Al brushing his teeth

 

 

 

 

I wanted to send you a picture of Al with his tooth brush.

Every morning, when I'm brushing my teeth, he sits on my bed and waits for me. Then, I brush his teeth. He loves the chicken flavored toothpaste I got from you!

After I've brushed his teeth, I let him have at it on his own while I floss.

We've got quite a routine, and he never lets me forget.

 Mom & pup doing well

A female Golden Retriever was in labour for 24 hours and had made no progress. The mom was weak and becoming hypothermic so Dr. Borgmann performed an emergency caesarian section. Happily, the mom survived. She wouldn't have made it if we didn't do the c-section.

The only pup, was green and needed several minutes to resuscitate it. Both mom and pup are doing fine now and the owners decided to keep the special little survivor.
