Nurture Longer Lives With Regular Pet Exams
When you bring your cat or dog in for regular wellness care, you help them live longer and healthier. Pet exams performed yearly nurture growth and provide quality healthcare through every life stage. Since wellness care helps prevent larger medical issues, it also helps prevent more costly treatments. Some ways we provide pets in Hermitage and surrounding areas with wellness care:
- We offer six-month protection from heartworm disease with one simple injection.
- Nutritional counseling and prescription diets keep your pet active through youth and senior years.
- Digital X-rays, laboratory testing, and ultrasonography are at our disposal to uncover underlying issues.
Puppy and Kitten Care
Since their bodies are still developing, puppies and kittens can be the most susceptible to viruses and bacteria. This makes it that much more important to bring a new pet in for a wellness exam during their first few months of life. We’ll keep your pet’s health on the right track with a complete exam, needed vaccinations, and testing. Some things to note about your puppy’s or kitten’s wellness visit:
- Bring a fresh stool sample to their first visit, so we can test for any intestinal parasites
- Worms are common in both kittens and puppies, and we’ll prescribe medication to eliminate these parasites.
- Once your puppy or kitten receives their first round of vaccines, we’ll schedule a booster series to further strengthen their immunities.
Please contact us for more information about wellness care for your puppy or kitten, or adult pet. We’re here to help you provide quality veterinary care for your animal companion.
Keeping Them Healthy From The Start
When we work together to prevent medical issues in the first place, pets live longer and healthier. We believe strongly in prevention at our animal hospital, and some of the ways we show it:
- At examinations we will discuss which vaccinations are needed to keep your pet up-to-date and free from dangerous diseases.
- We help prevent gum disease with dental cleanings and education about at-home oral pet care.
- We offer six-month to year long heart-worm prevention to make it easier to keep your pet heart-worm free.
We invite the pets and people of Hermitage and all surrounding areas to experience our veterinary practice. Contact us for an appointment today!
