Our Cassville veterinarian checks vital signs, listens to your pet’s heart and lungs, examines their eyes and ears, assesses dental health, and palpates their abdomen to feel for abnormalities. The exam also includes evaluating your pet’s body condition, joint mobility, and skin health. These detailed exams often reveal minor problems pet owners don’t notice at home, allowing us to address concerns before they progress.
We provide personalized wellness recommendations based on your pet’s health status, age, breed, and lifestyle. Puppies and kittens need more frequent visits to establish vaccination schedules and monitor growth. Adult pets typically benefit from annual wellness exams to keep an eye on their ongoing health. Since health needs change more rapidly as pets age, we recommend twice-yearly visits for senior dogs and cats over seven years old.
