Senior Pet Wellness Care
Our doctors at Family Pet Clinic are committed to assisting owners in keeping their elderly pets happy and healthy during their golden years.
Senior Pet Wellness Care
Preventative care is far too frequently disregarded by pet owners who believe that only young animals require it. Older animals are still prone to various ailments, parasites, and diseases. Your veterinarian can find signs of cataracts, glaucoma, and retinal degeneration with the use of pet wellness checkups and senior pet care so that you can work together to stop or delay blindness.
That is just the start. Even in senior pets, routine vaccination administration can stop a variety of pet ailments. Additionally, pet owners should never stop worrying about diseases like heartworms. These are just a few ailments that aging pets experience, and with regular health exams and preventative care, your veterinarian may help you prevent them or start early treatment for them.
