DENTAL HEALTH
One of the most important things that we try to promote to our clients is the importance of quality dental health. Studies have shown that good dental health does help to increase the lifespan of your pet. Here are a couple web sites that will help you and your pet obtain quality dental health:
- Amweican Veterinary Dental College https://www.avdc.org/carefordogs.html is approved by veterinary dentists. It provides an extensive list of chews, treats, rinses, etc.
- Healthy Mouth is specifically for a water additive that is approved by the veterinary dentists mentioned above. This product has quickly become a favorite of Dr. Gallagher.
- Hill’s provides an excellent food (we promote it as a treat): Tooth Diet (t/d). This food adheres to the surface of your pets teeth to help break up the calculus. Dogs love it & love to chew!
