In this podcast: Dr. Derine Winning joins It Takes Two with Amy and JJ to answer listeners pet questions – and we’ve got a lot of them!
Just a few of the topics in this episode:
Dental Cleanings
Dr. Derine Winning talks about the importance of dental cleaning, oral pain and bad breath. Veterinarians use a 0-4 grading system for cats and dogs mouths, Dr. Winning explains.
Trimming Nails
This might be one of the most overlooked pet care tasks. Dr. Winning recommends a dremel tool (from a local hardware store). She says a dremel is safe and what most owners are using at dog shows and, for the owner, can take some of the anxiety out of this pet car task.
Melatonin for dogs?
Yes, melatonin is safe for dogs. But, remember to ask your vet for the recommended amount.
Summer Q’s: Sunscreen for dogs, cleaning ears, hot weather and more!
Yes, you can buy dog-safe sunscreen (especially for their noses). Remember to look for zinc-free!
