Pet Wellness Care

Importance of Pet Wellness Exams

Whether in the San Fernando Valley or anywhere throughout California, it can be a good idea to get routine pet wellness exams. During a pet wellness exam, a veterinarian on our team will perform a physical examination, check your pet’s measurements, and may recommend vaccinations or other preventative care measures.

We may also discuss your concerns about your pet’s behavior or diet. Regular wellness exams can help ensure that your pet lives a long and happy life. We can also help you identify any issues early on and address them before they become serious problems.

Senior Pet Care

It is important to make sure pets receive quality veterinarian care throughout their entire lives to remain as healthy as possible. Whether it is regular vaccinations, preventing disease, or receiving excellent senior pet care as your furry friend ages, at Berkley Pet Hospital in North Hollywood we can provide exceptional pet care.

Importance of Senior Pet Care

Senior pet needs are different from younger pets. Everything from the type of food a pet eats to how much exercise is needed will likely change as an animal ages. There are also certain conditions that a senior pet is more susceptible to. A few conditions include vision and hearing loss, arthritis, kidney disease, and certain types of cancer. Older cats may need special supplements if hairballs increasingly become a problem. Many older dogs may begin to experience joint pain and increased incontinence. For these reasons, senior pet care is extremely important. Senior pet care would include regular visits with a veterinarian and make sure all vaccinations remain current.
