Wellness Care for Your Pet
Wellness care is crucial for your pet throughout its life, whether it's a puppy or an elderly animal. Puppy and kittens require regular examinations to check for growth and strengthen their immunity against common diseases.
Insurance plans for pets typically offer pet wellness coverage as an additional benefit. Wellness coverage for pets is different from pet insurance on a variety of levels.
Vaccinations
Vaccines are among the most significant advances in medicine. They are believed to be responsible for saving more lives than all other medical treatments. They protect against diseases that would otherwise be fatal or cause long-term and severe suffering, pain, or death. In most instances, prevention is more efficient and less costly than treatment.
Immunizations are a very important aspect of pet wellness and can help prevent serious illnesses that affect cats and dogs as well as humans. Vaccines contain microorganisms that have been killed or altered and are administered to the body in order to stimulate the immune response. This way the immune system is able to recognize and fight the disease-causing organism, without needing to suffer the more serious consequences of illness or infection.
Puppy and kittens need a full regimen of vaccines during their initial stages of development to strengthen their defense against infectious diseases. Our veterinarian will advise the appropriate vaccinations for your pet based on their age and lifestyle.
The most important vaccines are rabies, distemper and parvovirus. They are considered essential for all dogs and cats, as they protect them from dangerous infections that can be transmitted to people. The most important vaccines are administered in two injections at the age of a kitten or puppy and then boosters each year.
Other vaccinations are possible according to the risk factors and lifestyle. For instance, dogs that go to groomers, boarding kennels, training classes, and dog parks could require vaccination against bordetella (kennel cough) which is highly transmissible, as well as leptospirosis an zoonotic disease that could cause liver and kidney failure in humans as well as pets.
All pets are usually recommended to get the hepatitis A vaccine and hepatitis B and C. They can help stop a variety of deadly diseases that could be transmitted from animals to humans and vice versa. A combination vaccine, also known as a DA2PP or FVRCP for cats and canines respectively, guards against the most common infections that can be passed between the two species. The lyme vaccine, recommended for dogs who travel in areas where there are many deer, protects them from bites from the deer tick, also referred to as the illegitimately called deer tick, that can cause a serious bacterial infection.
Fecal Exam
A fecal examination is also referred to as a flotation fecal is a microscopic exam of your pet's stool. This gives your veterinarian the chance to detect intestinal parasites like hookworms, roundworms, whipworms and giardia, which are difficult to identify and can compromise the health of your pet. They can infect family members and other pets.
There are many ways to collect the fecal sample. Your doctor may use an specialized fecal loop which is inserted into the rectum and pulled back for an fecal sample. This method is especially useful in identifying worms and cysts. Your veterinarian can also conduct an immediate smear, which involves dispersing a small amount your pet's feces on the microscope slide. The disadvantage of this type of test is that it's only valid in the event that the feces sample has not been mixed with fat or other cellular material.
A centrifugal flotation test is a different method. This test the fecal specimen for parasite eggs by mixing it with a particular solution. This causes the eggs to appear to float and are visible under a microscope. The advantage of this method is that it is more sensitive than a direct smear, however, the results are still dependent on the details of the procedure as well as characteristics of the specimen.
Regular fecal checks are the best way to make sure that your pet doesn't have an intestinal parasite infection that can affect their health and may be spread to other pets or family members. These infections can be uncomfortable for your pet and can result in more serious illnesses that require treatment. Some intestinal parasites, like hookworms and roundworms can be transferred to humans. This poses a serious health threat.
It is essential to include fecal testing in your pet's routine for well-being. All pets should have a fecal testing at least once per year. This is especially important for puppies and animals living in an environment that is prone to parasites. Intestinal parasites are the primary cause of illness for pets and can cause diarrhea and weight loss as well as vomiting. Fecal tests can identify parasites, as well as blood or other abnormalities which could be signs of disease or infection.
Dental Exam
Dental health of your pet is an essential aspect of health care. If you don't take care of your oral health, pet teeth can get infected, which can lead to other health issues like tooth decay, bad breath, and even gum disease. The conditions start when tartar forms on the teeth, affecting the surrounding tissues. The buildup may also travel through the bloodstream to other organs such as kidneys, the heart, and liver. This can cause inflammation and increase the risk of contracting serious illnesses. Regular dental cleanings and brushing can help keep your pet's teeth clean.
During a dental examination our veterinarian will look over your pet's teeth to look for indications of plaque and tartar. The veterinarian will use an instrument for scaling to eliminate the tartar, and an instrument to look for pockets in the gumline where periodontal diseases begin. X-rays of the entire mouth are taken to look at the bones and roots of the teeth.
Patients with a high risk of developing dental diseases or who are getting older, should have a dental exam at least once a year. The vet will also discuss with you your pet's weight, diet and behavior. The vet can provide you with information on any changes that you may observe in your pet. They may suggest additional tests or treatments if required.
Wellness plans can be a great way to save money and cover preventive procedures, like dental cleanings and heartworm tests. These plans are similar in nature to traditional pet insurance but they pay for 836614 pre-determined medical expenses instead of paying for the entire visit. Our veterinarians are more than pleased to discuss the various plans and options with you.

Parasite Control
No matter if they are of the external or internal type, parasites are living organisms that feed on your pet, robbing her of essential nutrients. They can also cause serious damage to her organs and systems, which can lead to a myriad of unpleasant symptoms. In extreme cases (such as heartworms) there are instances where these parasites can be fatal. Although many believe that parasites are a normal part of being a pet's parent however this doesn't need to be the case. Our vet team is aware of the types of parasites that are prevalent in your region and can explain how they affect your pet.
Responsible pet parasite control can significantly reduce the risk of transmission of disease to other pets in the household and also to humans. This includes administering preventative flea-and-tick treatment throughout the year, using collars to keep ticks out and grooming your dog often, especially after she's been outdoors. Examining your pet's coat for indications of a parasite infestation, such as scratching, chewing and licking, will aid in ensuring she is free from these nuisance pests.
Internal parasites, like whipworms and roundworms as well as tapeworms, are usually acquired by accidentally ingesting microscopic parasite eggs from areas that have been contaminated by the faeces from infected animals. These parasites are also considered zoonotic. This means that they can be transmitted from pets to humans (and 836614 in reverse).
Ectoparasites like ticks and fleas are most likely to be present in urban areas with large number of pets, however they can be found in homes in all locations. The fleas can trigger severe allergic reactions in pets, as well as transmit vector-borne diseases such as cat scratch disease (Bartonella), Lyme disease, Ehrlichia, 836614 and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Ticks can also be a problem. They can trigger allergic reactions, cause itching, cause pain in pets, and transmit vector-borne diseases like Lyme disease to humans.
All shelter pets should be treated with a basic internal-external parasite control plan at the time they first arrive to the shelter. This should include prophylactic treatment with a minimum of an oral dewormer that works against hookworms and roundworms as well as an insecticide and tick preventative (Nemex and Strongid are the most commonly used products).
