Question: Should I microchip my pet?

Answer: We recommend microchipping all pets, because accidental separation could happen at any time, to any pet! In the absence of an intact collar with an ID tag, a microchip may be the only way to find a lost pet's family. Veterinary clinics, shelters, and pounds typically keep a microchip scanner available at all times. For dogs and cats, the chip is placed under the skin between the shoulder blades using a large bore needle. We can do this at any age, awake (in cooperative patients) or sedated (ex., at the time of spay/neuter or a dental cleaning). Keep in mind, microchips are for identification purposes only, not for GPS or tracking. Make sure to update your contact information with the microchip company immediately if you have any changes. If you have questions about microchipping or would like to schedule an appointment to microchip your pet, please contact us.

Call us today to schedule your pet today for a microchip! ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ

Question: How often should my puppy be examined by a veterinarian?

Answer: We recommend bringing your puppy in for an exam frequently during their first year to ensure they are growing and developing properly. The initial visit should be within a few days of first bringing your puppy home. This is a great chance for us to examine your puppy and make sure they are developing appropriately and that there are no obvious congenital or genetic issues. We will also recommend testing for intestinal parasites, which are a common finding in puppies. Around 6-8 weeks of age, your puppy will begin their vaccinations. Those vaccinations should be boostered every 3 weeks until they are 16 weeks old. These visits typically include a general health check by a veterinarian, vaccines, and flea, tick and heartworm preventatives. We also recommend a general health check around 6 months of age and then 1 year of age. Thankfully, our clinic will remind you along the way of these visits so you don't have to keep track! โค๏ธ

Question: When should my pet have bloodwork done?

Answer: Regular bloodwork helps establish what is normal for your pet, making it easier to detect deviations that may indicate the onset of disease. We recommend doing labwork in our puppies and kittens, especially before their spay or neuter. This helps us identify any congenital issues and gives us that first baseline. After that, annual bloodwork is recommended in our adult pets (1-7 years old) as part of their regular check-up. Our senior pets should ideally have bloodwork every 6 months to monitor for age-related conditions and changes in health. Other specific situations that would warrant bloodwork is before surgery, if your pet has a chronic condition (e.g. diabetes, kidney disease), new symptoms of illness, or long-term medication monitoring.
Many diseases do not show obvious symptoms in the early stages. Bloodwork can detect these hidden conditions before they become serious. Early detection also allows for prompt intervention, which can slow the progression of disease, improve the effectiveness of treatment, and enhance the overall prognosis. Schedule your pet's check-up today and give them the best chance at a long, healthy life! ๐Ÿ’™

Question: How can I tell if my pet is overweight or underweight?

Answer: We rely on Body Condition Scoring (see the chart that is pictured next) to assess whether a patient is a healthy weight, even more than we rely on a scale. When a dog or cat is in ideal body condition, you can easily feel their ribs (picture running a finger across the knuckles of your hand squeezed into a fist). You should also see a clear indention at their waist when you look at them from the side and from overhead. Pets with extra "jiggle" around the ribs and a straight or rounded waist are overweight; those with visible or protruding ribs, prominent backbones, or a hollowed-out belly are generally underweight. Long-haired pets are best evaluated when their hair is wet and close to their bodies. Cats who lose weight often keep a persistent pouch of loose skin under their bellies. We use the scale to aid in determining your pet's target (goal) weight and to monitor the progress of weight loss or gain. We're happy to perform a weight check at any time to help you achieve your goals for your pet! ๐ŸŽš๏ธ
