More Than Stinky Breath: The importance of oral hygiene for our furry friends

We know, we know – The idea of getting your furry BFF to sit still and let you put your fingers in their mouth? It’s the last thing any of us want to do at the end of the day.

It’s a common misconception that stinky breath is a part of pet ownership. And while a professional teeth cleaning at the vet is important, there are also steps we can do at home to help our pet’s oral health.

In the first episode of Banfield Pet Hospital’s new podcast, Not Just Fluff, our host, Hannah Shaw, AKA Kitten Lady, sits down with Dr. Kate Hilsenteger, Area Chief of Staff at Banfield Pet Hospital, and passionate advocate for oral hygiene.

The pair discuss why preventive oral care is so important, and how you can incorporate it into your furry friend’s routine. You’ll also learn about some common signs that may point to oral pain, and how to approach oral hygiene with your pet.

We hope you enjoy Not Just Fluff! If you find these conversations helpful, we want to hear from you! Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts, and let us know what you liked about the show.
