We provide At-Home Dental Care Education to help you maintain your pet’s oral health between professional cleanings. This includes guidance on brushing techniques, dental treats, water additives, and signs of dental disease to watch for. Good at-home care extends the time between cleanings and improves your pet’s overall dental health.

Our surgeries are performed with sterile techniques and pain management to ensure a smooth recovery. Spaying/neutering is a routine procedure with lifelong health benefits.
