Puppy & Kitten Wellness

Congratulations on your new puppy or kitten! Thank you for choosing us to help protect and care for your new addition to your family.

Our puppy & kitten wellness guide is designed to help get your pet started on the right path to a long and healthy life. The first few months are a critical period in your puppy or kitten’s development, and we can give you the support and tools necessary to help him or her grow into a well-mannered, healthy dog or cat, including information and advice on nutrition, training, behavior, and socialization.

Schedule your pet for their first exam as soon as possible. Until your pet has received a series of vaccines, they are susceptible to many serious but preventable diseases. We will make sure your new pet is protected against rabies, distemper, and parvovirus, among other diseases. Your pet will also need to be tested and treated for parasites, which are extremely common in young dogs and cats.

It is important for puppies and kittens to be treated for roundworms, not only to rid them of the infection but also to prevent you and the rest of your family from becoming infected. Roundworms are a zoonotic parasite, which means they can be transmitted from pets to people. By ensuring that your puppy & kitten are properly treated, you can keep your entire family safe from these and other parasites.

When choosing the right food for your puppy or kitten, we can help you find a puppy or kitten food that will meet your growing pet’s specific nutritional needs. Feel free to ask us for a food recommendation or contact us with any nutrition questions or concerns.

We look forward to meeting your new puppy or kitten! Schedule your appointment today.
