Big Thompson Animal Hospital

We provide comprehensive physical exams at each visit to check all major body systems including heart, lungs, skin, ears, eyes, joints and teeth. These wellness exams confirm that your pet shows no sign of infectious or congenital problems and is healthy enough to be vaccinated.

We keep your canine or feline up to date on vaccinations which is a highly effective way to prevent many common diseases and infections like distemper and deadly rabies. Core vaccines include rabies, distemper, parvovirus, parainfluenza, leptospirosis, and kennel cough.

We can recommend parasite prevention to suit your pet’s needs and your budget. Preventing fleas, ticks, and worms in the first place is much easier than getting rid of them after they've infested your pet.

We encourage all pet owners to microchip their animal companions as it greatly increases the chances that your pet will be returned to you if lost. It’s also affordable and relatively painless.

We can help you figure out what is best for your particular pet and lifestyle when it comes to proper nutrition. There's so much confusion about what to feed companion animals, wet food, dry food, home-cooked or raw.

We deworm for the most common intestinal parasites at each visit and check a stool sample for hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms. Some of these parasites can be transferred to humans so it is important to catch them early.
