Senior Pets
White Bear Animal Hospital
Otter Lake Animal Care Center
We are pleased to introduce a program that will help us provide
the best care for your senior pet: Celebrate Seniors!
Living longer, living better - starting at 7. Pets seven
years of age and older are considered to be seniors. Several
reasons to consider Senior Wellness Screening for your senior
pet include:
Our pets age much more quickly than their human
caretakers.
Pets often don't show signs of disease until well into the
course of the disease.
Many medical disorders are easier to manage when caught
early in their course.
A normal lab work baseline is helpful to compare against
later if medical issues arise.
Many older animals are on regular medications that require
periodic blood testing.
Pets' nutritional needs change as they age.
You deserve peace of mind.
Our Senior Wellness Screen for senior dogs and cats includes
the following tests:
Complete Blood Cell Count
Metabolic Biochemistry Profile
Urinalysis
Total Thyroid Level
Additional diagnostics may be recommended depending on the
specifics of each case and the results of the pet's history,
physical examination, and preliminary test results. Some of the
other diagnostics available include:
Radiography
Ultrasonography
Echocardiography
Blood Pressure Measurement
Electrocardiography
Testing blood levels of various medications
Please contact us if you have any questions, would like to
schedule a Senior Wellness Screening appointment, or if you
would like to have an information folder mailed to you. We look
forward to hearing from you and your senior pet will thank you.
