Next up to be highlighted for Veterinary Receptionist week is the amazing Jill!! Be sure to give her a big Thank You for all that she does the next time you are in the clinic!! This is what she had to say about herself!

"Hello everyone! I am a born and raised Alaskan and spent my childhood running through the woods hunting bears and catching salmon. I love all things outdoors and am currently training for my first marathon! I have spent the last few years moving around the country with my Navy husband which brought us to Virginia. When I’m not at the clinic or out in the sun, you can usually find me reading a book with a hot cup of tea."

Hello Everyone!

February is Dental Health Month! We are offering $100 off of your pet's dental cleaning. Please call our office to schedule an exam today!

We humans brush our teeth and get them checked and cleaned regularly to maintain good health—our pets should too! February is Pet Dental Health Month and a good time to share the importance that oral care plays in our pet’s overall wellbeing…especially since they are masters at hiding discomfort (while we can barely tolerate a toothache).

Ignoring a pet’s teeth can lead to dental disease, bad breath, and pain. Did you know that by the age of three, most dogs and cats have some degree of dental disease that only medical attention can treat? And that dental disease can lead to more severe health issues affecting their kidneys, liver, and heart?

What you can do?

#1 - At-home care: Brushing your pet’s teeth daily with pet-specific toothpaste is the best way to battle plaque and tartar. We can also recommend effective rinses, treats, and chews in addition to brushing.

#2 – Annual Check-Ups: We recommend getting teeth and gums examined at least once a year to look for any early signs of dental disease. Getting your pet’s mouth checked is especially critical if you notice any of these signs:

· Bad breath

· Yellow tartar buildup

· Red, swollen gums

· Favoring one side of the mouth when chewing or dropping food

· Bloody or “ropey” saliva or excessive drooling

· Blood on chew toys or in water bowl

#3 - Routine Professional Dental Cleanings: Every pet over the age of 18 months should start getting annual cleanings* (especially small/toy breeds) to:

· Prevent chronic dental disease from developing in the first place

· Catch and treat any problematic teeth to alleviate pain for your pet, keep infections from entering their bloodstreams, and stop the spread of disease to healthy teeth

If your pet is currently on a wellness plan that offers dental care, remember that routine exams and cleanings may be included. If you are interested in a wellness plan, please ask us for details.

Book their next exam or call us at (757) 482-3534 to keep their dental health on track.

Keeping your pets smiling, healthy, and happy is our passion and we hope this information helps with your pet dental plan! Learn more about how dental care is an important part of your pet’s overall health and wellbeing and what a dental cleaning involves and anesthesia in pets.

Just wanted to give a heads up that we are planning a PET PHOTO CONTEST for the near future!! The winners of this contest will have their pictures framed and displayed in the hallway of the clinic!! Please keep an eye out for further details to be posted about this contest!!
