Congratulations! Your puppy/kitten has made the transition from puppyhood/kittenhood into the adult years. Pets are good for you! They provide unconditional love and support, they help keep you young and active, they lower your blood pressure and help children do better in school. Pets age at a rate of 4-7 years for each human year.

We at Mission Veterinary Hospital want to help you enjoy these years to the fullest.  There are now studies proving that proper medical care and a good diet are helping pets live longer and more active lives. Early detection of problems is part of this trend.

This time in your pet's life should be healthy and carefree. However, did you know that 75% of organ function will be lost before you start to see the effects of kidney and liver disease?

Pets can get all the same diseases as people - including diabetes, cancer and other systemic diseases. They can also pass harmful parasites to your 2-legged family members. Ensure your whole family is as healthy as possible with our Adult Wellness Program.

Our Adult Pet Wellness Program includes:

• Complete nose to tail Physical Exam – performed twice yearly to detect hidden abnormalities. Includes all necessary vaccines and nail trims at time of exam.

• A fecal test - to rule out parasites that may be hazardous to your pet and your family.

• Age appropriate blood test - to screen for early kidney and liver disease.

•A full urinalysis - to test for stones or a bladder infection that you may not be aware your pet has.

• A Preferred Client Card – which saves you 10% off food, flea and deworming products, sick pet exams and dental procedures.
