Dog & Cat Wellness

 

Wellness services at Toebeans & Tails Veterinary Hospital are designed to keep your pets healthy and happy throughout their lives. These services include:

Wellness exams allow our veterinarians to detect early signs of illness or discomfort, ensuring timely treatment and improving long-term health outcomes. Regular wellness visits help prevent common health issues, keep your pet active, and provide peace of mind that you are taking great care of your furry friend! 

In addition to a thorough physical exam, routine blood screening as part of your pet’s annual wellness exam helps Dr. Wilson learn more about your pet’s health in order to make the best treatment and prevention recommendations. 

Blood screening is extremely useful in the early detection of some common conditions such as diabetes, liver disease, kidney failure, and pancreatic issues. It can also help in the diagnosis and treatment of other health conditions including parasites and allergies. In most cases, we'll perform blood screening on your pet once yearly. Older pets or those with chronic conditions may benefit from more frequent blood screenings. 

If your pet is on certain long-term medications we'll routinely screen their blood to ensure that the medication is working at the existing dosage without causing any serious side effects. At the beginning of treatment or if your pet's health changes we may need to monitor things more closely.
