Your senior pet looks healthy, but despite their familiar tail wag and happy-go-lucky nature, they could be suffering from a hidden illness.

Age-related health changes are rarely noticeable until pets are severely affected. By then, treatment is often less successful—or unavailable.

Preventive senior pet blood work can pinpoint concerning changes sooner, giving your veterinarian more time to intervene—and giving you and your pet more time together.

🐾 It’s time for the truth about your senior pet’s health. Ask for blood work at their next visit!

Big news—Dr. Branch has joined our crew! 🐶😺

Dr. Branch received her Bachelor of Science with First Class Honors in Psychology from the University of East London before moving to Scotland to complete her veterinary degree at the University of Glasgow School of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery.

She then expanded her hands-on husbandry experience across a wide variety of species, from companion animals and small mammals to exotics like jaguars and lemurs. Her professional interests include soft tissue surgery and animal behavior.

Outside of work, Dr. Branch is a lifelong animal rescue volunteer who devotes much of her free time to caring for her local community cats and pigeons. Proudly embracing the title of “crazy cat lady”, she has three cats at home, two of which are special-needs, as well as a senior shih tzu.

Is your senior pet in pain? It may be difficult to tell—unless you know how to spot it. Chronic or ongoing pain, such as that caused by arthritis, can influence your pet’s physical activity, mood, and behavior. If you notice your senior pet moving or acting abnormally, contact us to schedule an appointment.
