Senior Pet Care

For starters, senior pets have specific nutritional requirements and often develop age-related diseases. Taking a proactive approach to senior pet care can help prevent disease or identify problems before complications and major illness arise. This typically results in a more successful outcome and better overall prognosis. Regular physical examinations (every 6 months is ideal) and screening tests to more thoroughly evaluate the health of your pet can significantly extend the quality and duration of his or her life.
