Senior Care

As pets enter their senior years, (dogs at 7 years of age, cats at 10 years of age) twice-a-year preventive care exams and annual laboratory tests will be recommended. Remember, your pet ages more rapidly during their senior years, and the risk of developing a chronic condition or serious disease also increases. Scheduling a routine preventive care visit every six months will help your veterinarian detect diseases or conditions in their early stages when they may still be treated or controlled effectively.
