Sploot Veterinary Care - Arvada

We provide personalized comprehensive physical exams for your pets to evaluate their overall health, catch early signs of disease, and establish a wellness baseline for preventive care.

We offer tailored wellness packages for puppies and kittens, including growth monitoring, developmental assessments, vaccination scheduling, deworming, and nutrition guidance.

Our senior pet wellness care includes specialized exams, geriatric screenings (like bloodwork and urinalysis), pain management evaluations, and care plans tailored to aging pets’ needs.

We administer all essential core vaccines for dogs (e.g., DAPP for distemper, parvovirus, parainfluenza) and cats (e.g., FVRCP for panleukopenia, rhinotracheitis, calicivirus) to protect against highly contagious and fatal diseases, including rabies (required by law).

We offer expert recommendations and treatments for flea and tick prevention, including topical, oral, and environmental control solutions to keep your pets protected year-round.

We provide microchipping & registration services during wellness visits or surgeries to ensure your pet can be safely returned if lost. Laparoscopic spay services also include microchipping as an optional add-on.

Our team provides personalized nutritional counseling, obesity assessments, and weight management plans tailored to your pet’s breed, age, and health status for optimal longevity.

We deliver comprehensive intestinal parasite deworming for puppies/kittens (starting at 2 weeks) and adults, adhering to species-specific dosing and retreatment schedules for optimal protection.

We address behavioral concerns like aggression, anxiety, phobias, and inappropriate elimination through consultations, training guidance, and—when necessary—referrals to behavioral medication (exploring options after non-pharmaceutical solutions are exhausted).

We perform in-house CBCs (complete blood counts) and chemistry panels for senior pets, pre-surgery screenings, disease monitoring, or unexplained symptoms to diagnose issues like organ dysfunction or infections promptly.

We offer urinalysis as part of wellness exams or diagnostic workups to screen for urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, and crystals in cats/dogs.

We provide fecal testing for gastrointestinal parasites (e.g., worms, coccidia) in puppies/kittens or pets with digestive symptoms to tailor deworming regimens.

We utilize digital radiography for orthopedic issues, foreign body detection, dental evaluations, and abdominal scans, with prompt interpretation by our veterinary team.

We employ ultrasound imaging to assess abdominal organs (e.g., liver, spleen), reproductive systems, and pregnancies, often in conjunction with other diagnostics.

We conduct allergy testing (e.g., intradermal skin tests, serology) to identify environmental or food triggers in pets with chronic itching, ear infections, or dermatological issues.

We take dental X-rays to diagnose hidden toothroot issues, abscesses, or retained baby teeth before extractions or root canals, enhancing accuracy during procedures.

Our team performs tooth extractions for fractured, decayed, or diseased teeth under anesthesia, using surgical tools like forceps, elevators, and dental drills as needed.

We conduct oral surgeries including periodontal therapy, exodontia (complex extractions), and tooth repair to address severe dental disease and restore oral health.

We treat periodontal disease with subgingival cleanings, antimicrobial rinses, and periodontal pockets evaluation to slow progression and preserve teeth in advanced cases.

We educate pet owners on at-home dental care, including tooth brushing techniques, dental diets, and oral health supplements to complement professional cleanings and prevent oral disease.

We perform spay (ovariohysterectomy) and neuter (castration) surgeries using Ligasure/electrocautery for minimal bleeding, laparoscopy (optional upgrade), and gold-standard anesthesia with one-on-one recovery monitoring and pain management.

We diagnose and surgically remove foreign bodies (e.g., swallowed objects, GI obstructions) via X-ray/ultrasound guidance, emergency laparotomies, or endoscopic retrieval.

We perform C-sections in emergencies or elective cases for dystocia, with neonate care, maternal stabilization, and postoperative monitoring to ensure survival for mother and kittens/pups.

We provide wound repair services, including suturing, stapling, drain placement, and advanced wound management for lacerations, abrasions, or postsurgical incisions.

We remove bladder stones (cystoliths) via surgical cystotomy under anesthesia, coupled with urinalysis/culture to identify cause and dissolution therapy if needed.

We provide emergency stabilization for trauma (e.g., hits-by-car), poisoning (e.g., xylitol, antifreeze), or severe illness, including IV fluids, oxygen therapy, and stabilization for transfer if needed.

We offer hospitalization services with 24/7 monitoring for postoperative patients, critical cases, or pets requiring IV fluids/nutrition, with dedicated recovery suites and veterinary supervision.

We provide oxygen therapy for pets in respiratory distress, post-anesthesia, or with conditions like pneumonia or collapsed tracheas using nasal cannulas or cages with humidity control.

We administer IV fluid therapy for dehydration, shock, kidney disease, or postoperative recovery with real-time monitoring of hydration status and electrolyte balance.

We tailor pain management protocols pre-/postoperatively with multimodal analgesia (opioids, NSAIDs, local anesthesia), cold laser therapy, and rehabilitation referrals as needed.

We treat pet poisoning from common toxins (e.g., xylitol, chocolate, lilies, rat poison) with decontamination, IV support, activated charcoal, and specific antidotes as indicated.

We provide medical grooming services, including sanitary shaves, nail trims, anal gland expressions, and medicated baths for dermatological conditions or restricted mobility.

We offer sanitary trims for pets with matted fur, skin infections, or post-surgical incisions to maintain hygiene and facilitate healing.

We trim and dremel nails (grind down hook tips) to prevent overgrowth, splitting, or injury, with a quiet drill to minimize stress and post-trimming hemostasis management.

We perform anal gland expressions for impacted glands in dogs suffering from discomfort, scooting, or licking, with manual extraction and lubrication to address underlying causes like diarrhea.

We offer cold laser therapy as an add-on post-surgery or for pain/inflammation, promoting tissue repair, reducing swelling, and accelerating recovery after procedures like spays or dental work.

We provide quality of life (QoL) assessments for aging or chronically ill pets, utilizing validated scales (e.g., HHHHHMM) to guide palliative care discussions and euthanasia decisions with compassion.

While we do not perform at-home euthanasia, we educate pet parents on at-home options and can provide consultations to guide them through this process.

We offer telemedicine consultations for non-emergency concerns, minor ailments, or prescription refills via video/text to expedite care and monitor pets remotely.
