Ignoring the condition of your pet's mouth can lead to periodontal disease, tooth loss and other serious health problems, such as heart, liver and kidney failure.
While you should NEVER brush your dog's teeth with toothpaste made for people (it may upset your pet's stomach - or worse), it is important their teeth get brushed, to help prevent tartar buildup and plaque. While it may be a bit awkward at first, we'll help you get started on the road towards good dental health for your pet.

Spay or Neuter Surgery is a very important decision for every pet owner.
Between 3 and 4 million pets are euthanized at animal shelters across the United States each year, many of which could have been avoided if more owners spayed or neutered their pets.
We offer low cost spay and neuter surgeries for our patients to help reduce the number of unwanted pets in our local shelters. The out-patient procedure is much like an actual surgery for humans; your dog is given anesthesia so they will sleep through the surgery, and all vital signs are monitored continually during the procedure. All of our surgical equipment is sterilized before each surgery and the doctor 'scrubs' up just like at the hospital, to eliminate any chance of outside infection.
After surgery, we will monitor their recovery and treat any post-surgery issues, if necessary. We'll call you once the procedure is completed to let you know everything is ok, and explain what you'll need to do when you bring your pet home.
Living in Florida, it's only a matter of time before the pet you love is exposed to fleas. And once they get on your pet, they'll most certainly get in your house, bringing with them other potentially harmful diseases.
Fortunately, advances in parasite control medication can help prevent fleas and heartworms from attacking your pet. The cost of treatment is low, application is easy and will help ensure your pet's wellness for several weeks at a time.
We can even have the flea prevention medication shipped directly to your home when you use our online forms. How's that for convenience!
Young dogs are susceptible to a great many diseases, which is why it's vitally important to make sure they receive their routine vaccinations as protection against these preventable illnesses.
We recommend initial vaccinations for puppies starting around 6-8 weeks, continuing vaccinations monthly until they are 16 weeks old. Adult canines typically only need vaccinations on an annual basis after that.
Our dog vaccinations protect against:
- Leptospirosis
- Hepatitis
- Lyme Disease
- Parvovirus
- Coronavirus
- Giardia
- Infectious Tracheobronchitis
- Rabies
- Distemper
