Yearly Health Checks

Posted
Jasper, our clinic cat.

Your pet’s yearly health checks are an essential part of caring for your pet’s well being because our pets age so much more quickly than we do. On average there are about 7 dog years to every human year (although that can change depending on a dog’s size).

Each year we recommend coming in for a check up to ensure that your pet is in peak physical condition.

These yearly check ups usually involve:

  • A discussion about vaccinations and preventative health
  • Heart & lung checks
  • Dental checks
  • Eye examinations
  • Ear examinations
  • Coat and skin checks
  • Joint examinations
  • Routine blood and urine tests if indicated

As your pet gets older, we start to recommend yearly urine and blood tests.
