Compared to their younger counterparts, older animals are more prone to arthritis, heart disease, cancer, and other health issues. The precise age at which a pet turns senior varies depending on a number of factors, but on average, they are regarded as “seniors” after they are around seven years old. Our veterinarians have experience caring for senior cats and dogs and can provide services from life-saving pet surgeries to advice on exercise for your senior pet. If your pet may be reaching their final golden years, we can also provide
pet hospice to help you keep your beloved companion comfortable.
Senior Pet Check-UpsOlder pets require periodic senior pet blood panels and wellness check-ups twice a year to track their health. It might be difficult to tell if a dog or cat is ill or aging normally, so regular senior pet health examinations are essential. After all, you want to spend as much time as possible with your cherished pet. Older cats and dogs also tend to slow down, so adjusting their diet is essential. If you don’t change your furry friend’s diet as they age, obesity and other issues become more likely. We offer
nutritional counseling to make sure your older pet is getting the healthy pet food that they need.
