Don't turn your nose to your pet's bad breath! That odor might signify a serious health risk, with the potential to damage your pet's teeth and gums and its internal organs as well.

Have your pet's teeth checked sooner rather than later if you observe any of the following:
- Bad breath
- Broken or loose teeth
- Extra teeth or retained baby teeth
- Teeth that are discolored or covered in tartar
- Abnormal chewing, drooling, dropping food from the mouth
- Reduced appetite or refusal to eat
- Pain in or around the mouth
- Bleeding from the mouth
- Swelling in the areas surrounding the mouth

Be My Valentine - But Don't Share the Sweets Alth

Be My Valentine - But Don't Share the Sweets

Although most are familiar with the fact that chocolate is not to be shared with our furry friends, it is important to be mindful of sweets in general around Valentine's Day. Unfortunately, they are often too rich for our pets, which can cause stomach upset, can contain xylitol (an artificial sweetener) that has been found to cause liver failure and even death in dogs and cats.

My Valentine Doesn’t Like to Take Oral Medicatio

My Valentine Doesn’t Like to Take Oral Medication!

Here are four creative tips to try when your FurrEver Valentine doesn’t like to take his or her oral medication:

1) Make it a Game
First, encase the pill in a tasty treat, like a small piece of cheese, a canned food meatball, some peanut butter, or a pill pocket. Don’t make it too big. The goal is for the dog to gulp it down, not to chew it. Put this aside and give the give the dog the same treat without the pill. Then give the dog a second “empty” treat. Now pick up the treat-encased pill and hold it right next to the dog’s nose, but don’t let the dog eat it! Pull it away. For a second time, move it within an inch of the dog’s nose and take it away. Finally, hand the dog the treat-covered pill. After it’s eaten, quickly follow up with a fourth treat without a pill. The hope is for the game and all the treats to be so engrossing that the dog barely notices the pill.

2) Crush it and mix into food
Mixing crushed medication with food can work if the pill doesn’t have a strong, unpleasant taste. Use soft food with an enticing odor, like a canned diet or cooked chicken. Do not mix medication with the pet’s regular diet as this may lead to food refusal if the dog starts associating the bad taste of the medication with their food. It’s not a good idea to crush some types of pills or open certain capsules, so ask a veterinarian before making this recommendation if you are unsure.

3) Use gelatin capsules
Empty gelatin capsules are available through many drug stores. Your client can put less-than-tasty pills inside to hide their flavor while they are in the dog’s mouth.

4) Learn how to physically give a pill
Call your veterinarian to schedule a lesson in how to properly pill your furry friend.
