Wellness and Preventative Care

Wellness Care at Sutton Road Animal Hospital

Regular wellness care is the best way to ensure that your pet remains happy and healthy. Whether you have a new puppy, kitten, or a senior pet, wellness care is crucial for preventing health-related issues from negatively impacting your pet's life. Sutton Road Animal Hospital in Streamwood offers preventative wellness care for dogs and cats. If you are concerned about pet wellness care, our professional staff is here to help. Here's what to expect from our wellness care.

Disease and Injury Diagnosis

One of the best ways to diagnose issues is to bring your pet to our animal hospital regularly. Annual appointments ensure that your pet receives ongoing care. We often catch diseases early on before symptoms set in during regular pet exams. We can also check if your pet's recent injury is worsening and what treatment is needed.

Annual Vaccines

One of the reasons why vets recommend bringing a pet in annually for pet wellness exams is for vaccines. Typically, vaccines are administered on an annual basis for adult cats and dogs. This regular care will prevent your pet from fatal diseases like rabies and parvo. Our vets may recommend additional vaccinations based on your pet's lifestyle and current health.

Puppy and Kitten Care

Puppies and kittens need more care than their older pets. In the first weeks and months of life, puppies and kittens need more vaccines and preventative treatments than in adulthood. Our veterinarians will create a vaccination schedule for your new animal and recommend ways to ease your puppy or kitten into its new home.

Senior Wellness Checkup

Seniors often need frequent checkups. In fact, our vets may recommend that your pet come in two or three times per year to monitor your pet's changing health.

Parasite Prevention

Parasites can cause a lot of damage to your pet's health. However, preventative measures provided during wellness exams can help prevent parasite-related issues from affecting your cat or dog.

Dental Care

Pets, much like people, benefit from regular dental care. Your pet needs routine dental exams and cleanings to prevent infections and other painful conditions.

Nutritional Counseling

Pets often suffer from problems with their weight without the owners even realizing it. If our vets notice excessive weight gain or loss, this may be a sign of an underlying health issue occurring. We can create a healthy diet for your pet and recommend exercises to improve his or her weight.
