Beginning at around age 7, your pet enters his or her senior years. Often, pets begin to develop diseases common to their senior human counterparts, such as diabetes, renal disease, heart disease, endocrine disease and cancer. Early in these diseases symptoms may be subtle and go unnoticed. Early detection can help in disease prevention and can minimize suffering. Early intervention with a program of diet and or medications can be started to help manage certain diseases or slow their progression, thus extending your pet's life as well as his or her quality of life. Preventive diagnostics include establishing baseline bloodwork, physical exam and urinalysis. Together, we can help your pet. You know your pet better than anyone else and can alert us to any changes in your pet before they become serious. We can help you understand the common medical conditions that your senior pet faces, and discuss a regular monitoring plan.
