Muddy Creek Animal Care Center

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for dogs and cats, assessing overall health through temperature checks, eye/ear evaluations, dental inspections, skin assessments, heart/lung auscultation, and joint mobility. Our veterinarians customize recommendations based on age, breed, lifestyle, and medical history to ensure proactive care.

We offer tailored Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages that include vaccinations (core and lifestyle), deworming, microchipping, spay/neuter consultations, nutritional guidance, and early socialization advice. These packages are designed to set your young pet up for a lifetime of health.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care includes specialized exams, bloodwork (CBC/chemistry panels), urinalysis, and tailored recommendations for aging pets. We focus on early detection of conditions like arthritis, dental disease, diabetes, or organ dysfunction to improve quality of life.

We administer Core Vaccinations for dogs and cats, including rabies, distemper/parvovirus (for dogs), and feline distemper (FVRCP). These vaccines are essential for preventing serious diseases and are often required by law or boarding facilities.

We provide Heartworm Testing & Prevention through annual blood tests and prescription preventatives. Heartworm disease can be fatal, so we prioritize early detection and year-round protection for at-risk pets.

Our clinic offers Flea & Tick Prevention solutions tailored to your pet’s needs. We carry oral, topical, and chewable medications to protect against parasites that can cause discomfort, allergies, or serious diseases like Lyme.

We implant Microchips during wellness visits or surgeries and register them in national databases. This permanent ID increases the chances of reuniting lost pets with their families and is required for boarding/daycare participation.

Our veterinarians provide Nutritional Counseling to address dietary needs, weight management, or medical conditions (e.g., diabetes, kidney disease). We offer personalized feeding plans and recommend high-quality food options.

We perform Parasite Deworming for intestinal parasites like roundworms, hookworms, or tapeworms. Fecal testing is conducted to identify infections, and we prescribe safe, effective dewormers tailored to your pet’s age and health.

We offer Behavioral Counseling for common issues like anxiety, aggression, or house training problems. Our certified trainer (Katelyn Rollins) provides group classes, private sessions, and resources to improve pet-human relationships.

Our on-site lab performs In-House Bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and chemistry panels. These tests help diagnose infections, organ dysfunction, diabetes, or other hidden health issues during routine or senior exams.

We conduct Urinalysis to screen for urinary tract infections, kidney disease, crystals, or diabetes. This diagnostic tool is especially valuable for pets showing signs of straining, blood in urine, or increased thirst.

We require Fecal Testing for puppies/kittens in daycare/boarding and recommend it annually for adult pets. This test detects intestinal parasites (e.g., giardia, coccidia) to prevent zoonotic diseases or secondary infections.

Our clinic uses Digital X-Rays to diagnose fractures, arthritis, foreign objects, heart/lung conditions, or dental disease. Radiographs are performed in-house for quick results and tailored treatment plans.

During dental cleanings, we take Dental X-Rays to assess below-the-gum health. These images reveal abscesses, fractured teeth, or bone loss not visible during a visual exam, ensuring comprehensive oral care.

We perform Spay & Neuter Surgeries to prevent unwanted litters and reduce risks of cancers (e.g., mammary tumors), infections, or behavioral issues. Our team follows strict surgical protocols for safety and comfort.

For non-life-threatening emergencies outside regular hours, we offer Emergency Stabilization (e.g., lacerations, mild poisonings) before referring to specialty hospitals. Our goal is to provide immediate relief and safe transitions.

We develop Pain Management plans for pets recovering from surgery, chronic conditions (e.g., arthritis), or injuries. Options include oral medications, injections, laser therapy, or physical rehabilitation tailored to your pet’s needs.

Our Medical Grooming services address skin conditions with medicated baths (e.g., allergies, hot spots), sanitary trims for long-haired pets, or nail trimming/dremeling. We prioritize comfort and healing during grooming sessions.

We perform Anal Gland Expression to relieve impacted glands in dogs, a common cause of discomfort or scooting. This procedure is done during wellness exams or as needed to prevent infections or abscesses.

Our Standard Pet Boarding includes clean, climate-controlled facilities with daily walks (for dogs), fresh bedding, and individualized care. We accommodate dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and pocket pets with medical monitoring as needed.

We offer Doggie Daycare for socialized, vaccinated dogs (spayed/neutered by 8 months). Our supervised environment includes playtime, training reinforcement, and health checks to ensure safety and fun.

For domestic travel, we provide Domestic Travel Certificates verifying vaccinations (e.g., rabies) and health status. These are often required by airlines or states for seamless pet transportation.

During end-of-life discussions, we perform a Quality of Life Assessment using tools like the HHHHHMM scale to evaluate pain, mobility, appetite, and happiness. This helps guide compassionate decisions about treatment or euthanasia.
