HOW TO PREPARE YOUR PET

HOW TO PREPARE

If you've been prescribed anti-anxiety medication for your pet by the veterinarian please try to give them the medication approximately 2-3 hrs before the appointment.

Establish a well-lit area and calm setting to help our team exam your pet.

Annual Exams or diarrhea sick visits require fecal samples. If you are collecting fecal matter, the sample must be kept cold and should be taken as close to your appointment time as possible. We recommend placing it in a double-sealed bag prior to refrigeration.
