“Soup” served up a big helping of love this week by donating blood to help other pets in need!

Fun Fact: Dogs have more than 8 different blood types, and just like people, finding the right match is super important for safe transfusions. Some breeds, like Pit Bulls, are more likely to have DEA 1 negative type and are considered universal donors. 🩸🐾

Got questions about your pet's dental health? We’ve got answers! 🦷

1. "How often should my pet’s teeth be cleaned?"
- Most pets need a professional dental cleaning once a year, but your vet will recommend a schedule based on your pet’s age, breed, and dental condition.

2. "Are dental X-rays necessary?"
- Yes! X-rays allow us to detect hidden issues beneath the surface, like infections or tooth root problems, that can’t be seen during a regular exam.

3. "What is gingivitis?"
- Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease, causing redness, swelling, and irritation in the gums. It’s often caused by plaque buildup and can lead to more severe dental problems if left untreated.

Have more questions? Our team is here to help! Schedule a dental check-up today and keep your pet’s smile bright and healthy. 🐾✨
