FEBRUARY IS NATIONAL PET DENTAL HEALTH MONTH!
Just a reminder that February is the last month to take advantage of our 20% discount on dental cleanings for your pet. Studies have shown that a healthy mouth can add years to your pet's life. 80% of dogs and 70% of cats will have some form of dental disease before they turn three. Dental problems don't just affect the mouth, either. Dental disease can have adverse effects on the heart, kidneys, and other major organs. By performing routine cleanings before there are significant problems, we help our pets stay healthier longer. Don't turn your nose to your pet's bad breath! That odour might signify a serious health risk, with the potential to damage not only your pet's teeth and gums but their overall health as well! |

MANAGING TICKS IN WINTER
Pet owners should remain vigilant throughout the winter months. Ticks can survive the winter. |
Adult blacklegged ticks that are unable to find a host to feed on in the fall enter a resting phase when very cold temperatures and thick snow prevent them from questing for a host.
However, if during the winter months the air temperature rises to 4 degress and above, adult blacklegged ticks are able to become active again, even when there is still snow on the ground!
As such, vigilance is required even during the winter months to keep pets protected particulary for those pets that have a higher risk for exposure due to walks on trails, roaming large properties and even daily walks!
For this reason, we do recommend year round prevention. For those pets that are on seasonal tick prevention, we recommend starting in March which is right around the corner!
