Senior Health Screenings

If your dog is older than 7 (that's nearly 50 in dog years) why not book them in for a senior pet health screen today with one of our Veterinary Surgeons. 

Did you know that dogs age at around 7 years to every human year? So, visiting the vet every 6 months is the equivalent to us seeing a doctor once every three and a half years!

Like us, our pets can develop age related diseases such as diabetes, kidney problems or issues with their eyesight. They will often hide any discomfort they are in though, due to their primal survival instincts, leading back to when our pets were wild. 

Whilst vets look for hidden signs of pain and early indications of diseases, these are often only apparent when diseases become severe enough to produce symptoms such as excessive drinking, urination or fluctuations in weight.

A simple blood test, urine test and test for dry eye accompanied by a routine physical exam can help us tell you if your pet is as healthy on the inside as they look on the outside, or if early signs of age related disease are present.

So, if your dog is older than 7 why not book them in for a senior pet health screen* today?
