Pet Dental Care
Maintaining your pet's dental health is crucial for their overall well-being. At Feather River Veterinary Hospital, we understand that regular dental care can significantly extend your pet’s life. During routine wellness exams, we thoroughly check your pet’s teeth and gums for any issues, including abscesses, fractured teeth, bite alignment, jaw injuries, enamel damage, and tartar buildup.
Preparing for General Anesthesia
Before any dental procedures, we ensure that your pet is fit for general anesthesia, which may require precautionary blood work. Throughout dental cleanings and treatments, your pet is monitored closely by a veterinarian and a technician, ensuring their safety and comfort. We use the highest quality care and state-of-the-art techniques, continuously monitoring vital signs, administering IV fluids, and providing pain medication when necessary. Regular dental care helps you and your pet avoid unnecessary pain and discomfort from dental issues.
Veterinary Surgery
When surgery is necessary, Feather River Veterinary Hospital offers various surgical options tailored to your pet’s needs. Our surgical services include abscess removal, soft tissue surgeries, spay/neuter procedures, aural hematoma repairs, laceration repairs, tumor removals, and orthopedic surgeries. We prioritize the safety and comfort of your pet, monitoring anesthesia closely throughout the procedure.
Before the Surgery
Before any surgical intervention, we recommend pre-anesthetic blood tests to ensure your pet is healthy enough for surgery. Intravenous (IV) fluids are administered to keep your pet hydrated and warm during the procedure. Our experienced team works closely with a board-certified veterinary surgery specialist for certain procedures, ensuring your pet receives the best care and quality aftercare.
Digital Radiography
Our state-of-the-art digital radiography services enable us to diagnose health conditions quickly and efficiently. This technology allows us to see the images instantly, ensuring minimal discomfort for your pet. The digital images can be easily enlarged to reveal fine details and can be transmitted rapidly if a specialist's input is needed.
Veterinary Care for Senior Pets
As pets age, their health needs change. At Feather River Veterinary Hospital, we recognize the unique challenges faced by senior pets and offer tailored care to keep them comfortable and healthy. We emphasize preventive steps to help maintain their health, including regular blood work to monitor conditions such as arthritis, kidney and liver function, heart disease, diabetes, and more. Our senior wellness plans may include dietary supplements and special nutrition and exercise recommendations. We work with you to ensure your pet continues to participate actively in family life.
Veterinary Wellness Practices
Preventative health care is a top priority at Feather River Veterinary Hospital. We recommend routine wellness examinations twice a year, regardless of your pet's age. These comprehensive check-ups allow us to examine your pet thoroughly and determine if any vaccinations are due. Routine blood work can help establish baseline health data for your pet, making it easier to identify any potential issues in the future. During every visit, we conduct an oral examination to assess your pet’s dental health, addressing any concerns promptly.
Nutritional Counseling
Maintaining your pet's ideal weight is vital for their health. An overweight pet is at risk for conditions like diabetes, joint disease, and arthritis. Our team can help you determine the ideal weight for your pet based on their breed and size. If your pet is underweight, it may indicate underlying health issues. Conversely, weight gain can signal serious health problems. We provide nutritional plans that establish good eating habits, including guidelines on caloric intake and feeding frequency. Regular veterinary check-ups and adherence to a nutritional plan will keep your pet healthier and happier for years to come.
