Preventive Care

• Dental Care
  Oral hygiene is extremely important to the overall health of your pet and care needs to be provided to keep the mouth healthy. Oral hygiene starts at home with regular brushing, proper chew toys, and special treats for keeping gums and teeth healthy. However, significant tartar and plaque build up on teeth after the first couple of years and can cause significant disease by three to four years of age if proper care is not maintained.
• Vaccination
  Cat and dog vaccinations protect pets against dangerous and potentially lethal diseases. Because of vaccines, many animal diseases have been contained in the last 100 years. At one time, feline distemper was the leading cause of disease in cats, but today it’s relatively uncommon. Rabies is still prevalent in wildlife and is one of several diseases that can be passed to people. Annual vaccination against rabies is required by law. At Georgetown Veterinary Hospital, we work to give our patients complete protection.
