We would also like to introduce you to Vectra 3D for fleas and ticks in dogs and fleas in cats. Vectra 3D has a quicker kill time for both fleas and ticks (it only protects against fleas in cats) which means a much lower risk of any disease transmission for diseases such as Lymes, Anaplasma, Erlichia and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. It protects against 6 types of ticks which are endemic to our area instead of only 4 like Frontline Plus. Vectra is perfect for dogs that spend a lot of time outdoor because it is more stable in the presence of sunlight. It is very safe to use. If you do have a household with cats and dogs, the manufacture does recommend keeping the cat away from the dog until the product has had time to dry.

So next time you are in ask us if either Interceptor or Sentinel coupled with Vectra 3D is right for your pet!!!

Ask us about our Class IV Laser!!!

In December 2011 we added a Class IV Therapy Laser to our tools to aid in:

    -Pain Relief

-Wound Healing

-Arthritis

-Cystitis

    -Otitis

-Intervertebral Disc Disease

-Pyotraumatic Dermatitis (skin infections/hot spots)

-Degenerative Joint Disease

-Lick Granulomas

-Degloving Injuries

-Periodontal Disease

-Gingivitis

The therapy laser can help ease pain from arthritis while improving mobility without the use of medication or surgery, and allows your pet to heal faster following surgery or injury. This FDA-approved laser uses deep-penetrating light waves to stimulate the release of endorphins to ease pain. The light also increases circulation thereby decreasing inflammation both post-operatively and for arthritis. We can finally improve your pet’s quality of life without the need for oral medications.
