Wellness Visits

Regular wellness exams are an important part of keeping your pet healthy and happy. Our experienced veterinarians conduct thorough physical examinations with each wellness checkup to develop a health profile for your pet. This will help detect early signs of illnesses that may not be visible at home and address other health concerns before they get worse.

Vaccinations

Pets are vulnerable to viruses and other germs they can catch from other animals or just from going outside. Many of these diseases can make pets very sick and some, such as rabies, can be deadly. Pet vaccines in LaPlace safely allow your pet to develop natural immunity to these illnesses.

Protect your furry friend from harmful parasites

Dogs are naturally curious explorers, venturing into the great outdoors and socializing with other pets. While curiosity is great, it also increases their risk of contracting harmful parasites like fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites like heartworm disease, round worms, hookworms, whipworms, and tapeworms, just to name a few.

With dogs’ active lifestyles, relying on other treatments leaves gaps in their protection. To protect your pet’s well-being, ask your veterinarian about giving your pet a broad spectrum of coverage.
