For the month of February we are offering a limited time special for your pet’s blood work and dental care. These very important health issues are often overlooked by pet owners. Getting blood work and dental care is essential in the over all health of your pet.
The dental care is more obvious as you’ve probably already noticed a build up of tartar around your pet’s teeth. Just like people…this tartar build up is a result of bacteria living in the mouth. Bad breath is only one consequence of neglecting dental hygiene. There are other far more sinister health related issues that this build up of bacteria can inflict.
Tartar build up is easy to spot!
At this point you might be thinking…why would I need to get my pet’s blood work done? Look at this as your pet’s physical. Humans visit doctors for physicals and check-ups, and this is a great way to quickly identify any health related issues before they become life threatening. It works the same for pets. Checking your dog’s blood is a blue print into the over all health of your pet. As your pet gets older this physical is something all pet owner’s should consider.
I did a little research on blood work and was amazed at what can be discovered about your pet simply by examining their blood. I posted a few useful resources if you want to read more about blood work …what you can expect, what you can probably detect, and why this could extend your pet’s life.
