Puppy Wellness

Our puppy wellness program is designed to offer your new puppy all the benefits of veterinary services available to him / or her from 6 weeks of age to 16 weeks of age. Included in this service is a series of examinations and vaccinations including rabies, distemper, parvovirus, etc. In addition, your puppy will be tested for worms and be treated for the most common intestinal worm of puppies – roundworms. Performing a fecal test will allow us to treat your puppy accordingly. Although some worms are visible to the naked eye, most worm burdens are diagnosed by examining the stool of your puppy microscopically. A monthly preventative is recommended to be administered year round to prevent; heartworm disease & treat and control roundworms, hookworms & tapeworms.  A dose of flea & tick preventative is also recommended to be applied monthy to control fleas, ticks, chewing lice and sarcoptic mites.
