Services
Preventative Vaccinations
Our vaccination programs protect pets against life-threatening diseases through tailored schedules. We administer core vaccines for dogs (distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus) and cats (panleukopenia, herpesvirus) while emphasizing annual boosters. Pre-vaccination health checks ensure safety, with triennial protocols for select vaccines. Education focuses on community disease prevention and boarding requirements.
Pet Desexing
We perform spaying and neutering surgeries using modern anesthetic protocols. Services include pre-operative assessments, surgical procedures, and comprehensive post-operative care. Benefits highlighted include population control, reduced cancer risks, and behavioral improvements. Individualized timing recommendations consider breed and health factors, with follow-up appointments ensuring proper recovery.
Dental Care
Our dental services range from routine cleanings to complex oral surgeries. Digital imaging and ultrasonic scaling address periodontal disease while extractions resolve severe dental issues. Preventative education covers home care techniques and diet modifications. Early intervention prevents systemic complications affecting heart and kidney health in pets.
Parasite Control
Customized parasite management plans protect against fleas, ticks, heartworm, and intestinal worms. We recommend Bravecto for 3-month flea protection in dogs and Advocate for cats. Treatment schedules consider age-specific risks, with puppies/kittens receiving frequent deworming. Education emphasizes environmental control and seasonal prevention strategies.
Puppy Pre-School
Structured socialization programs for 8-18 week old puppies develop positive behaviors through play and basic training. Sessions at our sister clinic focus on obedience, bite inhibition, and social skills. Owners learn reward-based training techniques while addressing common behavioral concerns in a supportive environment.
