LOOKING after your furry friend’s teeth is just as important as looking after your own. Good dental health for all your pets can be the difference between a happy, healthy life for your beloved fur baby.

This February, GV Vets encourages all pet owners to pay a little extra attention to their pet’s teeth to celebrate Dental Month. To help your pet receive the dental care it needs, GV Vets is offering free dental checks with a nurse and a discount on dental procedures.

Dr Frances Jenner, veterinarian and owner at GV Vets, understands the importance of protecting your furry friend’s oral health and the risks associated with poor dental care.

“Left untreated, dental issues lead to pain, tooth loss, and can start to affect other vital organs in the body. We would much rather intervene earlier and perform a preventative dental cleaning procedure and help to teach owners how to maintain healthy teeth!” said Dr Jenner.
