Fall is here in North Texas! 🍂🐾
Cooler weather means more time outdoors, but it’s still important to stay on top of year-round parasite protection, vaccinations, seasonal allergies, and routine wellness exams.
Keep your pets happy, healthy, and ready to enjoy the season with you.

Bad breath may be more than just “pet breath.” 🦷🐾
Dental disease can develop below the gumline, where problems aren’t always easy to see.
Watch for signs such as bad breath, red or swollen gums, drooling, difficulty chewing, or dropping food.
If something smells off, it may be time for a closer look. Contact Ables Animal Hospital to schedule your pet’s oral health check.
