This lovely lady is Skyler who was in recently for her Annual Physical Exam. 
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!! This old saying could not be truer than when it comes to the health and well being of your pet. Preventative vaccinations cost a fraction of what it would cost to treat your pet if they contracted one of these potentially deadly and sometimes zoonotic (transmissible to humans) diseases. An annual physical exam for your pet could also be called a “Seven Year Physical Exam” because of their faster aging (i.e. one year of your dog or cat's life is equivalent to 7 years of human life). Imagine if you only went to your doctor every 7 years! An annual exam can detect underlying medical issues that your pet may have. Early detection could help treat or even reverse the disease process. Animals may mask their illness as a survival instinct, so even though your pet may not be showing any obvious outward signs of illness or pain, they can still be seriously ill. During the annual exam our Registered Veterinary Technicians will take a thorough history and will measure your pet's vital signs, and our veterinarians will perform a complete physical assessment. Diet, oral health and any concerns you may have will also be discussed. Please call us if you would like to book your pets Annual Physical Exam (905) 623-4431.
