Get to know your vet!

All pets are complex creatures that require nourishing diets and clean environments to maintain good health. But sometimes, no matter how well monitored their environment, an animal will require vaccinations, medical procedures, or diagnosis and treatment of disease. This is why it's important to have a good relationship with your veterinarian.

By developing a long term relationship with your veterinarian they can become familiar with your animal and diagnose potential problems early, when treatement is often easier and less expensive.

We believe in a semiannual checkup routine for everyone's pet. The first visit is for your pet's annual health protecting vaccination plus your veterinarian will perform a physical examination. The second visit will check your pets blood work and test for heart worm. Over the years, a full medical record will be developed for your pet. This record is important for identifying a pattern of development or change.

Then, if your pet is injured or becomes ill, your family veterinarian will know the animal's history and be able to treat it with more personalized care.
