Dog Preventive Care

To keep your best friend going strong, start early, at 6 weeks:

• A physical examination
• Vaccinations for disease prevention
• Intestinal parasite detection and elimination
• Heartworm prevention
• Flea and tick prevention
• Spay or neuter at 4-6 months of age to prevent unwanted pregnancy and reproductive tract infections and cancers

As your dog ages:

• An examination should be done at least yearly – we can find so many treatable problems early with this simple, essential tool.
• Periodic vaccinations and deworming
• Prevention and/or elimination of heartworms, fleas and ticks.
• As your dog matures, wellness blood tests can help detect diseases early at their most treatable stage.
