Pet Wellness for Senior Pets (Geriatric Care)
Is your beloved pet entering their golden years? At Vet Arlington TX, we understand that senior pets require special attention and care to ensure they live their later years in comfort and health. Our Pet Wellness for Senior Pets service is designed to meet the unique needs of aging dogs and cats, providing them with comprehensive care tailored to their stage of life.
Why Senior Pet Wellness is Important
As pets age, they undergo various physiological changes that can affect their overall health. Just like humans, senior pets are more prone to certain conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, kidney disease, and dental issues. Regular wellness checks are crucial to catch these conditions early and manage them effectively.
Comprehensive Geriatric Care
At Vet Arlington TX, our geriatric care program includes:
-
Thorough Physical Examinations: Regular check-ups are essential to monitor your pet’s health. We perform detailed assessments to detect any changes in their condition.
-
Diagnostic Testing: We offer blood work, urine tests, and other diagnostics to identify potential health issues before they become serious.
-
Nutritional Counseling: Senior pets often need dietary adjustments. Our experts will help you choose the right nutrition plan to support your pet’s health.
-
Pain Management: Managing pain is a priority in senior care. We provide safe and effective solutions to ensure your pet remains comfortable.
-
Mobility Support: Arthritis and joint issues are common in older pets. We offer therapies and products to improve mobility and quality of life.

Every pet is unique, and so are their health needs. Our wellness programs are customized to suit the specific requirements of your senior pet.
