If your Dalmatian has unusually bad breath give your vet a call to schedule an exam as your dog may have gingivitis. Sometimes inflamed gums and bad breath can be an early sign of gingivitis. Your vet is the only one who can make a diagnosis and recommend treatment if needed. He will most likely ask you for a detailed history of your Dalmatian’s overall health. Be prepared to describe any symptoms your Dalmatian may be experiencing including when the symptoms appeared and how long they last.

Your bird is a playful creature, and you enjoy being able to offer her lots of playtime whenever you can. You’re a good playmate too, but you aren’t always available for your pet. What toys can you offer him to give him something to do?

Your pet needs plenty of different play items to choose from to stay entertained. If you choose items that are too similar, there is a good chance that one will see a lot of use and the other won’t. Try to vary how the toys are used, where they are placed within the cage, and their visual appeal. Consider how your pet likes to play, and offer options that will appeal to him. You can also consider having a few extra toys to rotate into his cage every so often so they stay new and interesting. For more information, please contact your local Cameron Park, CA vet clinic.

Your rabbit is a big part of your life, and she relies on you to care for her day in and day out.

Your gerbil needs you to create a comfortable place for him to call home, and you are ready and willing to do so. You know that he will need ample room to move about within his enclosure, and have a good idea of what it will need to contain, but the enclosure itself is still in question. Should you get your pet a glass tank or a wire cage?

Most people who opt for a glass tank do so because it contains their pet’s messes a bit better. However, it doesn’t really give your pet a chance to get out of the mess herself. These don’t allow for great airflow, and can leave your pet to breath in stale air or worse, the scent of their soiled bedding material. If you want your pet to be comfortable, consider this and talk with her veterinarian about your options. Your local Lansing, MI vet clinic can offer additional advice. To find out more, you can visit their ... Read more »
