Caring for Senior Pets

Because pets age so much faster than people, they are classified as “seniors” once they are about seven years old.

Once your pet becomes a senior, their needs will start changing. They may become less active, and their diet will need to be adjusted accordingly to prevent obesity.

Because seniors are more susceptible to disease, it’s crucial to bring them in for wellness exams. Doing so allows our veterinarians to watch for early signs of illness and start treatment for problems right away. It’s not always easy to determine if your pet is exhibiting the normal signs of aging or if an underlying health problem is to blame for behavior changes. Routine examinations and blood work help us eliminate the guesswork and ensure that your four-legged family member remains healthy and by your side for as many years as possible.
