When we talk about hooks on teeth in a horse’s mouth, this is what we mean. These hooks can inhibit the normal chewing motion of the jaw leading to quiding, weight loss, and malnourishment if left untreated.

It’s that time of year again in Colorado. Plus, with how warm our ‘winter’ was it’s a good idea to get your dog up to date on their heartworm tests and prevention.

April is Heartworm Awareness Month. The American Heartworm Society recommends heartworm testing once a year and using heartworm prevention all year long. Missing just one dose of heartworm prevention can lead to a pet getting infected. If you and your pet are headed to the veterinarian’s office this spring for an annual check-up, be sure you leave the clinic with heartworm prevention!
