We offer a full range of vaccines for Dogs and Cats of all ages. Vaccines protect your pet from potentially deadly diseases. We recommend talking to one of our veterinarians about what vaccines your pet needs. Some vaccines, such as rabies, are recommended for all pets, while other vaccines are species specific or based on your pet’s exposure level to the disease prevented by that particular vaccine.

Keeping your pet free of heartworms is important for their health as well. Heartworms are a potentially fatal parasite transmitted by mosquitoes that primarily infects dogs and cats. However, Heartworm infection is preventable in dogs and cats.

For Dogs we recommend Proheart 6, which is an injectable heartworm prevention that is administered by your veterinarian to your pet twice a year to prevent heartworms.

For cats we recommend Bravecto Plus. Bravecto Plus is a topical applied directly on the skin between the shoulder blades. It prevents against heartworms, fleas, and ticks for 8 weeks.

We have a new non-invasive way to treat your small or large animal. In late 2011 we added a therapy laser to our hospital. The therapy laser works to increase blood flow and decrease inflammation in the affected area. It has proven to be successful in many of our patients with Osteoarthritis. The therapy laser can be used to treat many issues ranging from arthritis to ear infections and even speed healing time on wounds.

Our boarding facilities are designed to make your pet’s time away from home as comfortable as possible. For the larger pets, we offer nice size indoor runs.

Regular professional dental cleaning is important to maintaining your pet’s teeth. We use modern and safe ultrasound to clean each tooth thoroughly – above and below the gum line. Dental technicians polish teeth to create a smooth, lustrous tooth surface more resistant to plaque build-up.

Spaying your pet has many benefits. The procedure, which prevents female animals from becoming pregnant and reproducing, can help your dog or cat live a longer, healthier life. Spaying will notchange your pet’s personality.

By spaying your female pet, you’re protecting her against potentially deadly diseases, including bacterial infections, reproductive tract diseases, and several types of cancer. You also won’t have to worry about her going into heat. This means avoiding the mess that often accompanies the heat cycle in female dogs and the pacing and crying that happens with female cats. In addition, spaying your pet will help control the dog and cat overpopulation problem, keeping more animals out of shelters.
