❓❔Did you know..❔❓

Dogs and cats rarely, if ever, get cavities like us! That’s because their diet has way less sugar than ours. Sugar is required for the plaque to create the acidic substance that causes cavities.

🦷For pets, most dental issues are caused by periodontal disease which is inflammation of the tooth’s supporting structures. Periodontal disease is mostly caused by bacteria (which we know as plaque and calculus) and it involves bone loss causing loose, painful teeth and internal disease if it’s not treated in a timely manner.

🐱Cats can also get a tooth issue call Feline Oral Resorptive Lesions (FORL) that are caused by the cat’s body rather than the acidic substance that causes cavities.

💦“I use this water additive for their teeth but I’m not sure if it even works.”
🪥“Have you ever heard of this gel for their teeth? Does it work?”

There are so many products out on the market that it can be so overwhelming and hard to know if they even help! Did you know there is actually an organization that sets testing protocols and then reviews submitted data from products tested to see if they actually do what they say?

🦷 The Veterinary Oral Health Council gives their seal of approval to products that take the time to test their products and prove they actually work! Their products can then put the seal on their packaging so you can see which products are proven!

📋They also have lists on their website of the approved products for dogs or cats! The lists include chews, pastes, gel, water additives, and foods that have gone through the rigorous testing and are proven! You can find them at www.vohc.org

Nothing beats brushing their teeth but there are many ways to help keep their mouths as healthy as possible between dental cleanings!

🏈 It’s Super Bowl Sunday!🏈

Who are we rooting for? What are we eating? Or are we avoiding it all together? 🫣😂

❤️🩷Valentine’s Day is coming! 🩷❤️

🍫Remember keep those chocolatey treats away from your furry companions

💐If you elect for a mixed flower arrangement rather than just roses be sure they are free of lilies if you have kitties! Lilies cause kidney failure with even the smallest sniff or nibble!! Delphiniums are also toxic to pets so try avoid them as well!

🎉WVHC would like to celebrate Melany today for her birthday!!!! 🎉

Mel is truly a joy to work with, from her simple enjoyment in our patient’s antics to her knowledge and experience in veterinary medicine, animal handling, and dog training. She is an integral part of our small team and we are so grateful to work with her every day!

We expect that for her birthday she will be spending some quality time with her dog Renzo, and enjoying some much deserved relaxation.

🥳Happy Happy Birthday to Melany!!!!!🥳

It’s really hard when the house call appointment is not about you… 😂 We love seeing the whole family when we visit! Even if we aren’t there to see them all for medical care. 🥰

Moxie and Bernie think it was not fair that it was all about Coco. 😩 Poor things got stuck in jail while Coco got all the pets and treats… don’t let them fool you… in actuality, they joined in later and got plenty of love too 🥰

🛠️The WVHC Team has been busy most weekends for the last month getting ready for a great surprise! We’re moving to a new building right on Highway 20!

📦We are still getting the building prepped for our move but we’ll keep you posted on when we officially move shop!

Here are some photos of the work we’ve done so far! We’re in the final stretch! Just another coat of paint on a couple walls, baseboard trim, and hooking up the dental table and we should be ready for the big move!

Thank you Floors Plus Carpet One team for your excellent work on the flooring!! You’ve been amazing to work with!

One of the best things about being a house call practice is how many relaxed, confident, social cats we get to see!

In the clinic setting, even the more social cats can be stressed enough that we as a staff don’t get to see their full, lovely personalities.. that can be very different when we go to their house!! They may still not love the part involving the actual vet care but many are at least still happy to stick around when it’s done. ❤️

Interested in a house call appointment for your feline friend? Give us a call!
