Best Friend's Veterinary Hospital

There are many online pharmacies, especially those you are familiar with that frequent television ads and market home delivery of veterinary prescriptions at greatly reduced prices. The most popular items include heartworm prevention, flea and tick control products, and prescription diets. These products are not guaranteed by the manufacturer for quality because the manufacturer refuses to allow their products to be distributed by these internet sites.The internet companies solicit third party sources to obtain product that are often not properly prepared or handled.

Dogs generally go to the bathroom outside, however it is possible for them to be box or puppy pad trained. Veterinary Care - We currently offer vaccinations against rabies, distemper/parvo/parainfuenza/hepatitis/corona/leptosporosis, bordetella (kennel cough), canine influenza, and lyme disease. A fecal check should be performed yearly to make sure your dog does not have any intestinal parasites (some, of which, they can give to you!).

A fecal check should be performed yearly to make sure your cat does not have intestinal parasites (some, of which, they can give to you!) Even an indoor exclusively cat can have intestinal parasites. Cats tend to hunt mice and insects which can infect your cat with these parasites. A heartworm test should be performed annually.

Diet - Pelleted food is a healthier choice than a seed diet, but it is important to convert birds slowly by offering seeds at the cage bottom, and pellets mixed with a few seeds at a higher location. Avicakes and Nutraberries are very good for improving your bird's diet, as they are mixtures of seeds and pellets.

Habitat - They need a clean roomy tank, fresh water, a UVA/UVB light source, a heat source, and newspaper or paper towels to line the tank. Please refer to our lizard check list for an easy terrarium guide. They are best kept at temperatures ranging between 85-90 degrees with basking spots at 95-100 degrees.
