Wellness Exams
Report
Why do Wellness Exams?
Why should you come in to our clinic once a year, even if your pet doesn't need a rabies shot?
Good question, and we have the answer.
Dogs and cats have shorter life spans than we do.
That means that they age more quickly.
Once mature, one year of our life equals about 4 years to them.
So it is crucial that your pet receives a yearly exam, even if they seem to be feeling good.
It is essential to pick up even small changes before they become a crisis for your pet, not only for the economic savings in treating a disease early, but in giving your pet the best quality life possible.

Surgery
Report
River Bend Animal Clinic offers state of the art surgery facilities with the best trained staff to ensure the best results and well being of your pet.
Why should I have my pet's surgery done at River Bend Animal Clinic instead of at one of the cheap spay/neuter clinics?
Good question.
On the surface, it seems that the same procedure is somewhat cheaper done at some of those clinics.
But let's look deeper to understand the difference in what you are getting.
It is definitely a situation of getting what you pay for in comparing our clinic's surgical care versus one of the "cheap" clinic's.

Boarding
Report
When you have to leave home without your pets there is no better place to leave them than in the care of your veterinarian.
Unlike a kennel, our boarding facility is under the care of two veterinarians and six staff members.
Reservations are suggested for almost all times.
Holiday periods are often fully booked two to three months in advance.
All boarders must be current on vaccinations.
If your pet is vaccinated somewhere other than River Bend Animal Clinic we must be able to confirm this.
The check-in procedure can take a little time to be sure we have all the information necessary to properly care for your pet.

Dental
Report
Periodontal disease is a preventable disease.
We have the knowledge and the tools to prevent it, yet many of the dogs and cats presented to veterinarians do not receive adequate treatment.
No longer do we recommend a wait-and-see attitude when our examination shows mild gingivitis and plaque accumulation.
An active approach to preventive dentistry is vital for optimal pet health, and also goes a long way to saving your money in the future.
Periodontal disease is divided into four stages.
Stage 1 is gingivitis.

Diet
Report
PET FOODS - The right diet for your pet.
In 1825 A famous man once said, "Tell me what you eat and I will tell you what you are".
The same holds true today, especially for our pets.
Many popular store bought foods are the nutritional equivalent to fast food.
There are many, many different brands on the shelf and choosing the right food is essential.
Not all pet foods are created equal.
Although the AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials) regulates pet food labels and feeding trials, there is no regulation regarding the digestibility of pet foods or the availability of nutrients once the food is digested.
