When should my pet have a wellness exam?
Most healthy adult pets should be seen once a year, while puppies, kittens, senior pets, and pets with chronic medical conditions usually need more frequent visits. Routine wellness exams are important to detect disease early, often before your pet shows any signs of illness.
Does my cat or dog really need a dental cleaning?
Dental disease affects the majority of adult dogs and cats due to lack of proper oral care. We perform comprehensive dental cleanings under anesthesia with full oral examinations and dental radiographs when needed. We are also able to remove any infected teeth.
Getting routine dental cleanings at Homeward Bound Veterinary Services can help prevent painful dental disease, lessen bad breath, improve overall health, and protect your pet’s heart, kidneys, and liver from infection due to dental disease bacteria.
Does your veterinary hospital offer surgery, and what is laparoscopic surgery?
Yes, Homeward Bound Veterinary Service performs spays, neuters, mass removals, and many soft-tissue and orthopedic surgeries. We also offer laparoscopic surgery for certain procedures, such as spays, gastropexies, cryptorchid neuters, and select biopsies.
A laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical technique performed through tiny incisions using a camera and specialized instruments. These surgical procedures require much smaller incisions, which means less pain, lower risk of complications, and a faster recovery time for your pet.
Why would my pet need a CT scan at Homeward Bound Veterinary Services?
Our advanced CT scanner can be used to diagnose pet health problems that traditional X-rays may miss. Veterinary CT imaging is often used for:
- Orthopedic Injuries
- Nasal Disease
- Ear Disease
- Dental Disease
- Cancer Evaluation
- Neurologic Conditions
- Surgical Planning
