Pet Senior Care
The health of your pet can change rapidly as he/she ages, and changes can go unnoticed. Early intervention can lead to a longer and healthier life for your pet.
Pet Senior Care
Pets can develop diseases common to senior humans, such as diabetes, heart disease, endocrine disease, and cancer. These diseases may go unnoticed in their early stages; therefore, regular screenings can be very important. Early detection can help in disease prevention and can minimize suffering. The best approach is to begin senior care at 7 years of age and make sure they receive a physical health exam twice a year. Our doctors will evaluate the general health of your pet and monitor the physical effects of aging. We may recommend routine blood testing, urinalysis, hormone testing, electrocardiograph (ECG), and x-rays.
