Senior Health Checks

Becoming older should mean more frequent health checks

When a pet becomes older, it is more common to find disease in the form of mouth infections, diabetes, arthritis, lumps and bumps etc and if we only see your dog or cat once a year for vaccination, then it could mean that a condition may develop which would have been better to haver been treated at an earlier stage.

To avoid this happening, we may advise that we undertake a senior health check every 6 months. The age from which we recommend this will vary with the pet, according to how fit they are, the breed and their life-style. We will advise accordingly. We charge an examination fee for this, but strongly recommend it for your pet's health monitoring.

If you bring a urine sample, then we will test it with a dip-test for free.
