What should I do if my pet is sick or injured outside of regular office hours?

 If your pet is experiencing a medical emergency after hours, contact your nearest emergency veterinary clinic immediately. Many areas have 24/7 emergency services specifically for pets.

Routine check-ups are important for maintaining your pet’s health. Generally, it’s recommended to bring your pet in for an exam at least once a year. For older pets or those with specific health issues, more frequent visits may be necessary.

The vaccinations your pet needs depend on their age, lifestyle, and health status. Common vaccines include those for rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and bordetella. Our veterinarians will recommend a vaccination schedule based on your pet’s specific needs.

 Regular use of flea and tick preventatives is crucial for your pet’s health. We offer various options, including topical treatments, oral medications, and collars. Our staff can help you choose the best option for your pet based on their lifestyle and risk factors.

 Behavioral issues can often be managed with the right approach. Start by discussing the problem with our veterinarians or a certified animal behaviorist. They can provide guidance and, if necessary, recommend training or behavioral modification techniques.

Pets can’t always tell us when they’re in pain, so it’s important to look for signs such as changes in appetite, difficulty moving, excessive vocalization, or unusual hiding. If you notice any of these signs or if you’re concerned about your pet’s comfort, contact us for an evaluation.
