Wellness

1 dog year is about 7 human years, so your dog is considered a senior at only 7 years of age. Once they have reached this time in their lives, it’s time for us to provide some additional care. Early disease detection and treatment can help us extend and improve the quality of your dog and cat’s life. We would like your pet to benefit from a Senior Wellness Screening:

  • Physical Exam and Consultation with doctor
  • Urinalysis
  • Thyroid Function Test
  • Blood Pressure
  • Body Mass Assessment
  • Biochemical Profile
  • Complete Blood Count
  • Heartworm Test
  • Intraocular Pressure
  • Fecal Exam
  • Nutritional Consultation
  • Digital Chest or Abdominal X-rays
  • Summary letter of findings

These screening tests can detect early heart disease, diabetes, liver, and kidney disease as well as thyroid and other endocrine diseases that are common as pets get older.

Abnormal or suspicious results during screening may indicate a need for additional tests such as:

  • Ultrasound of Abdomen
  • Echocardiogram
  • Electrocardiogram
  • Specialized blood tests
