Carroll County Animal Hospital - Columbia Drive

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for all pets, including puppies, adults, and seniors. Our experienced veterinarians assess overall health, detect early signs of disease, and create personalized care plans to ensure your pet remains in optimal condition.

We offer specialized Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages tailored for the first year of life. These packages include vaccinations, deworming, microchipping, spay/neuter consultations, and nutritional guidance to set your young pet up for a healthy future.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care focuses on proactive health management for aging pets. We provide geriatric screenings (bloodwork, urinalysis), pain management, dietary adjustments, and early detection of age-related conditions like heart disease, diabetes, or kidney issues to extend their quality of life.

We administer essential Core Vaccinations such as Rabies, Distemper, and Parvovirus to protect your pet from contagious and often fatal diseases. These vaccines are critical for puppies and adult pets to maintain immunity throughout their lives.

We provide Heartworm Testing & Prevention through annual screenings and year-round preventive medications. Heartworm disease is serious and potentially fatal; our proactive approach ensures your pet stays protected from mosquito-borne infections.

Our Flea & Tick Prevention programs include monthly treatments to eliminate parasites and protect your pet from diseases like Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, and tick paralysis. We offer tailored solutions for dogs and cats based on their risk factors.

We implant Microchips (permanent ID) during wellness visits or surgeries and register them in national databases to increase the chances of reuniting lost pets with their owners. Microchipping is a one-time procedure that lasts for life.

Our veterinarians offer Nutritional Counseling to address dietary needs, weight management, and chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney disease. We provide personalized meal plans, prescription diets, and obesity prevention strategies for optimal health.

We perform Parasite Deworming to treat and prevent intestinal parasites like roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, and tapeworms. Fecal testing is conducted during wellness exams to identify infections early and prescribe effective dewormers.

Our team provides Behavioral Counseling for pets exhibiting anxiety, aggression, or unwanted behaviors (e.g., excessive barking, separation anxiety). We offer training tips, medication recommendations if needed, and referrals to certified behaviorists for complex cases.

Our in-house lab performs In-House Bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and chemistry panels, to diagnose illnesses like infections, organ dysfunction, diabetes, or thyroid disorders. Quick results allow us to start treatment promptly.

We conduct Urinalysis as part of routine wellness exams and diagnostic workups to assess kidney function, detect urinary tract infections (UTIs), diabetes, or crystals. Early detection helps prevent serious complications in pets.

Our Fecal Testing service identifies intestinal parasites (e.g., giardia, coccidia) and ensures your pet’s safety from zoonotic diseases. We recommend annual fecal exams for all pets, especially those with digestive issues or exposure to wildlife.

We use Digital X-Rays to diagnose fractures, arthritis, tumors, bladder stones, and internal organ abnormalities. Our advanced radiography provides immediate results for faster treatment decisions during emergencies or chronic care.

Our clinic offers Ultrasound Imaging to evaluate abdominal organs (liver, kidneys, spleen), reproductive health, and cardiac conditions. Ultrasounds are non-invasive and provide real-time images for accurate diagnoses like heartworm disease or pregnancy.

Our Dental X-Rays reveal hidden dental problems such as fractured teeth, abscesses, or bone loss not visible during a visual exam. These radiographs guide our treatment plans for extractions, root canals, or periodontal disease management.

We provide Tooth Extractions for severely decayed, fractured, or diseased teeth under general anesthesia. Our team ensures a pain-free procedure and postsurgical care to promote healing and prevent infections.

Our veterinarians perform Oral Surgery, including tooth extractions, jaw fracture repairs, and tumor removals. We use advanced techniques and equipment to ensure minimal discomfort and rapid recovery for your pet.

We treat Periodontal Disease through deep cleanings, antibiotic therapy, and at-home care education. Advanced cases may require gum surgery or extractions to prevent tooth loss and systemic infections affecting other organs.

We educate pet owners on At-Home Dental Care, including brushing techniques, dental treats, water additives, and signs of oral disease. Proper home care extends the time between professional cleanings and improves your pet’s oral health.

We perform Spay & Neuter Surgery to prevent unwanted litters, reduce cancer risks (e.g., mammary tumors in females), and eliminate behaviors like roaming or marking. These procedures are safe, routine, and beneficial for pets of all ages.

We surgically remove Foreign Bodies ingested or lodged in pets (e.g., bones, toys, or splinters). Early intervention prevents complications like intestinal blockages or perforations, which can be life-threatening.

We perform C-Sections when natural birth is unsafe for the mother or puppies/kittens. Our team monitors high-risk pregnancies and provides emergency C-sections to ensure the health of both the dam and offspring.

We repair Wounds & Lacerations with sutures, staples, or advanced wound management techniques. Post-surgical care includes pain medication, bandaging, and infection prevention to promote healing.

Our surgeons remove Bladder Stones via cystotomy (surgical incision) when conservative treatments fail. We also analyze stones to identify underlying causes like urinary tract infections or dietary imbalances.

During emergencies, we provide Emergency Stabilization through IV fluids, oxygen therapy, pain management, and diagnostic testing (e.g., X-rays) to address critical conditions like trauma, poisoning, or organ failure.

We offer Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring for pets requiring intensive care post-surgery or during chronic illness management. Our team ensures continuous observation, medication administration, and comfort.

Our clinic provides Oxygen Therapy for pets with respiratory distress (e.g., pneumonia, heart disease) using oxygen cages or nasal catheters. This life-saving treatment stabilizes patients until underlying causes are addressed.

We administer IV Fluid Therapy to dehydrated pets or those with kidney disease, shock, or post-surgical recovery needs. Fluids restore hydration, electrolyte balance, and organ function under veterinary supervision.

Our Pain Management services include pre- and post-operative pain control, chronic condition management (e.g., arthritis), and alternative therapies like laser treatment. We tailor pain relief plans to your pet’s specific needs.

In case of Poison & Toxin Exposure, we induce vomiting, administer activated charcoal, or perform gastric lavage as needed. Our team monitors for symptoms like seizures, organ failure, and provides supportive care until toxins are eliminated.

We provide Medical Grooming for pets with skin conditions (e.g., allergies), mobility issues, or post-surgical recovery. Services include sanitary shaves, nail trims, and gentle handling to maintain hygiene without stress.

Our Sanitary Shave service is ideal for pets with matted fur, skin infections, or those requiring post-surgical cleanliness. We trim hair around wounds or sensitive areas to prevent irritation and aid healing.

We offer Nail Trimming & Dremeling to prevent overgrowth, which can cause pain or joint problems. Our gentle techniques ensure safety and comfort for anxious pets during grooming sessions.

We perform Anal Gland Expression to relieve impacted glands in dogs, a common issue causing discomfort or scooting behavior. This quick procedure prevents infections and improves your pet’s quality of life.

We provide Quality of Life Assessments for senior or chronically ill pets to evaluate pain, mobility, and happiness. This helps pet owners make informed decisions about treatment options or palliative care.

We offer Telemedicine Consultations for minor illnesses, medication refills, or follow-up care. This convenient option allows you to consult our veterinarians from home while monitoring your pet’s condition.
