π¦·πΎ Patient Spotlight - Lottie π©Ίπ¦·
Meet Lottie, an adorable 18-week-old Labrador who came in after her owner noticed she had smelly breath. Labs are known for getting into mischief... but this time it was simply teething!
She's just starting to lose her baby teeth, which can sometimes cause a bit of an odour as the gums change and new teeth come through. Totally normal - but definitely worth checking, just like Lottie's owner did. π
During her visit, Elyse, one of our amazing nurses, chatted about tooth brushing, how to introduce it slowly, and the best ways to keep those growing teeth healthy for life. Starting young is the perfect way to build good habits!
Well done, Lottie - you were such a good girl for your check-up! πΆβ¨
