Services
Pet Dental Care
Our veterinary team performs dental cleanings and treatments under sedation to address gum disease and tooth decay. We use advanced monitoring equipment for patient safety and include pre-anesthetic blood work for at-risk pets. Regular dental care prevents systemic health issues affecting the heart and kidneys while maintaining oral hygiene through professional cleanings and home care guidance.
Surgical Services
Traveling Tails offers routine and emergency surgical procedures in dedicated suites at both locations. Our staff conducts pre-operative screenings and utilizes ECG, blood pressure, and oxygen monitoring during operations. Services include spay/neuter surgeries, tumor removals, and orthopedic procedures performed by experienced veterinarians committed to minimizing patient discomfort and ensuring optimal recovery outcomes through post-operative care plans.
Pet Vaccinations
We administer core and lifestyle-based vaccines to protect pets against infectious diseases. Our vaccination protocols follow age-specific guidelines and include rabies, distemper, and feline leukemia immunizations. The wellness plans cover essential vaccines and booster schedules while our team provides tailored advice on disease prevention based on each pet's health status and exposure risks.
Spay and Neutering
This surgical procedure removes reproductive organs in pets to prevent overpopulation and reduce health risks. Female spaying eliminates uterine cancer risks while male neutering prevents testicular diseases. Our comprehensive package includes anesthesia, pain management, post-operative care instructions, and follow-up exams to ensure proper healing and long-term health benefits like reduced roaming behaviors.
Laboratory Diagnostics
Our in-house IDEXX laboratory equipment enables rapid blood work, urinalysis, and parasite screening for accurate health assessments. We perform pre-anesthetic testing, senior pet screenings, and disease-specific diagnostics like heartworm and thyroid function tests. Digital radiology supports dental evaluations while external lab partnerships handle complex analyses, ensuring comprehensive diagnostic capabilities for preventive and emergency care.
