Services-Wellness Health Care
Giving our faithful furry friends a long and healthy life starts with effective healthcare catered to your pets specific needs. That includes a complete wellness exam at least once a year to conduct a physical exam, administer vaccines according to your pet's schedule, nutrition evaluations, and screenings for pervasive issues like heartworm, tick borne illness, and parasites. By regularly conducting these exams, we can stay on top of your pet’s healthcare needs for life and treat issues as they arise, before they become serious.
If your pet is on any prescription medications or foods, we do require a yearly exam to maintain a patient/doctor relationship, as required by Minnesota Law, in order to continue prescribing those items.

During wellness visits, we conduct a complete examination of your pet to develop a comprehensive health profile. This information establishes a baseline of health to reference in future treatment. More importantly, this insight allows us to identify medical problems at an early stage, where treatment is both cheaper for you and less intensive for your pet.
Common signs of health issues include:
