First of the Month Reminder

The first of the month comes around quickly. Take the time now and do a little pet health care maintenance.


First of the Month Reminder -

- Time to apply flea and tick medication.    

- Give your pet a thorough grooming  -  check for sores that need to be cleaned

- Check your pets ears - are they nice and clean or do they have a bad odor?    If yes, clean the ears gently.    Ear problems are painful to our pets too.  

- Trim the toenails - remember the dew claws if your pet has them

-  Check to make sure the collar isn't too tight

-  Clean up the yard or kennel where your pet spends time

-  Did you know bad breath in pets may be caused by rotten teeth :(

***Plus - it's getting to be too warm to take your pet in the car.    Error on the side of safety.    Leave your pet home.

- Has your State Senator and State Representative earned your vote this November?
