Deworming Treatment
One dose of a broad spectrum anti-parasitic gastrointestinal medication. This does not cover all GI parasites and additional doses may be necessary for certain types of parasites.

Heartworm Test 
This test evaluates your dog for the presence of adult heartworms. Heartworms are spread by mosquito bites. It takes 6 months for a baby larval worm to develop into a mature adult heartworm. Therefore, this test is not recommended in dogs/puppies less than 6 months of age. The American Heartworm Association recommends that your dog be tested yearly for this parasite.

Ear Flush/Cleaning
This procedure is intended for dogs and cats with moderate to severe ear infections. It involves a deep cleaning and flushing of debris from the ears, preparing the canals for medication for the infection. This is often performed to demonstrate how to perform a proper ear cleaning at home, so that you may learn to do this for your pet on a routine basis.

Nail Trim
Your pet’s nails are trimmed back as far back as we can cut them. Some patients have very long quicks and frequent nail trims are necessary to groom toenails to the appropriate length.

Express Anal Glands
This is a common procedure performed for dogs and cats that have difficulty expressing their anal glands. Patients don’t always show signs that they need this performed, however, the most common behavior we see associated with full anal glands is discomfort over the rear end, scooting their rear end and licking and chewing at the anus. Some patients never need this performed and some need it done every month.

Microchip
This involves implanting a microchip in your pet, just beneath the skin between the shoulders. The chip holds a number readable by a scanner, which can help identify your contact information in the case your pet becomes lost. This service includes the registration fee involved with activating the chip.
