Dogs

Dogs bring loyalty, joy, and endless companionship—and they deserve care that supports them through every adventure. Our veterinary team provides preventive, personalized wellness care that can help your dog stay healthy, happy, and by your side for years to come.

what to expect

During a Dog Wellness Exam

Your dog’s wellness visit includes a comprehensive physical assessment and discussion about their lifestyle. Our goal is to keep your dog feeling their best and prevent future health issues.

A typical exam may include:

  • Skin and coat check for parasites, lumps, or irritation.
  • Eye, ear, nose, and mouth inspection for signs of infection or inflammation.
  • Listening to heart, lung, and internal organ function.
  • Joint, mobility, reflex, and neurological evaluation.
  • Blood testing for heartworm and overall health.
  • Deworming, if necessary.
  • Vaccinations and parasite prevention.

We also welcome any questions you have about your dog’s behavior, nutrition, or overall well-being.

Caring for Your Dog at Every Age

From playful puppies to graying seniors, your dog deserves dedicated care at every stage of life. Our wellness services are tailored to support their health, catch concerns early, and help them enjoy a comfortable, active, and enriching life.

puppy wellness

Starting Off Strong

The first few months of your puppy’s life are full of growth, learning, and exploration. Our puppy wellness care supports this critical development phase and helps your puppy build a healthy foundation for life.

During visits, we provide guidance on nutrition, training, and behavior, as well as socialization and enrichment strategies. Puppies also receive parasite testing and deworming, along with a customized vaccination schedule and general health screenings. Puppies are particularly vulnerable to parasites and preventable diseases, making timely vaccinations and parasite control essential—for both your puppy’s health and the safety of your household.

Adult dog wellness

Proactive, Preventive Care

As your puppy grows into adulthood, routine veterinary care remains crucial. Dogs are masters at hiding signs of illness, so annual wellness exams allow us to detect subtle changes early, before they become serious.

During an adult wellness visit, we perform a full nose-to-tail physical exam, evaluate weight, mobility, skin, coat, and dental health, update vaccines and parasite prevention, and run diagnostic screenings as needed. We also provide lifestyle guidance on diet, activity, and behavior. Regular checkups help us monitor for early signs of chronic

conditions such as arthritis, allergies, diabetes, or heart disease—conditions that are far easier to manage with early intervention.

senior dog wellness

Supporting Aging Companions

As dogs age, their healthcare needs change. Smaller breeds are typically considered seniors around seven years of age, while larger breeds may age sooner. During senior visits, we focus on detecting chronic conditions early, managing joint pain, kidney disease, or other age-related health issues, monitoring cognitive function, and tailoring nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle recommendations. Baseline diagnostic testing helps track changes over time, allowing us to customize care for your dog’s unique needs.

With proactive support, we aim to keep your senior dog comfortable, active, and thriving throughout their golden years.

Recommended Vaccines for Dogs

Vaccinations are an essential part of keeping your dog healthy. Based on your dog’s age, environment, travel, social exposure, and risk factors, we’ll create a vaccine schedule that keeps them safe and protected.

Below are some of the dog vaccines we offer:
