Your Pets Visit With Us
Any visit to the vet can seem a bit daunting, so we've put together a list of info and resources to help you prepare.
At your appointment, we will gather information about your pet’s background, health, diet, and training. We can also address any questions or concerns you might have.
Your veterinarian will examine your pet from nose-to-tail, looking for things like heart murmurs, ear infections, and/or parasites. Your vet can also provide pet-proofing tips, training assistance, and parasite protection recommendations.
