Exploring Pet Dental Health

As humans, we know why it’s important to take care of our teeth and we take steps to keep them healthy. But oftentimes we don’t do the same for our pets. On this episode, we’ll hear from Jae and Adrienne, AKA the Two Crazy Cat Ladies, about the lessons they learned the hard way about their pets’ dental health. And then Dr. Todd McCoy, a board certified veterinary dentist and oral surgeon, explains everything we need to know about what’s going on in our pets’ mouths and what we can do to keep them healthy.
