Senior Pet Care
How your pet's needs change.
Senior Wellness Care for Dogs and Cats
Pleasant Hills Pet Hospital specializes in Senior Wellness Visits for your dog or cat to help your pet live a long and happy life.
Geriatric pets can develop many of the same problems seen in older people, such as:
- Cancer
- Heart Disease
- Kidney/Urinary Tract Disease
- Liver Disease
- Diabetes
- Joint or Bone Disease
- Dementia
- Weakness
Our Senior Wellness Program
Your pet's Wellness Senior Exam includes the following:
- Physical Exam by the Veterinarian
- Blood Pressure Test
- Urinalysis
- A urinalysis can detect diseases such as diabetes, kidney disease and infections of the urinary tract.
- The urinalysis can provide information not only about the kidneys and bladder, but other organs. In addition to helping us make a diagnosis, a urinalysis is also helpful in determining a prognosis (a forecast of the outcome of the disease) and response to treatment.
Call us at (412) 655-8710 today if you'd like to schedule your senior pet's next visit.
