Wellness Programs
We realize that your pet is like a member of your family, and you want the best possible health care for your companion throughout his or her lifetime. The doctors and staff at Vulcan Park Animal Care in Homewood, Alabama, are committed to providing personal attention to the unique concerns of every pet owner. We are dedicated to partnering with you in the health care of your pet from the first examinations and vaccinations of your young, healthy puppies and kittens, through early detection and treatment of disease as your pet ages.
Consistent annual check-ups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems later in your pet’s life. During our wellness visits, our knowledgeable veterinarians will conduct a thorough physical examination from nose to tail, checking vital signs, looking for abnormalities, and testing for heartworms and other parasites. After assessing your pet’s risk of exposure to diseases, we will develop a vaccine schedule based on your pet’s individual needs. Wellness blood profiles and urinalysis may be recommended for your pet at certain ages or if they fit certain risk categories.
Our skilled veterinarians will provide the most up-to-date patient care, with an emphasis on client education, to keep your pet companions feeling their best. We will develop preventive protocols for your pet regarding the best ways to control fleas and ticks in your house, your yard, and on your pet. We will provide guidance for your pet’s nutritional needs for each life stage, including dietary requirements for growth, weight maintenance, and performance. We can spay or neuter your pet at the appropriate age, not just to prevent unwanted litters, but to lessen the development of cancer in both genders of dogs and cats.
Whether your pet is a puppy or a kitten, young adult, or senior, come see us at Vulcan Park Animal Care for your pet health care needs. We would love to get to know you and your pets and start them on a journey of healthy and happy living.
