Wellness Exams for Your Pet
Regular checkups with the veterinary team at The Animal Hospital of Barrington are an essential part of your pet’s overall health. These exams help us keep tabs on your pet’s health by allowing us to notice any trends in your pet’s health or spot any worrying changes before they devolve into a serious health issue. Depending on your pet’s needs, a visit to see our Barrington veterinary team should occur every 6 months to 1 year.
You know your pet best. When you bring your pet in for their regular wellness exam, please let us know if you’ve noticed any changes in your pet’s health or behavior. It’s also helpful for us to know if your pet has any medical conditions for which they are receiving treatment. All these details help paint a complete picture of your pet’s health.
How Preventative Care Helps Your Pet
Preventative care is the practice of preventing disease before it takes hold. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Just like anything else we do for your pets at the Animal Hospital of Barrington, preventative care can look different for different pets.
Your pet’s preventative care needs will vary depending on many different factors, including things like their age and breed. Our Barrington veterinary team will work with you to create a plan that best suits you and your pet’s needs.
Preventative care for your pet can include:
- Parasite prevention
- Vaccinations
- Dental care
- Flea and tick control
- Regular blood work
- Behavioral assistance
- Nutritional counseling
Importance of Annual Vaccine Schedule
Staying on top of your pet’s vaccine schedule annually is crucial for their health. Regular vaccinations protect against infectious diseases, ensuring a longer and healthier life. It also contributes to community well-being by preventing the spread of illnesses. Stay proactive in safeguarding your pet’s well-being with timely and consistent vaccinations.
By making the long-term health of your pet a priority, you’ll be able to enjoy a happy, healthy pet for many years to come.
