Services
Dentistry
We specialize in comprehensive dental care addressing periodontal disease that affects 80% of dogs and 70% of cats. Our services include oral examinations, teeth cleaning, and treatment of dental pathologies. By connecting oral health to systemic wellness, we help prevent infections that could spread throughout pets' bodies through early detection and intervention.
Acupuncture
This ancient Chinese practice stimulates specific body points to achieve healing effects. We use acupuncture to manage chronic conditions like arthritis and digestive issues. By integrating this therapy with conventional treatments, we provide enhanced pain management and improved quality of life for pets with long-term health challenges.
Vaccinations
We offer complete vaccination protocols for puppies and kittens following standardized schedules. Our program includes distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, rabies, and feline leukemia vaccinations. We tailor immunization plans to each pet's lifestyle while emphasizing core vaccinations that prevent life-threatening diseases in Michigan's pet population.
Laser Therapy
Our photobiomodulation therapy reduces inflammation and accelerates healing for various conditions. This non-invasive treatment effectively manages post-surgical recovery, osteoarthritis, and chronic pain. By delivering specific light wavelengths to target tissues, we promote cellular regeneration while minimizing discomfort for pets undergoing treatment.
Ozone Therapy
We administer ozone therapy to treat infections, inflammation, and chronic diseases. This treatment enhances immune function through cytokine stimulation while effectively inactivating pathogens. We use multiple administration methods to address conditions like cancer, autoimmune disorders, and chronic ear infections, offering a powerful adjunct to conventional medical approaches.

Questions
When should I spay or neuter my pet?
Spaying/neutering is recommended at 6 months old to prevent roaming, reduce cancer risks, and control pet population.
How does heartworm prevention work?
We require negative heartworm tests before starting prevention and recommend year-round protection against mosquito-borne infections.
What are microchipping benefits?
Microchips provide permanent identification that increases pet recovery chances if lost, functioning like a permanent vaccination tag.

FeLV spreads through cat-to-cat contact involving saliva, blood, or shared resources like food bowls and litter boxes.
