Services
We offer a variety of services, to keep your pet well, and to care for him/her during times of illness. With all of these services, we provide you with the education you need to make an informed decision, and to keep your pet at the highest level of wellness possible. Some of these services include: 
Annual Wellness ExaminationRoutine physical exams are performed to insure the health of your pet. Lifetime care is available from puppy or kitten to the senior years. Wellness care is recommended based on the Life Stage of your pet.
Vaccinations
Vaccinations are necessary
for the health of your pet. A Rabies vaccine is required for all dogs and
cats in the state of Maryland. Based on the physical examination, the doctor
will make recommendations that are specifically tailored for your pet.
We recommend annual testing, and
the use of Interceptor for year-round protection against heartworm disease
as well as several other intestinal parasites for all dogs.
Microchips
We offer the
"Home Again" as a permanent way to identify pets.
Health Certificates
Our doctors are well
versed in the complicated travel protocols needed to go to rabies free areas
outside of the continental United States, such as Great Britain and Hawaii.
This painless procedure
uses sound waves to examine specific internal organs. Pregnancy exams are
also available.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been used
for over 5,000 years to treat various conditions that may affect health or
mobility. We like to think of it as a complementary service for your pet to
be used in addition to or instead of drugs. It is most commonly associated
with conditions resulting in pain, such as osteoarthritis or intervetebral
disc disease in pets.
Emergency Care
We care for an emergency
with your pet during the hours we are open. If there is an emergency when we
are closed, we can direct you to a nearby Emergency Center that will meet
your needs.
Emergency Care Centers
Specialized CareAt times, we may need to refer your pet to a specialist for care. In that case, our doctors have excellent working relationships with many other veterinary specialists, and will communicate with them, and vice versa, to provide continuity of care
Retail Sales
We have prescription diets
available from Hill’s, Eukanuba, Purina, and Royal Canin (Formerly Waltham
and IVD). We also carry flea and tick products, and dental care products. If
we do not carry a food in our display area, we will special order it for
you.
Pharmacy
We stock a variety of veterinary drugs, and are also able
to obtain hard to find drugs from a local compounding company.
The Grooming Room for Pets
It is right next
door to us. If your dog is being groomed, you can make arrangements for
him/her to be seen as needed for any wellness needs , such as exams or
vaccinations.
