Services
Vaccinations
Our vaccination program follows core and lifestyle-based protocols to prevent diseases in dogs and cats. We offer Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvo, Rabies, and Feline Leukemia vaccines. Optional Lyme, Corona, and Influenza vaccines get tailored to your pet's environment. Our team educates owners about proper immunization schedules during wellness visits.
Dental Care
Comprehensive dental services include anesthetic cleanings, periodontal treatment, and digital radiography. Our experts examine oral structures, perform extractions when needed, and administer pain management. We emphasize preventive care to avoid systemic health issues from untreated dental disease in 80% of dogs and 70% of cats over age two.
In-House Laboratory
We conduct complete blood counts, serum chemistry panels, urinalysis, and parasite screenings on-site. Fast results enable prompt diagnosis for conditions like pancreatitis, heartworm, and tick-borne diseases. Feline leukemia/FIV testing and fungal skin evaluations support immediate treatment decisions for critically ill pets.
Laser Therapy
Non-invasive laser treatments address pain from arthritis, injuries, and post-surgical recovery. This drug-free option reduces inflammation and stimulates healing for pets with chronic conditions. Sessions complement traditional treatments while improving mobility and quality of life for aging animals.
Wellness Plans
Colonial Care Plans offer flexible options for adult pets and puppies/kittens with routine exams, vaccines, and dental cleanings. Members receive copay benefits, multiple-pet discounts, and payment plans starting at $57/month.
