Pet Wellness Exams in Hudson, NC

PETS CAN DEVELOP HEALTH PROBLEMS, JUST LIKE HUMANS CAN. THAT’S WHY WE RECOMMEND

Annual Exams

at our hospital so we can make sure your pet is healthy or provide treatment if we detect signs of illness.

We know you love your pet and want them to be well. Here at Hudson Animal Hospital, we want the same thing. That’s why we recommend that you bring them in at least once a year for an annual exam if they’re an adult. For puppies, kittens, and senior pets, we recommend more frequent visits. Our wellness services are designed to examine your pet, help prevent illnesses, create a health baseline for reference at future visits, and provide any necessary treatments. They include the comprehensive wellness exam, vaccinations, laboratory testing, and advanced diagnostics.

About the Wellness Exam

The comprehensive wellness exam is the most popular service we provide for our patients. During this essential visit, we’ll examine your pet’s eyes, ears, joints, teeth, skin, coat, body condition, abdomen, and vital signs. We’ll also weigh your pet and let you know whether they’re overweight, underweight, or at the ideal weight for their breed. We can also test for intestinal parasites if you bring in a fresh stool sample.

Vaccinations are another important component of the wellness visit. Vaccines protect pets against potentially serious viruses and diseases and need to be updated regularly, just like vaccines for humans. The exact vaccines that we recommend for each patient varies and depends on their age and lifestyle. Visit our Pet Vaccinations page to learn more.

We encourage you to ask us any questions you have about your pet’s health and how to best care for them at home. Important topics to consider include diet, exercise, training, and year-round parasite prevention. Our goal is to educate and empower you to be the most responsible pet owner you can be so your pet can live a long, happy, healthy life.
