Our Services
Wellness Care
Regular health exams are key in detecting and preventing illnesses before they become life threatening. It is recommended that adult pets receive an annual examination, while senior pets be seen every six months. From new puppy to senior wellness examinations, your pet will receive a comprehensive physical examination. This combined with regular bloodwork provides a baseline of health that allows us to more accurately detect any changes in your pet.
We carry a wide range of vaccines and are able to work with you to prevent and control parasitic infections. Both veterinarians have extensive experience with vaccines and will work with you to determine the best course of action based on your pet's lifestyle and risk factors.
Dentistry, Surgical Procedures, Cold Laser Treatment
Your pet's oral hygiene is important in preventing infection, both orally and to its organs, tooth loss and discomfort. Routine care can add years of pain-free living. During the examination, your pet's mouth will be assessed for swelling, abscesses, excessive tartar and odor to determine whether a cleaning is needed.
As is the case for any surgical procedure, preliminary bloodwork is done to allow us to determine if there are any underlying issues that may interfere with anesthesia, followed by the administration of an individualized anesthetic protocol. We are fully equipped to scale and polish, take digital x-rays, retain them for future reference to monitor your pet's mouth in the future, and perform extractions. Your pet's vital signs are monitored throughout any procedure and pain is managed via a stepwise pre-surgical sedation followed by post-surgical medication, as well as Cold Laser Treatment, which aids in the reduction of inflammation and increased blood circulation.
We also offer an extra step towards protecting your pet, in the event you and your loved one should become separated. Micro-chipping is a permanent means of identification and is registered with a national database. We take care of the one time national pet recovery registration for you, which includes a full year of VIP membership. For more information please visit Home Again.
Counseling
Without the ability to speak, our pets often act out as a means of communicating that something is not right. Having a Certified Knowledge Assessed Pet Animal Trainer on staff allows us to identify and address behavioral issues that may be the result of a medical condition or general dissatisfaction.
Like the general human population, obesity has become a common problem among pets. We know how difficult it can be to resist those pleading eyes and give in to your pet's expanding waistline. However, maintaining a healthy active lifestyle is necessary for your pet's well-being.We are always more than happy to work with you in determining the best food and daily intake, as well as level of activity so that your pet can live a long and healthy life.
