🦷🐾 Did you know that dental disease is one of the most common health problems in pets?

And unfortunately, many pets don’t show obvious signs that their mouth is bothering them.

Keep an eye out for:

🦷 Bad breath

🐶 Difficulty chewing

🩸 Red, swollen, or bleeding gums

🍽️ Dropping food while eating

🐾 Pawing at the mouth

😴 Decreased interest in food or treats

Regular dental exams help us catch problems early and keep those smiles healthy! ❤️

🐾 September is Animal Pain Awareness Month! 🐾

Pets can’t tell us when they’re hurting. Watch for signs like limping, hiding, changes in appetite, or less interest in play.

❤️ If you notice changes in your pet’s behavior, don’t ignore them. Early care can make a big difference!

🐾❤️ Our pets may not be able to tell you when something is wrong — but they have their own way of showing us.

A change in appetite, energy, behavior, drinking, or bathroom habits may be a sign that something is off. 🐶🐱

You know your pet best. If you notice a change, don’t ignore it. We’re here when you need us. 🩺

🐾 VET MYTH vs. FACT! 🐾

MYTH: “My indoor cat doesn’t need flea or parasite prevention.” 🐱

FACT: Even indoor-only pets can be exposed to parasites. Fleas can hitchhike into your home on clothing, shoes, or other pets—and some parasites can pose health risks to both pets and people.

Regular parasite prevention is an important part of keeping your furry family member healthy! ❤️
