• an oral exam of the gums and teeth
• answering questions or issues you may have regarding your pet
• recommendations for your pet based on his/her stage of life
• review of any findings and make appropriate recommendations
• counseling on preventive care

It is hard to believe but summer is almost here!  That means graduations, vacations, and changes in many people’s schedules. For us, it may be exciting and a fun change of pace.  However, for many of our pets it can be a time of uncertainty and unsettling changes. Fortunately, for these pets that might become upset or anxious, there are new options in the medical behavior arena that can bring a sense of calm and assurance to help them through stressful situations.

Synthetic pheromones are products that have been around for a few years, but not widely used because pet owners have not been informed and made aware of them.  Pheromones are substances emitted by all animals that can affect and change the behavior of other individuals of the same species. The veterinary profession has two pheromone products, Adaptil for dogs and Feliway for cats, to help our furry family members adjust to unfamiliar situations.
