We are pleased to introduce a new program that will help us provide the best care for your senior pet: Celebrate Seniors! Living longer, living better—starting at age 7.
As your pet enters his or her senior years, he or she may develop diseases common to you and I, as we age— conditions such as diabetes, cataracts, arthritis, thyroid disease, and cancer. Many of the diseases affecting senior pets can be treated or medically controlled if detected early.
In fact—
•
Your pet ages roughly seven years for each human year, depending on breed and size. Large breeds age faster than small breeds.
•
By age seven, many pets are feeling the aches and pains of aging, and they can’t tell us what’s wrong.
Preventative health care is the best way to optimize the quantity and quality of life for your older pet. We recommend preventative health screening for all aging pets (even those showing no signs of illness) to establish baseline values and rule out the presence of clinically silent health problems. With your watchful eye and our state-of-the-art diagnostics and therapies, we can identify early stages of disease and manage them proactively.
In order to provide you with the best care for your pet, we are offering our Senior Health Care Profiles at a discount of 20% off our regular diagnostic panels. Please call (920) 727-1570 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
We look forward to helping you provide the best care for your pet.
