Microchip: Many pets will become lost at some point in their lifetime. Some are never found but with a microchip, your pet can be identified even if no collar or tag is present. A microchip increases the chances of being reunited with your pet if lost. Doctor discretion with small or young pets. ($56)
Nail Trim: Long nails can cause discomfort for the pet and can cause damage to the delicate structures of the feet. Would you like your pet's nails to be trimmed today? Pets who are undergoing an anesthetic procedure will have their nails trimmed at no charge. ($32)
Anal Gland Expression: If you have noticed any licking/scooting or chewing, their glands might be blocked and require a manual expression. ($23)
Pre-medicate prior to Vaccinations: While the chances of vaccine reactions are low, there is always a risk for your pet to react even if they have had no prior history or symptoms of vaccine reaction (soreness, swelling, vomiting, diarrhea). We may recommend a diphenhydramine injection prior to vaccination to minimize the chance of a reaction. Post-vaccination pain medications are also available. (varies)
Heartworm Prevention: Does your pet need a refill on heartworm prevention? We recommend year-round prevention. Heartworm disease is caused by a long slender worm that lives in the heart and adjoining vessels of infected pets. Heartworms are transmitted by mosquitoes and can cause substantial damage to the heart and lung before the pet shows any sign of disease and can also be fatal. Dogs will require a yearly heartworm test preformed prior to prevention being administered. (varies)
Flea & Tick Prevention: Does your pet need a refill on flea and/or tick prevention? Fleas and ticks can carry and cause disease and discomfort in humans and animals. Ask about available products for recommendations. (varies)
