Did you know that most dogs are considered seniors when they reach seven years of age? For cats, it’s around nine. Pets age more rapidly than humans, which means diseases and illnesses progress more quickly as well.
The good news is dogs and cats are living longer today thanks to advances in veterinary medicine. While older pets are faced with more age-related conditions like arthritis and diabetes that impact the quality of their lives, we are here to partner with you to help your pet age well. Plus, we can recommend diet modification and supplements to help maintain your older pet’s mental sharpness.
Preventative care is very important for our older patients, which is why we recommend exams with regular lab work at least twice a year for our senior companions.
To schedule your senior pet for a visit, give us a call at (406) 333-7001 or book a visit online.
