The Importance of Regular Wellness Visits

Routine wellness visits are essential for keeping your pet healthy and happy. These checkups allow our veterinarian to assess your pet’s overall health and identify any potential issues early.

A wellness visit helps us to:

  • Detect signs of illness, injury, or disease that may not be visible at home
  • Track growth, weight, and dental health to ensure overall well-being
  • Discuss behavior, diet, or lifestyle changes and recommend care as needed

By addressing concerns early, wellness visits can prevent more serious health issues down the road.

Preventative Care: Protecting Your Pet’s Health

Preventative care plays a vital role in ensuring your pet lives a long, healthy life. At Sheridan Pet Care, we emphasize proactive health management.

Through regular wellness visits, your pet can receive:

  • Tailored advice on parasite prevention, nutrition, and exercise
  • Routine blood tests and screenings to catch conditions like diabetes and kidney disease early
  • Early detection leads to timely and effective treatments

Preventative care helps maintain your pet’s health and minimizes the risk of serious illnesses.

Vaccination: Essential Protection for Your Pet

Vaccinations are a cornerstone of disease prevention, safeguarding your pet and the community. Vaccinations are critical to your pet’s lasting health, offering:

  • Protection against diseases such as rabies, parvovirus, and distemper
  • Prevention against disease outbreaks in your local area

Staying up to date on vaccinations is one of the simplest ways to protect your pet.

Microchipping: A Simple Step for Long-Term Safety

Microchipping offers a safe and permanent form of identification, ensuring your pet has a better chance of being brought back home.

Microchipping your pet is:

  • A quick and minimally invasive procedure
  • Recommended for both indoor and outdoor pets
  • Key to increasing the chances of being reunited with your pet if lost

Even indoor pets can escape unexpectedly, making microchipping a valuable safety measure.

When to Schedule a Wellness Visit

We recommend scheduling pet wellness visits at least once a year for most pets, though puppies, kittens, and senior pets may require more frequent checkups. If your pet has ongoing health concerns or you notice any changes in their behavior, appetite, or energy levels, scheduling an appointment as soon as possible is important. Regular wellness visits are also crucial if you are introducing a new pet to your household or transitioning them to a new stage of life, such as senior years.
