“Rescue animals aren’t broken.
They’ve simply
experienced more life than other animals.
If they were human, we would call them wise.
They would be the ones with tales to tell and stories to write; the ones dealt a bad hand who responded with courage.
Don’t pity them.
Do something.
Help to rescue.

Adopt!
And be proud to have their greatness by your side.“

Today I took my Labs “Boomer” and “Harley” to my Vet’s office to have their teeth cleaned.
My Vet offers a new non-anesthetic procedure which means I don’t have to worry about any negative side-effects from using anesthesia on my dogs, who are now 6 years
old. The process is quite effective and I just leave them there for a few hours for the procedure.
The American Veterinary Dental Society reports that 70-85% of dogs and cats show signs of oral disease by age 3. Not only will a clean mouth make your doggie more pleasant to be around but some studies have shown that improved oral hygiene can actually add years to your dog’s life… and that means more years you share together.
And who doesn’t want more of that?
Quick Tips:
♥ Our Vet suggests this type of cleaning at least twice of year (the same as humans). Our cost was about $160/dog per treatment for Cavitron scaling, polished teeth and a chlorhexidine oral rinse. Not bad when you consider the long-term benefits.

♥ Once the procedure restores their teeth to a pearly white, why not consider taking some pictures of the new smiles, or scheduling a professional photo session?
♥ Flying Doggies offers doggie dental products that you can use in-between professional procedures that may be of help for you and your pack.
♥ Always check with your Vet about which procedures and products are most appropriate for your pet.
Cheers to ringing in the New Year with clean teeth…
a healthy pack…
and many years to come!

1/4 cup | Whole Cloves

1 Quart | Water
What To Do:

2. “Sniff-in” the holiday scent; do not eat/drink.
3. Re-fill water level often and discard contents when you’re done with it.
