Pet Vaccinations for Preventative Care

We at Georgetown Animal Hospital are proud to provide a myriad of general pet health and wellness services, including preventative pet care. Preventative pet care is an essential component of pet health and wellness. It includes ensuring a pet is on the proper diet, flea and tick prevention, getting the right amount of exercise for healthy muscle development, and ensuring the pet is on the correct vaccination schedule. If your animal needs a vaccine, our team is here to help.

Preventative Care

Preventative care plays a crucial role in keeping your pet healthy long term. Our preventative care program includes such services as annual wellness exams, diagnostic testing, parasite control, vaccinations, dental care, spay and neuter procedures, senior pet care, and more. The wellness exams that are a part of our preventative care enable us to keep track of your pet's health. It is also a good way of detecting early signs of health conditions or diseases before the disease has a chance to spread. Early detection and treatment of health issues can improve your pet's chances of having a successful recovery.

As your pet ages, he or she requires more attention and monitoring than they used to when they were younger. Elderly pets require specialized geriatric care to ensure they maintain a healthy and happy life. Senior animals cannot handle common infections and ailments as well as younger pets. Taking your geriatric pet to our animal hospital for preventative care ensures that any abnormality is detected early enough before becoming severe.

Importance of Vaccinating Your Pet

Vaccines are necessary because certain viruses can cause severe issues and complications in your pet when left untreated. Some viruses left in the system for too long can eventually become untreatable. Not only do you vaccinate to protect your pet, but you also vaccinate to protect all other pets. When your pet is vaccinated, you help prevent a virus from being spread and potentially killing someone else's pet.

Flea and Tick Prevention

Flea and tick prevention are an essential part of providing preventative care for your pet. There are various flea and tick prevention medications available for your pet. A monthly pill is the most common and effective means of controlling pests. We also offer topical treatments you can use on your animal. Flea and tick collars are also helpful in some situations.
