We are always out there in search of the cutest latest outfit, the best grooming prouducts, so try this amazing product if you haven't already done so. "According to the American Veterinarian Dental Society, 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats show signs of oral disease by age three, often indicated by bad breath, a change in eating or chewing habits, pawing at the face and mouth and depression. Besides causing receding gums and tooth loss, the infection may enter the bloodstream, potentially infecting the heart, liver and kidneys. "Oral disease is the most frequently diagnosed health problem for pets," said Dr. Henry Childers, DVM, president of the AVMA. "Just as the public has come to realize that their own oral health is linked to their overall health, veterinarians want people to understand that dental health care is essential to maintaining the overall health and well-being of the family pet." Bacteria, combined with saliva and food debris between the tooth and gum, can cause plaque formulations on the tooth, which turns to tartar. If not removed from the teeth, pockets of infection may appear along the gum line, separating the teeth from the gum. If untreated, this disease, called periodontitis, can lead to tooth loss and the infection caused by the disease may enter the bloodstream, potentially infecting the heart, liver and kidneys."[/I] (text taken from the website: http://www.avma.org/press/releases/0...et_dental.asp) This article also talks about the importance of regular vet visits and ask your vet for a complete oral vet care check. Here is another great site that offers more information about tarter/plaque build-up, what to look for, and images http://www.oxfordanimalhospital.com/...pet_dental.htm So please take the time to assess your pet's teeth and make it a priority that your pet gets regular care and brushing.

The Sassy Pup Boutique offers a great pricing on the spray, gel and an even better deal on the combo. Jennie :animal-pa |
