Chicago, Illinois: Village West Veterinary is pleased to announce the veterinary practice offers comprehensive adult puppy wellness preventive health exams to ensure the health and well-being of puppies. The full-service vet treats pets of all ages in a comfortable and secure environment.
As puppies get older, their health must be monitored regularly and maintained to prevent any conditions and diseases that could be detrimental. During these exams, the veterinarian and the staff will check for any underlying conditions and treat any issues that may have surfaced. Adult dogs should have at least two exams per year, depending on their age and condition. Older dogs should be examined three to four times per year.
During the wellness exam, the pet will be checked from head to tail through a detailed assessment where the pup’s vaccination record will be examined and preventive vaccines will be discussed. With complete diagnostic work, the pet’s blood, urine, and fecal samples will be examined to check for any diseases or parasites. The pup’s dental health will also be checked to ensure optimal oral health.
Before the exam, pet parents should inquire whether their dog should fast ahead of the visit and whether urine and fecal samples need to be brought in. The pet parent should also be prepared with pertinent information, such as the pet’s diet, medications and any changes in behavior or appetite.
