Preventive Care

Dental Care
Does your best friend have bad breath? Despite what many pet owners may believe, â€œdog breathâ€ is not just a nuisance â€“ itâ€™s a sign of an unhealthy mouth. Bad breath is caused by bacteria. Over time, bacteria lead to plaque and tartar buildup on your petâ€™s teeth. The result is bad breath, reddened gums, and other common signs of dental disease. As dental disease progresses, other signs can include drooling, discomfort while chewing, and loose or missing teeth. Even if youâ€™re using treats and chews to help control tartar, these are frequently not enough to keep dental disease in check. Ask us about the best ways to control plaque and help protect your pet from dental disease.

Vaccination
Pets today can live longer, healthier lives than ever before with our pet vaccines in Brooklyn that help protect them from deadly infectious diseases. Over the years, vaccines against dangerous diseases have saved millions of pets and virtually eliminated some fatal diseases that were once common. Unfortunately, many infectious diseases still pose a significant threat to dogs and cats that are unvaccinated. Although vaccine programs have been highly successful and vaccines are considered routine today, we (as caregivers) and you (as pet parents) cannot afford to become complacent about keeping pets up-to-date on their vaccinations.
Nutritional Counseling
Whether your pet has special dietary needs or simply needs to shed (or gain) a few pounds, our nutritional counseling services can help you accomplish your goals and keep your pet in good health. We offer counseling in dietary selection and feeding practices for pets during various life stages, such as growth, pregnancy, nursing, and the â€œgolden years.â€ If your pet has a medical condition, we can help you select the most appropriate diet to suit your petâ€™s needs.
Comprehensive Examination
Preventative medicine is the key to keeping your pet happy and healthy. We believe that all pets should undergo a comprehensive wellness exam annually, which focuses on all body systems and helps us identify health conditions in your pet before they become difficult and expensive to treat. These exams enable us to create an overall picture of your pet’s health status, combining aspects of your pet’s at home routine and history with physical exam findings to create straightforward recommendations for your pet’s continued wellbeing.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
There was a time when parasites like fleas, ticks, and roundworms were considered mostly a nuisance. Now, however, we know that parasites can cause serious illness and even death in pets making flea treatment in Brooklyn vital for your pet. Ticks can transmit infections like Lyme disease, and fleas can transmit tapeworms and Bartonella â€“ the bacteria that causes â€œcat-scratch feverâ€ in humans. Another type of parasite, called a heartworm, is transmitted by mosquitoes. Heartworms live in your petâ€™s lungs and heart, causing damage to these organs, and sometimes even death. Intestinal parasites, like roundworms and hookworms, also threaten pets and are even transmissible to humans. You may not always be able to tell if your pet has parasites. Fleas can hide under your petâ€™s fur, and some ticks are very tiny (only the size of a pinhead), so they are very difficult to find. Intestinal parasites like roundworms can cause diarrhea and other problems, but many infected pets donâ€™t show any signs of illness at all.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Diabetes Treatment
Heart Disease Treatment
From the very first day you bring a new pet home through the final days of its life, nutrition plays a critical role in your petâ€™s overall health and well-being. Many pet owners take nutrition for granted, in part because the availability of so many nutritionally complete commercial diets has taken much of the guesswork out of choosing a suitable diet for a pet. However, did you know that your petâ€™s nutritional needs change with age and activity level? Did you know that specially formulated diets can assist in the management of various medical conditions, including kidney disease, diabetes, arthritis, and heart disease? Do you know how many calories your pet should have each day and whether you are over- or underfeeding? Are you comfortable reading and interpreting pet food labels?
Kidney Disease Treatment
Dental hygiene is an important part of your pet’s health, because dental disease can be associated with other serious health problems such as heart disease and kidney disease. But how do you know if your pet has a healthy mouth? Let us examine your petâ€™s teeth and gums to help determine if there are any dental issues you should know about. After a brief visual examination, we may recommend a more detailed examination (which requires sedation), a dental cleaning, or options for at-home dental care.

Veterinary Surgery
Your petâ€™s surgical journey will begin with a consultation. Your pet may need one of the following surgical services:Â
Spaying and Neutering
Â€¯ No pet parent wants to hear that their fur baby needs surgery. Even if itâ€™s just a routine procedure, such as spaying or neutering, the thought of surgery can be very scary for the people and pets involved.Â

Laboratory Services
Did you know that pets age faster than people and can be considered â€œseniorsâ€ at around 7 years of age? Just as our health care needs change as we age, your petâ€™s health care needs also change. Nutritional needs, exercise habits, and many aspects of your petâ€™s daily routine can change as your pet ages. But how can you tell the difference between â€œnormalâ€ aging and a medical problem? As in humans, some health issues that affect older pets can begin with very subtle changes that may go unnoticed until the problem has become serious. Regular wellness visits are important for every stage of your petâ€™s life, so donâ€™t forget to keep your senior petâ€™s scheduled wellness appointments. The best way to help protect your pet as he or she ages is to understand the aging process in pets. We understand that process and can help you help your pet. Even if your senior pet is already being treated for a medical condition, treatment recommendations can change as a condition progresses. Sometimes medication dosages need to be adjusted, or medication may need to be changed. Routine wellness blood work and other routine diagnostic testing are important for senior pets because these tests allow us to evaluate how your petâ€™s health is either responding to current management strategies or changing with age.
Microchipping
Each year, thousands of pets go missing, and many donâ€™t make it back home. Many pets (especially indoor pets) donâ€™t wear collars or tags. Even if your pet wears a collar and identification tag, collars can break off and tags can become damaged and unreadable, so these forms of identification may not be enough to ensure your petâ€™s safe return. Your pet needs a form of identification that is reliable and canâ€™t get lost, stolen, or damaged like our microchipping in Brooklyn. A microchip is a safe, simple form of identification that can significantly increase the chance that your pet will return safely.

General Pet Care

Senior Pet Care
Your senior petâ€™s wellness examination is also your chance to have us address any of your questions or concerns about your pet. We welcome your questions and encourage you to be involved in decisions regarding your petâ€™s health care.
