Routine Fecal Tests (including prior to 4H Shows, Boarding, Daycare & Training) –
Routine parasite screenings help indicate our pet’s internal health. Many pet facilities and animal-related events require these screenings to ensure the health and safety of animal participants when brought together in large groups. Fecal tests for parasites include testing for parasitic worms, coccidiosis, giardia, ova, and parasites of microorganisms that may be in your pet’s gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, some of these parasites and microorganisms can affect multiple species in the household, including us!

Whether you are feeding an over the counter pet food to a prescription diet, we are happy to set up a consultation appointment.
Dentistry
Dental Prophylaxis: Pets need routine dental cleaning and care too! This procedure includes a detailed exam, scaling, and polishing of teeth under anesthesia and careful observation.
Digital Dental Radiography: Patients undergoing Dental Prophylaxis can significantly benefit from dental radiography; this allows our Doctors and our Dentistry team to see the overall health of teeth and roots under the gum line. This information will help your Veterinarian determine extractions and overall health of your pet’s mouth.
Extractions & Oral Surgery: Extractions of teeth in pets can be necessary. The process of removals requires highly educated and trained staff as it is an oral surgery involving surgical drills, suturing gum tissue, and aftercare instruction for proper healing. Similarly, oral surgery is the removal of masses, or correction of the mouth is a major surgery. We recommend dental and full mouth radiographs to have a complete picture of gum health and teeth health.
