Dental disease is a serious concern for dogs and cats, but with the right care and regular monitoring, you can prevent or slow its progression. Staging the disease helps veterinarians determine the level of intervention needed and provides a clear path for treatment. Remember, early detection and action are key to maintaining your dog or cat's health and comfort.

If you suspect your dog or cat may be showing signs of dental disease, give us a call! A healthy mouth leads to a happy, healthy pet!

For many of us, Watching our dog p*e is not at the top of our priority list. But monitoring your dog’s urine can detect infections early before they are severe.
At least 3 times a week, count the number of times your dog goes to p*e during the day. Most dogs do not p*e more than 4 or 5 times during the day.
Once a week, use a white piece of toilet paper to see if the p*e is a normal color.
If you see any of the following, contact your veterinarian :
- p*eing small frequent amounts
- p*e that is an abnormal color or odor
- straining to p*e

**** these are images of a bladder stone. This patient had an episode of pink/ bloody urine and her owner brought her in to investigate. She had no other signs of problems at home.
