Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress the importance of an physical examination at least every year. Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems. We offer a wide range of veterinary services to keep your companions feeling their best:

 

Diagnostic Services:  Our hospital is equipped to perform diagnostic services such as on site bloodwork, fecal exams, and radiology services to care for your pets' complete health care needs.  
      
Surgical Services:  We offer laser surgery in addition to traditional surgical methods. Laser surgery allows for a more comfortable pet with decreased bleeding and recovery time. 
   
Anesthesia:  We utilize the safest available anesthetics to provide an extra margin of safety, especially for our older or high-risk patients. Using the most modern equipment, the patient's vital signs are monitored during all anesthetic procedures. We perform preanesthetic blood testing to help minimize anesthetic risk, and also have our patients on IV fluids during most procedures.
    
Consults: We may send referrals to a specialist who performs advanced diagnostic procedures to help us with the diagnosis of more complicated cases.
   
Radiology Services:  Our on-site, modern X-ray equipment provides high quality radiographs to aid in the diagnosis of many disorders.
   
Dentistry:  Our dental services include teeth cleaning and polishing, tooth extractions and minor oral surgery. Oral care is important in maintaining your pets health. Ask us why!
   
Laboratory:  Our in-house laboratory facilities provide for serum chemistry, hematology, serology, urinalysis and parasite testing. We also utilize commercial veterinary laboratories for specialized diagnostics and consultations.
    
Permanent identification: We recommend microchip identification for all pets. This is a simple injection that can be done at any time, and may save your pets life someday.
    
Pharmacy:  We maintain a complete inventory of pharmaceuticals, vitamins, shampoos, flea and tick control products and heartworm preventatives to meet the needs of your pet. We also carry a full line of prescription diets.
   
Individualized Flea Control Programs:  We develop programs for the specific needs of your pet and your own particular environmental situation. We will review with you the best ways to control fleas in your house, in your yard and on your pet.

Dietary Counseling:  We will provide guidance regarding your pet's nutritional needs for each life stage, including dietary requirements for growth, weight maintenance and performance.
    
Behavioral Counseling:  We can provide advice regarding the correction of problems such as excessive barking, chewing, spraying, scratching, digging, house soiling and aggression.

Boarding:  We provide pet boarding as a service to our clients. All boarders receive personal attention from our caring staff. Pets may be dropped off and picked up during regular business hours Monday through Friday, and by special arrangements on the weekends.

Grooming:  We offer professional grooming Monday thru Saturday. Routine and therapeutic bathing services are also available.

Emergency Care:  Please call our main telephone number for instructions for after-hour emergencies.
