Toe Nail Clipping is
extremely important for your pet. Some
dogs are very active and file their nails
on their own. However, other dogs that
spend more time indoors, or don't do very
much running around need some help in
keeping their toe nails short and
trimmed. If this is your dog's case, be
sure to have them clipped at least every
six to eight weeks. Don't allow too much
time to go by or the quick or vein will
grow with the nail and by the time they
get clipped, they can only be cut to the
quick or your dog will bleed. If you hear
your dog's nails when walking, they are
too long! |

Furballs can actually kill
your cat. Do not take it lightly! Make
sure your cat is given their remedy for
internal hair accumulation on a regular
basis. |

Small high maintenance dogs
(i.e. Lhasa's, Shih-Tzu's, Maltese,
Poodles, etc..) need to have the hair
inside their ears pulled. Hair inside the
ear creates moisture and therefore, makes
your dog prone to ear infections. |

If you have a Cocker Spaniel
or long eared dog, make sure his/her ears
are cleaned on a regular basis (at least
a few times a week). The weight of their
ears prevents air to get inside the ear
and creates ear infections.
"Smell" your dog's ears and
make sure they smell clean. Many times a
bad smell of the dog comes from the ears. |

Brushing your dog's teeth is
actually very good for their gums. If you
maintain a regular schedule for teeth
cleaning, you will slow down the process
of tarter building on your pet's teeth
longer and they will have healthier gums
and teeth as they get older. |
