These adoptable pets could use your help … It's National Pet Dental Health Month! Feb. 14-15

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Pet Dental Health Month is celebrated in February. While it may not be the most exciting pet month, it is still one of the most significant. Why? Since animals have teeth, they need to be cared for!
They also require dental care, just like we do. Many dogs and cats suffer from dental illness, so brushing your pet at home and getting regular dental cleanings from a professional will help.
A healthy mouth can extend your pet’s life, according to studies. Before they turn three, 80% of dogs and 70% of cats will have a dental condition. Dental issues also affect areas other than the mouth. Dental disease can negatively impact the heart, kidneys, and other important organs. We prolong our pets’ health by regularly cleaning before serious issues surface.
