Dental Health

The Australian Veterinary Dental society has found that by the age of just 3 years old 70% of cats and 80% of dogs are affected by periodontal disease and it is by far the most common of all diseases found in cats and dogs. One of the early warning signs is bad breath from your pet which is caused by bacteria that seek out plaque and tartar (that’s the orange or yellow colour that you often see at the gum line of your pet’s teeth). Other symptoms include gums that bleed after chewing and difficulty in eating hard foods may also be a sign that your pet is suffering from periodontal disease.
