Physical Examinations are a very important part the assessment of your pet's health care. Wellness exams are recommended at least once yearly on young animals, while older pets need to be examined twice a year. As your pet ages disease conditions occur more commonly. Early detection of health concern allows our veterinarians to more effectively help your pet.
Examinations are not only used to "physically" examine your pet's general health but they also allow us to collect important information that aids us in the overall assessment of your pet's health. Each pet is treated as an individual so that the doctors can suggest the appropriate treatments to best serve your pets needs.
During examinations we also discuss Heartworm Disease, Flea Control and Intestinal Parasite prevention all of which are very important to your pets overall health.
Nutrition is very important to the lifelong well being of your pets. Our doctors and staff will present nutritional alternatives and recommend changes as you pet ages.
Proper Dental Health could be one of the most important things you can do to prolong the life of your pet. Many pets show signs of dental disease as early as six months of age. Hunting Ridge Animal Hospital can help you with a lifelong dental plan for your pet.
Behavioral Counseling can help you and your pet work through frustrating behavior. We can help with things like separation anxiety and inappropriate elimination.
