Bit & Spur Animal Hospital

We conduct thorough physical exams during every visit, focusing on early detection of lumps, swelling, or abnormalities that could indicate cancer. Regular exams are essential for monitoring changes in your pet’s health, especially as they age.

We administer core vaccinations as part of routine wellness care, including annual exams for pets under 7 years old and bi-annual exams for seniors. These vaccines help prevent infectious diseases that may weaken immune function or contribute to cancer risk.

We perform comprehensive in-house bloodwork to monitor organ function and detect early signs of disease. This is particularly valuable for senior pets or those undergoing cancer treatment, allowing us to tailor care based on real-time lab results.

Our clinic offers digital radiography to diagnose bone tumors, internal masses, and other abnormalities. Early detection through X-rays helps us identify issues like limb pain, swelling, or abdominal growths that may indicate cancer.

We utilize ultrasound imaging (sonography) as a key diagnostic tool in oncology and internal medicine. This non-invasive technology helps us detect abdominal tumors, assess organ health, and guide treatment decisions for early cancer detection or monitoring.

Our clinic offers dental X-rays to identify hidden oral cancers, periodontal disease, or tooth root abnormalities. Regular dental imaging is critical for early detection of mouth tumors that may otherwise go unnoticed.

We provide oral surgery for pets with malignant cancers in the mouth, such as tumors or growths causing pain or difficulty eating. Early intervention through dental X-rays and professional cleanings also helps detect oral health issues before they worsen.

We recommend and perform spay/neuter surgeries to reduce the risk of mammary gland (breast) tumors in pets. Spaying before the first heat cycle significantly lowers cancer risk, especially for female dogs and cats.

We provide advanced oncology treatments, including chemotherapy and radiation therapy, to combat cancer in pets. Our team works closely with clients to develop personalized treatment plans that combine cutting-edge medical care with compassionate support for both the pet and their family.
