Dental CareDespite what many pet owners may believe, bad breath is not just a nuisance – it’s a sign of an unhealthy mouth. Bad breath is caused by bacteria. Over time, bacteria leads to plaque and tartar buildup on your pet’s teeth. The result is bad breath, reddened gums, and other common signs of dental disease.

Dr. Vekman and her staff are absolutely amazing! They took the best care of my little boy, Brennen. When he was diagnosed with aggressive lymphoma at 11 months old, obviously I was completely devastated. But Dr. Vekman was there for me and him every step of the way. She and her staff never treated us like we were just another case, but more like family. Dr. Vekman and her crew comforted me in my time of grief when I had to say goodbye to my boy and for that I’m forever grateful!Heather lepe
