🧡 Remembering the pets who will always have a place in our hearts.

Our Día de los Mu***os tradition is back, and our waiting room is ready! We’ve decorated the clinic and set out remembrance cards where you can write the name of a beloved pet who has passed away.

This has been a special tradition for our community over the past few years, and we’re happy to keep it going. ❤️

If you’re visiting us, or would simply like to stop by, we welcome you to add your pet’s name and join us in honoring the love and memories they left behind.

Once part of our family, always part of our family. 🐾🕯️

"Pet breath" isn't just a funny quirk! For both dogs and cats, it's usually the first sign of dental disease hiding beneath the gumline. 🦷

Whether you have a pup who loves giving kisses or a cat who's quietly dealing with sensitive gums, we're here to help keep their mouths healthy and pain-free. Enjoy 15% off professional dental cleanings and procedures for dogs and cats all through October!

What the 15% discount covers:
• Ultrasonic dental cleanings & polishing
• Full-mouth dental X-rays
• Dental surgical procedures & extractions
• Post-op dental prescriptions

Because patient safety always comes first, every pet must have an initial physical exam before scheduling an anesthetic procedure. (The preliminary exam and any required pre-op bloodwork are billed at our standard clinic rates).

Dental procedure slots fill up quickly each week. Give us a call at (562) 426-4066 to get your dog or cat on the schedule!

Ever had an appointment scheduled, but your dog woke up with a soft stool or skipped breakfast? Don't cancel just yet.

Giving a shot to an already sick pet means their body can't build proper protection, but you don't always need to skip the visit entirely. Before you cancel, give us a quick call. Our team will let you know whether to pause the shot and treat the symptoms first instead.

We broke down the full checklist on our blog: what symptoms mean "pause shots," why parasite protection comes first, and post-visit signs to watch for.

Sometimes, cats don’t show us they’re in pain. 🐱🦷

Swipe to see Stuart’s dental transformation. ➡️
Before → After

The buildup you see in the first photo is more than “dirty teeth.” Plaque and tartar can contribute to gum inflammation, infection, and painful dental disease.

And cats can be surprisingly good at hiding discomfort. They may keep eating even when their mouth needs attention.

Take a quick look at your cat’s teeth:
🦷 Brown or yellow tartar
🩸 Red or bleeding gums
👃 Persistent bad breath
😿 Difficulty chewing or dropping food

Bad breath isn’t something you simply have to accept as your cat gets older. It can be a sign that their mouth needs veterinary attention.

If you notice changes in your cat’s teeth, gums, or breath, schedule an oral exam with your veterinarian.
