What Does an Animal Wellness Exam Entail?

Every pet is different and, because of this, each wellness exam is personalized to the individual patient. In most cases, we’ll take a look at your pet’s overall internal and external health, keeping an eye out for any age-typical conditions, as well as unusual symptoms that may point to a potential health issue. Our wellness exams also involve preventative treatment to ensure that your pet is as happy and healthy as possible.

Generally speaking, our Granville pet wellness exams include the following:

• A comprehensive physical exam
• Vaccinations and boosters
• Internal parasite testing
• Heartworm and/or flea control
• Specialized blood tests
• Spay and neuter (when applicable)

When creating a preventative health care program for your pet, we factor in his or her age, breed, size, lifestyle, and other important factors. This allows us to provide personalized wellness services that are specifically tailored to the unique needs of your pet.

Nutritional Counseling

One of the best ways you can ensure your pet’s continued health is to make sure he or she is getting the proper nutrition. Diet is a key element in anyone’s overall wellness, including your cat, dog, or other pet! However, with the enormous range of pet food brands and products to choose from, finding the right nutrition plan for your pet can be challenging.

At Granville Small Animal Hospital, we offer comprehensive animal nutritional counseling services in Granville and the surrounding areas. Our knowledgeable team can recommend a program for your pet that takes into account their total health and wellness—from the inside out!

Frequently Asked Questions

How Often Does My Pet Need a Wellness Exam?

Generally, puppies and kittens need more frequent exams (every 4-6 weeks) in their first year of life. Adult dogs and cats typically benefit from annual exams. Senior pets (over 7 years old) may require biannual exams to monitor their health more closely.

Can I be present during my pet's wellness exam?

Yes, we encourage pet owners to be present during their pet's wellness exam. This allows you to ask questions and observe your pet's interaction with the veterinarian.

Should I take my pet to the vet if they seem healthy?

Even if your pet seems healthy, regular wellness exams are crucial. Some health problems can progress silently, and early detection is key for effective treatment.

What happens if my pet needs further diagnostics after a wellness exam?

If your veterinarian detects any concerns during the exam, they'll discuss your options. This might involve additional tests like x-rays or specialized bloodwork. We'll work with you to create a personalized diagnostic plan based on your pet's needs.
