We love seeing relationships develop between "siblings". We think Bodhi (black/tan) is appreciative of his new "sister" playmate Cali!

I believe Marley (on our left) has accepted her new "little" sister Penny. They snuggle on the couch, in their crate, on dad's lap, everywhere! Too sweet.

We could not agree more with this. We have been hosting Dazzling Canines, more specifically Tara, for almost 3 years. She is incredibly skilled, patient, calm, knowledgeable and gentle with our patients. We are fortunate to have her visit us once a month to offer her services to our patients. For more information, call us 301-593-3749.
I'm thrilled to introduce Tara McElhinney, veterinary technician, animal aromatherapist, canine dental care specialist, and truly one of the most compassionate animal professionals I know.
Tara has worked with animals for over a decade, blending her experience as a veterinary technician with holistic tools like essential oils, Reiki, and fear-free handling to bring comfort and healing to anxious dogs and those needing dental care. And her results speak for themselves… just wait until you hear her story about Bella the rescue Chihuahua.
In this interview, she shares how essential oils helped transform Bella from an aggressive, fearful pup into a loving, snuggly companion and how oils like Lavender, Vetiver, Peace, and Copaiba help her calm even the most anxious dogs during dental cleanings.
