Free Dental Check

Dental disease is often under reported in our friends and can lead to poor oral hygiene. Poor periodontal health has been suggested to increase the risk of heart disease in dogs due to the overwelming bacteria that circulates in their blood stream from the mouth. We generally recommend that your pet is checked every 6 months for dental disease so that poor periodontal health can be picked up earlier if present. The team at Parkinson Vet would be delighted to offer you free dental check ups to ensure that your pet stays healthy.
