Ever wonder what happens during a doggie dental? 🦷
At 6 years old, Charlie the goldendoodle had tarter buildup on his teeth, that was also causing gingival inflammation. An ultrasonic scaler was used to remove the buildup, above and below the gum line, before being polished. Now Charlie has a fresh smile and can show off his pearly whites! 🦷✨🤩

🕷️🐾 Tick Season Is Here, And It’s Expected to Be a Tough One 🐾🕷️
As the weather warms up, ticks are becoming more active—and this year is shaping up to be a heavy tick season. That means a higher risk for diseases like Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, and Anaplasmosis for our pets.
The good news? Prevention is simple and highly effective.
💊 Preventative options include:

Monthly oral or topical preventatives

And now Bravecto Quantum, a newer injectable option that provides year round protection, making it easier than ever to keep your pet covered.

📞 Let’s keep your pets safe, happy, and tick-free

Tick season is off to an early and intense start across the U.S., with unusually high numbers of bites already reported.
