A Long, Healthy Life is Possible with Pet Wellness Care
At Monongahela Animal Hospital, we know that you want a long, healthy life for your pet. So do we! Helping your pet resist illness and overcome health obstacles is what we’re most passionate about. With pet wellness care, our team can offer preventive medicine, dietary counseling, diagnostics, and customized treatment plans to keep them thriving at every stage of life.
Building Up Your Pet’s Health, Year After Year
We care about knowing you and your pet personally. Having the fullest understanding of their health and circumstances means we can provide the best care to support their well-being. Prevention is the most important way to keep your pet protected from disease, and we can do this with annual checkups that include:
- A head-to-tail physical exam
- Heartworm, Lyme, and tick-borne disease testing
- Fecal testing
- Core and lifestyle vaccinations
- Blood chemistry panels
- Nutrition counseling
- Deworming (if needed)
- Additional treatment recommendations (dental cleaning, spay/neuter surgery, etc.)
New Puppy and Kitten Visits
Puppies and kittens have fragile immune systems and are often infected with intestinal worms before or shortly after they're born. The sooner they see us for a checkup, the sooner we can treat any existing problems. We can also prepare them for their next visit, which may include vaccinations and additional testing. The goal is to gradually build up your pet’s immune system so they can resist disease more effectively.
Maintaining the Health of Your Adult Pet
Adult dogs and cats are healthiest when they receive annual or biannual exams and are regularly tested for parasites and other diseases. Many things can change in just a year and your pet may not show signs of illness until it has become more serious. We also recommend checking in to see whether your pet’s current vaccination protocol is still benefiting them or if we need to make changes.
Increasing Quality of Life for Senior Pets
Senior dogs and cats are prone to aches, pains, and chronic illnesses just like people are. The key to keeping your pet thriving in their golden years is early disease detection and proactive treatment. With routine exams and blood work, potential issues have nowhere to hide.
Additionally, our hospital offers a variety of pain management and internal medicine solutions to help with chronic issues such as arthritis, diabetes, and heart disease.
