What to Expect During a Wellness Exam
When you bring your pet in for a checkup, we will check their weight and vital signs. The veterinarian will also conduct a thorough checkup and examine your dog or cat from the end of their snout to the tip of their tail. She will look in their eyes, ears, and mouth, palpate their abdomen, and manipulate certain joints to make sure they are functioning properly.
We will also go over your pet’s diet, exercise habits, behavior, and any changes you might have noticed. Depending on your pet’s species, breed, age, and lifestyle, we may also suggest preventive measures, like vaccinations, to help them stay healthy.
