Small Animal Services
Small Animal Medicine refers to the treatment and diagnosis of smaller animals, such as dogs and cats, but also many other species of animals.
Our Wayside Staff is trained and experienced in how to care for your dogs and cats. Working with animals is our passion and we strive to provide the highest level of care possible for your pets.
Our Small Animal Services include:
Wellness Exams
At Wayside Veterinary Clinic in Rossville, IN , we believe that regular checkups and wellness exams are critical to your pets’ well-being. These wellness exams give us a chance to evaluate the overall health of your pet while also giving us a baseline for their unique bodies and tendencies.
Not only do these exams keep us up-to-date with your pets’ health, but they also allow us to detect potential problems before they become serious. This thorough checkup gives us vital information to help keep your pet healthy!
Microchipping
It is important to keep your pet properly identified. The best way to permanently identify your pet is with a microchip. The microchip is injected under your pet’s skin, between the shoulder blades. The entire procedure is similar to a vaccination and takes less than 10 seconds.
With a microchip, your pet can be identified quickly and easily by animal control officers, shelters or at veterinary hospitals. Microchips are safe, unalterable and permanent identification for pets.
Dental Care
Caring for your pet’s teeth is an important part of it’s overall health. The build-up of tartar and plaque can cause serious damage in addition to causing foul smelling breath. Having regular dental cleanings and oral check ups can help your pet stay healthy throughout it’s life.
Orthopedic Surgery
We offer a variety of solutions and treatments for your pets’ orthopedic issues. We understand that orthopedic problems can be a big challenge for both pets and pet owners so we are dedicated to working with you and communicating with you throughout the process.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about our orthopedic capabilities or how we can care for your pet, please contact us today at (765) 379-2226.
Puppy and Kitten Care
Getting a new puppy or kitten is very exciting. You have a lot to look forward to. The great companionship that a good pet can bring is very rewarding. However, puppies and kittens come with a lot of responsibility and work. Here at Wayside Veterinary Clinic, we are here to help you with your new addition.
First, you should always bring your new puppy or kitten in for a full nose-to-tail examination to make sure that you have a healthy new animal. You also want to get him or her familiar with our veterinary hospital.
