually—start small!
3️⃣ Use praise, treats & patience.
4️⃣ Try a finger brush or washcloth if a toothbrush is too much.
5️⃣ If brushing isn’t an option, explore dental diets, chews, or vet-approved water additives!

If your pet resists brushing, discomfort could be a factor. A dental check-up can rule out painful issues and set your pet up for success. 💙

Trinket came for her visit in her winter Jacket ❤️
She wants to remind everyone to stay warm!! 🐾❄️

With the chilly weather settling in, it’s important to keep your furry friends warm and comfortable!

Here are a few tips to help your pup stay cozy:

🧥 Bundle Up: Short-haired and small breeds may need a sweater or coat to keep warm during walks.

🐾 Protect Those Paws: Ice, snow, and salt can irritate paw pads. Use pet-safe balm or booties for extra protection.

🏠 Stay Indoors: Limit outdoor time when temperatures drop too low, and make sure your pet has a warm, draft-free space at home.

💦 Stay Dry: Wet fur can quickly lead to chills. Dry your dog off after walks and avoid letting them sit in the cold while damp.

🐕‍🦺 Monitor Playtime: Even the most active pups can get cold! Watch for signs like shivering, whining, or lifting paws off the ground.

What’s your pup’s favorite way to stay warm? Send us a picture or share in the comments below! 🐶✨

🐱Caring for Your Senior Cat 🐱

As cats age, their needs change, and they rely on us more than ever to ensure they stay happy and healthy. Senior cats often hide signs of pain or illness, but small changes in grooming, eating, litter box habits, or activity can be key clues.

👀 Signs to Watch For
👉Grooming less (or over-grooming)
👉Changes in appetite or water intake
👉Litter box troubles
👉Hesitation to jump or climb
👉Vocalization or personality shifts

💜What You Can Do
✅Regular vet checkups (twice a year is ideal)
✅Keep them hydrated with wet food or fountains
✅ Provide cozy, low-stress environments
✅Try tools like smart collars, health trackers, or special litter

Small actions can make a big difference in their comfort and quality of life❤️
