What Does Senior Pet Care Include?

Senior pet care is designed to address older pets’ unique challenges and needs. At Animal Care Center of Pahrump, we offer a range of services tailored to support your pet as they enter their golden years.

Senior Pet Wellness Exams

Regular wellness exams are essential for senior pets. We recommend bringing your pet in at least twice a year for these check-ups. During these visits, our veterinarians will evaluate your pet’s overall health and monitor for common age-related conditions such as:

Organ Dysfunction: Regular exams help detect issues with organs like the liver and kidneys early on.

Cataracts: We assess your pet’s vision and monitor for signs of cataracts or other eye problems.

Cancer: Early detection of tumors or abnormal growths can lead to more effective treatment.

Chronic Joint Problems: We look for signs of arthritis or other joint issues that often affect older pets.

Senior Pet Dentistry

Dental health is crucial for senior pets. As pets age, they become more susceptible to periodontal disease, leading to infections and tooth loss. Our dental care services include:

Routine Cleanings: We perform dental cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup.

Gum Health Checks: We monitor and treat gum disease to prevent further complications.

Home Care Advice: We guide your pet’s dental health at home.
