Wellness Exams

Regular Checkups & Wellness Exams

At The Vets Animal Hospital, we believe that regular checkups and wellness exams are critical to your pet’s well-being. These wellness exams give us a chance to evaluate the overall health of your pet while also giving us a baseline for their own unique bodies and tendencies.
Not only do these exams keep us up to date with your pet’s health, they also allow us to detect potential problems before they become serious ones. Your pet will be thoroughly examined by a veterinarian and this checkup gives us vital information to help keep your pet healthy.
Regular wellness exams also make your pet more familiar with our veterinary hospital, and makes future visits easier on them and you. Please contact us today if you have any questions or would like to learn more about how we care for your pet.

MICROCHIPPING

At The Vets Animal Hospital, we are happy to offer microchipping. Every year, thousands and thousands of pets go missing. Not knowing where your pet is or how to bring them back can be a helpless, hopeless feeling. It’s a tragedy that happens all too often.
But there is a simple, safe, and effective way that ensures pet identifications and assists with their return when lost. Microchipping is a standard procedure that implants a tiny chip underneath your pet’s skin. It is a painless and relatively fast procedure, and is completely safe.
This microchip is registered with your pet’s vital information, and can be scanned by any veterinarian or animal shelter so that they can return your pet directly to you.  It is important to always keep the information attached to your pets microchip updated in the database for pets to be able to be returned to the correct location.
Save yourself the heartache and stress of a lost pet. Microchips bring pets home.

PARASITE PREVENTION

The idea of your pet being infested with parasites is a disturbing thought, but it’s also a medical issue that can have serious consequences if not dealt with or prevented properly. Parasites pose a variety of health issues for our pets, who can be very susceptible to certain parasites depending on age, region, and other factors.
At The Vets Animal Hospital, we emphasize the importance of preventing parasites. Through the use of preventatives, you can successfully protect your pet. But pets that are not protected often develop parasites, which leads to serious problems for them and their owners.
The cost of prevention is minimal compared to the cost of treatment, which can be expensive and stressful on your pet. Parasites like heartworm can even become serious enough to be fatal, so preventing parasites is of the utmost importance.
