Bringing your dog or cat in for routine wellness examinations is one of the most powerful things you can do for your pet’s health and happiness. This allows us to establish a baseline for your pet’s health and behavior, and to quickly spot when something becomes irregular. During your dog or cat’s examination, we will thoroughly check each of their major bodily systems.

Acupuncture has been used in animals for thousands of years. It is primarily used to treat functional problems in your dog or cat, such as noninfectious inflammation, pain, or mobility issues. It can be used to treat a wide range of health issues – from arthritis, to diarrhea, to feline asthma, anxiety, hip dysplasia, and even some reproductive problems.

The majority of dogs and cats over the age of three show signs of periodontal disease. Over the years, it has become increasingly clear how central your pet’s oral health is to the health of the rest of their body. Bacteria from periodontal disease can spread through the bloodstream and damage your pet’s vital internal organs – such as their heart, liver, and kidneys. We can prevent this through routine dental cleanings, and helping you keep their teeth brushed between visits at home.

An herb is a plant with active therapeutic processes. If properly used, herbal medicine can treat a wide range of health issues in pets, including chronic kidney failure, epilepsy, behavioral disorders, hormonal disorders, skin allergies, and more. Herbal therapy has fewer side effects than modern pharmaceutical treatments.

Every dog or cat should be vaccinated for rabies, and other vaccinations may be appropriate given your pet’s medical history or environment. We can consult with you on which vaccinations should be considered, answer any questions you have, and can set up a schedule of vaccinations for your pet.

The stresses of daily existence can be hard on the body – jumping, running, playing, twisting, bouncing. When an animal, human or pet, suffers muscle or nerve pain, chiropractic adjustments can prove useful to realign mechanical interactions between the soft tissues (muscles, ligaments, tendons) and the bony skeleton. This results in pain reduction, decreased inflammation and more effective biomechanics. Regular adjustments help maintain normal range of motion of joints.
