February: Dental Month

It's February already! I don't know about you, but I am ready for spring, and so is our dog. Speaking of dogs, we are closed Feb 16th for the Family Day holiday, so plan accordingly, as the store will be closed. Also, I've (along with my friend Melissa) are working on an event that will hopefully be held in Innisfil this May. We will keep you updated, and if anyone wants to be a vendor, please reach out to: puppaloozamarket@gmail.com

Happy Valentine's Day

Dental Month

Does your pet have stinky breath?

Offering raw meaty bones can help with mental and physical exercise and are an all-natural way to clean your pet’s teeth. Just 2–3 bones a week can have a positive effect on dental health. Always supervise your pet and choose the appropriate sized chew for your dog!

Benefits of removing buildup on your pet’s teeth with raw meaty bones

• Mechanical chewing action helps remove plaque and slow tartar buildup

• Stimulates gums, supporting healthier gum tissue and circulation

• Reduces oral bacteria, which contribute to plaque and bad breath

• Promotes saliva production, aiding natural mouth cleansing

• Supports long-term dental health through regular, appropriate chewing

All Big Country Raw bones are $3.00 off all February long!

Did you know that maintaining your dog’s dental health is also important for their overall health? Poor dental health can affect their heart and cause pain. If you don’t want to feed raw meaty bones, there are alternatives:

• Brushing your dog’s teeth

• Offering other safe chews to gnaw on

• Visual inspections for tartar buildup, and red, inflamed or bleeding gums

• Speaking with your vet during regular check-ups

  
  

To finish off the month, if you don’t follow us on social media, that’s okay. However, we posted about winning the Canadian Choice Award for pet shops in Innisfil! Thank you, everyone, for all the love and support. We are truly proud.
