- Pain ManagementAnything that causes pain in people can be expected to cause pain in animals. Pets may not show the same symptoms of pain as people do; they usually don't whine or cry, but you can be sure they feel it. Pain medications needed will depend on the surgery performed. Major procedures require more pain relief than things like minor lacerations.

- Leptospirosis TreatmentNon- core vaccines that may be recommended include lyme, leptospirosis, and K9 influenza for dogs. Feline leukemia is recommended for our outdoor cats.
- Kidney Disease TreatmentDental care of dogs and cats is a commonly overlooked area of pet health care. Approximately two-thirds of pet owners do not provide the dental care recommended by veterinarians. Up to 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats show signs of dental disease as early as age 3. Dental disease can lead to more serious health problems including heart, lung and kidney disease.
- Periodontal Disease TreatmentDental work for your pet starts with a thorough oral exam. The degree of periodontal disease is assessed, problem teeth are identified, and then cleaning the teeth by removing plaque and tartar is performed using dental tools very much like your dentist uses on you. If plaque and tartar buildup is not removed it will spread below the gum line causing an infection that will break down the tissues around the teeth leading to erosion of the tooth socket causing loose and painful teeth. Problem teeth very often need to be removed. Remaining teeth are polished to help slow the plaque from building up again.
