Ocean Avenue Veterinary Hospital

Your pet's annual vet visit will include a complete physical examination, including a thorough examination of your pet's head, body, and tail, as well as all of their internal organs. An annual cleaning by your veterinarian may be necessary because even the most docile pet may resist tooth and gum brushing. Your pet's teeth, like yours, can be lost due to deterioration and neglect. It's a good idea to keep a detailed medical journal that includes not just the surgeries and immunizations your pet has at the veterinarian, but also notes on things like your pet's elimination habits and any physical changes or unexpected events. Keep track of subtle changes in your pet's behavior, such as urinary marking patterns and mood swings, and report them to your veterinarian.
