Get your pet some dental treats or chews! Dental chews help cut down the plaque and tartar buildup on your pets teeth which can be essential in helping fight off oral diseases and preventing intensive dental cleanings. They can also help improve their breath. Let’s face it. No one wants to snuggle up with their furry companion only to get a whiff of unpleasant breath in your face.
Oravet is a great option for dogs while the Purina Crunchy Bites are cat approved! Best of all, both of these options are approved and backed by the Veterinary Oral Health Council so you can trust you’re getting a quality product!

Salt dough (made of flour, water and salt) is a cheap and easy way to craft during the holidays. Just remember to keep pets away from this dough. As its name suggests, salt dough has a LOT of salt 🧂 in it and can lead to unsteadiness, muscle tremors, and can be fatal for pets. 💀

If you are looking for a safer alternative, buying clays like air dry clays that have the AP seal, which indicates they are safer, are the way to go. For these doughs, while some tummy upset may still occur if your pet accidently eats it, it should not be potentially fatal.

While a savings account is a good way to fund your pet's routine care, unexpected accidents and illnesses can quickly break the bank – leaving you with a veterinary bill that your savings account may not cover.

Ensure your pet's well-being (and your own financial peace of mind) with pet medical insurance. Be sure to ask your veterinarian at your next visit!

Ticks that carry Lyme disease can be found in rural areas as well as cities and other places where you would least expect them. And while ticks are most active from March to November, some can become active any time the temperatures are above freezing throughout the winter months. Contact us today to set up an appointment if your pet is not current with their Lyme vaccination and be sure to continue your monthly heartworm, flea, and tick prevention products all year long.
