Wellness Exams

A comprehensive yearly exam will help to monitor the health of your pet as they age. These exams also play a large part in early detection of conditions where early treatment provides the best options for your pet. We think of this annual exam as a preventive "physical" for your pet. Vaccinations and general health evaluation are usually done at this time, along with worming and discussion of the latest flea control options. The teeth and gums of each pet are also checked, with recommendations for scheduling dental cleanings if needed. Skin, ears, eyes, and orthopedic issues are addressed as well. These annual exams ensure the best opportunity for a long, healthy, and happy life.

Preventative Health

Each pet is as individual as their owner. Therefore, their individual needs may vary. Our staff will recommend methods of maintaining a healthy pet through preventive therapies. We believe in being proactive rather than reactive when it comes to your pet’s health.

Parasite Control

Blue Cross Veterinary Clinic recommends that your pet receives dewormings for intestinal parasites at regular intervals throughout the first year, then regular strategic dewormings as an adult pet.

Vaccinations

Annual vaccinations are given by our doctor and are usually done with the wellness exam. We will discuss recommended vaccines with each client. For new pets/clients, we recommend bringing your pet’s most current vaccine information to the appointment. We also offer a discount program on vaccines for puppies and kittens. Read More

Dermatology

This can be one of the most frustrating issues for a pet owner. At Blue Cross Veterinary Clinic we provide thorough skin and coat evaluations with accompanying therapy recommendations. This allows us to treat varying conditions such as environmental and flea allergies, skin infections, or mites. Treatment might include special diets, shampoos or similar products, and medical management with pharmaceuticals. Read More

Flea & Tick Prevention

Blue Cross Veterinary Clinic carries a large selection of flea and tick treatments, some available only for sale by veterinarians. We strongly recommend that you consult a clinic before choosing a flea and tick product over the counter. A large number of products on the market are not suitable for young, debilitated and older animals, and many of them simply do not work. Consulting with a veterinarian can get you the results you need safely and quickly. Read More
