✨Good oral health isn’t magic—it’s a dental cleaning.✨

Dental disease is one of the most common (and preventable) conditions we see in pets. A professional dental cleaning helps remove plaque and tartar below the gumline, protect the gums, and prevent pain and infection.

Healthy teeth and gums support your pet’s overall health and help keep them comfortable for years to come 🦷🐾
If it’s been a while since your pet’s mouth was checked, we’re happy to help—call us to schedule a dental exam today.

Building trust with our patients is one of the most important parts of veterinary care. A calm, positive experience helps reduce fear and makes each visit smoother — for pets and people alike. That’s why you’ll often see us offering gentle handling, soft voices, and plenty of treats. It’s not just kindness — it’s good medicine. 🐾💛

🚨 We’re seeing a rise in kennel cough cases in our area! 🚨

Kennel cough is a highly contagious respiratory illness that spreads quickly anywhere dogs gather—like boarding facilities, dog parks, and groomers.

✅ Make sure your pet is up to date on their Bordetella vaccination to help protect them.
📞 If your dog develops a cough after being around other pets, please give us a call—we’re here to help!

🐾 Keeping your pets safe and healthy is always our priority.

Our next Pet Food Bank day will be held on September 27th from 12:30 - 2:00 PM at the Grand Rapids Pit Bull Alliance Pet Support Center in Kentwood.

If you need pet food / supply assistance or need to talk with us about other resources for your pets please join us for our September Pet Food Bank.

Families may only attend one GRPBA pet food distribution per month.

• Distribution Information:
Families who attend will receive pet food while supplies last. For continued pet assistance and to attend the GRPBA Pet Food Bank monthly, an application will be provided to be completed and brought back the following month (October), which will also include providing proof of pets' spay and neuter and financial hardship (this can also be a discussion if this is a short-term need).

If pets are not currently spayed and neutered, not a problem - we can get them signed up for one of our upcoming BISSELL Pet Foundation Fix the Future Spay and Neuter clinic dates! 🐾

• Pet Assistance Eligibility:
Pet assistance is for families with companion pets. This is not for individuals fostering for other rescue organizations or individuals doing independent rescue, breeders, or for those who intend to breed or stud out their pets.
Our pet food bank is specifically intended for families with pets who are facing hardships.

• Distribution Protocol:
Please remain in your car and follow instructions from volunteers in the parking lot.

• Donations:
Pet supply donations can also be dropped off during this event, Adult Cat Kibble is our greatest need 🐈
