We are offering 10% off all dental cleanings for the month of September. Call us today to inquire about getting scheduled. 214-227-9018

Choosing between wet or dry food for your furry friend can be tough. Wet food is great for providing hydration and can be more flavorful for picky eaters, while dry food helps promote dental health and is often more convenient to store. Whichever you choose, make sure it meets your dog's nutritional needs! Call our vet if you need more help with your pup's nutrition plan. https://www.custerrdanimalhospital.com/

Let’s talk about heartworm disease and heartworm prevention. Heartworm disease is spread by mosquito bites. Not every mosquito carries the disease but you cannot predict when that bite may happen. We believe every dog should be on yearlong heartworm prevention. Like most things it is far better and more economical to prevent rather than to treat. There are options to accommodate every owner and pup ranging from oral tablets and chews, topical medications, and a 12 month long injectable medication. Call us today to get more detailed information.
That’s my dog Tacho. He’s fine. He’s just spoiled. 😉
