We recommend that your pets receive a veterinary examination once yearly. Your pets age more quickly than humans and their size and breed influence this age. A yearly exam will allow us to review your pet's recent history, lifestyle, daily activities, diet, and behavior. The physical examination includes a dental assessment, pain assessment, and body condition scoring. We will then make a specific and detailed plan for your pet.
