I had a client once who thought a good dental care routine for their dog was to just let them chew on bones. After explaining that plaque can build up faster than they think, they joked that maybe they should just invest in a doggy toothbrush. It’s funny, but it really highlights how important proper dental care is. Anyone else have amusing stories like this? They certainly keep our days interesting.
I landed my internship through a local Facebook group focused on veterinary jobs. It was a game changer! Have you tried reaching out on social media?
It’s wild how people think bones are a magic fix for dental issues! Just like us, dogs need a bit more than a good chew to keep their smiles sparkling. @j_price68, have you ever shown a client doggy toothpaste? It can be a real game changer.
I totally get where you’re coming from. I’ve had clients who thought giving their dogs rawhide was enough, but it can get stuck in their teeth! Regular check-ups can make a huge difference, especially for those who think dental care isn’t a priority.
I’ve seen some clients use dog-safe dental wipes after chewing sessions, and it really helps minimize plaque build-up without the fuss of a toothbrush. It’s a simple step that can make a big difference; have you found any easy dental care tricks that work for your clients?
