Senior Wellness

senior wellnessAs a clinic we have had an emphasis on senior wellness for the past 10 years. Over 40% of the pets in our practice are over 7 years of age.  We strongly believe that wellness screening, weight control and the many medications that are available for older pets have maximized the life of many of our clients’ pets.  Your pet deserves only the best in care, but from age 7 on up, great care is the most important. The following problems can develop that require expert diagnosis and treatment.

• Pets over their Ideal Weight
• Osteoarthritis
• Hormonal disorders (Hypothyroidism & Cushing’s Disease in dogs, Hyperthyroidism cats)
• Dental problems
• Behavioral issues
• Eye problems (cataracts, glaucoma)
• Cognitive disorders
