It's, in fact, TRUE! Even though your pet looks healthy, getting routine blood work during their wellness exams is always recommended. There may be underlying conditions that aren't detectable by the naked eye. Detecting potential problems is one of the essential reasons dogs need blood work, especially for seniors, to monitor their organ health and age-related conditions. Have you scheduled your pet's routine wellness exam? Contact us at (757) 427-2222.

Certain dog breeds are significantly predisposed to heart disease, and one of these breeds is the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, which is particularly susceptible to Mitral Valve Disease (MVD). This condition can lead to heart failure due to the degeneration of the mitral valve in the heart, causing leakage that results in fluid buildup in the lungs and enlargement of the heart. MVD often affects older dogs, with symptoms potentially appearing as early as age 5 or 6. If you own this breed, regularly monitoring their health and watching for signs, including coughing, lethargy, and difficulty breathing, is essential. Remember to schedule their wellness check-ups with us at (757) 427-2222 so we can evaluate their heart and overall health.

When it comes to heart health, an echocardiogram is one of the most effective diagnostic tools for assessing your dog's heart condition. This non-invasive procedure takes about 20-30 minutes to complete and generally doesn't require shaving their fur, though a small patch may be shaved in some cases. The echocardiogram provides real-time images of the heart, allowing us to evaluate its size, condition, and pumping efficiency and identify any abnormalities. Contact us at (757) 427-2222!

Different breeds of cats mature at slightly different rates. Depending on your kitten's breed, it might take them somewhat longer to mature. Maine C***s, for example, aren't considered mature until about 3 or 4 years old. Some cats never even really outgrow their kitten phase! Looking for more fun facts about your cat? Follow us for more. Contact our office at (757) 427-2222.

Chemistry panels help assess your cat's health along with other routine wellness exams. They're best known for evaluating how healthy organs such as the liver, kidneys, and pancreas function. Early signs of liver and kidney disease and diabetes can be detected through this test. A urine sample is also recommended for a thorough check to get a complete picture of your cat's health. Have you scheduled your pet's routine wellness exam? Contact us at (757) 427-2222.

With the busy pace of life, our dogs can't always be with us. We often have to leave them at home and return to them later. As a result, some pets may develop separation anxiety. Fortunately, there are effective ways to help them overcome this. You can train them to understand that you'll be back soon and that there's no need to worry. Techniques like counter-conditioning, gradual desensitization, increasing physical stimulation, and creating a safe space can help. If you need more guidance, please call us at (757) 427-2222.
