From
puppies and kittens to geriatric patients, preventive care is the best way to
ensure a healthy, happy pet!
To keep your pet an active part of your
family for years to come, we stress the importance of preventive health care.
You can do your part by keeping your pet current with our recommendations for
routine physical examinations, booster vaccinations, and tests for intestinal
parasites. We consider regular heartworm tests and year-round heartworm
preventative a necessity for dogs in our area.
As a part of preventive health care, we
strongly recommend spaying and neutering for any animals not being used for
breeding. Early spaying and neutering will significantly reduce the chances your
pet has of developing mammary tumors, uterine infections, prostate disease, or
testicular cancer. Additionally, preventive health care could help keep
otherwise minor problems from becoming dangerous to your pet and costly to you.
Dogs and cats require dental examinations
and teeth cleaning just as we do. Our preventive dental services include
cleaning, polishing, tooth extraction, and oral surgery.
