Chaska Valley Veterinary Clinic

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for pets of all ages to monitor their overall health, detect early signs of illness, and ensure they receive personalized care tailored to their needs. Our exams include evaluations of weight, dental health, mobility, and organ function, helping us create a proactive healthcare plan for your pet.

We offer specialized Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages designed to give your young pets the best start in life. These packages include vaccinations, deworming, microchipping, spay/neuter consultations, and nutritional guidance to support their growth and development while protecting them from common childhood illnesses.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care programs focus on early detection of age-related conditions like arthritis, diabetes, kidney disease, and dental issues. We recommend twice-yearly exams, bloodwork, and tailored care plans to help senior pets maintain comfort, mobility, and quality of life for as long as possible.

We provide essential Core Vaccinations such as Rabies, Distemper, and Parvo to protect your pet from life-threatening diseases. Our veterinarians follow current guidelines to ensure your pet receives the right vaccines at the appropriate intervals, tailored to their lifestyle and risk factors.

We perform annual Heartworm Testing and provide prevention medications to safeguard your pet against this deadly parasite. Heartworm disease can cause severe lung damage, heart failure, and even death, so prevention is critical for pets in heartworm-endemic areas or those exposed to mosquitoes.

Our clinic offers Flea & Tick Prevention treatments to protect your pet from parasites that can cause skin irritation, allergies, and serious diseases like Lyme disease. We provide monthly preventatives tailored to your pet’s size, lifestyle, and environmental risks.

We provide Microchipping & Registration services to ensure your pet can be identified and returned if they ever get lost. Microchipping is a quick, safe procedure, and we’ll help you register your pet’s information in national databases for maximum effectiveness.

Our veterinarians offer Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management to help your pet maintain a healthy weight and diet. We provide personalized recommendations for food, portion control, and lifestyle adjustments to prevent obesity-related diseases like diabetes and joint problems.

We perform Parasite Deworming to eliminate intestinal parasites like roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms, which can cause digestive issues, weight loss, and other health problems. Deworming is especially important for puppies, kittens, and pets with outdoor access.

Our team provides Behavioral Counseling to address common issues like anxiety, aggression, house training, and separation fears. We offer guidance on training techniques, environmental modifications, and, when needed, referrals to certified behaviorists for complex cases.

We conduct In-House Bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and Chemistry Panels, to diagnose illnesses, monitor chronic conditions, and assess organ function. Our in-house lab allows for quick results, so we can start treatment plans promptly during your visit.

We offer Urinalysis to evaluate your pet’s urinary health, helping us detect issues like infections, kidney disease, diabetes, or crystals. Early diagnosis allows us to manage these conditions effectively and prevent discomfort or complications.

Our Fecal Testing services screen for intestinal parasites, bacteria, and other pathogens that can cause gastrointestinal upset or long-term health problems. This simple test is a key part of preventive care, especially for pets with diarrhea or outdoor access.

We use Digital X-Rays (Radiography) to diagnose conditions like fractures, arthritis, heart disease, and abdominal issues. Our digital imaging provides high-quality, immediate results, allowing us to develop accurate treatment plans quickly.

During dental cleanings, we take Dental X-Rays to assess the health of your pet’s teeth roots, jawbone, and surrounding structures. This helps us identify hidden issues like tooth root infections, cysts, or fractures that aren’t visible during a regular exam.

Our veterinarians perform Tooth Extractions when necessary, such as for severely decayed, fractured, or diseased teeth. We use safe anesthesia and pain management protocols to ensure your pet’s comfort during and after the procedure.

We treat Periodontal Disease through professional cleanings, scaling, root planing, and, if needed, extractions or antibiotics. Early intervention can prevent tooth loss and systemic health issues linked to untreated periodontal disease.

We educate pet owners on At-Home Dental Care, including proper tooth brushing techniques, dental treats, and oral health monitoring. Starting dental care at home can reduce the frequency of professional cleanings and improve your pet’s long-term oral health.

We perform Spay & Neuter Surgery to prevent unwanted litters, reduce the risk of certain cancers, and minimize behavioral issues like roaming or marking. Our surgeries are performed with sterile techniques and include post-operative pain management for a smooth recovery.

We treat Wound & Laceration Repair with professional cleaning, suturing, and, when needed, advanced wound management techniques. Prompt treatment helps prevent infections and promotes faster healing for your pet.

We perform Bladder Stone Removal through minimally invasive surgery or cystotomy, depending on the size and type of stones. This procedure relieves pain, prevents urinary blockages, and improves your pet’s quality of life.

While we partner with South Metro Animal Emergency Care for after-hours emergencies, we provide initial Emergency Stabilization guidance and prepare pets for transfer if needed. Our team ensures your pet receives immediate care, including IV fluids, pain management, and wound treatment, before referral.

For pets requiring Oxygen Therapy, we provide supplemental oxygen to support respiration during emergencies, anesthesia recovery, or chronic conditions like heart or lung disease. Our clinic is equipped to monitor oxygen levels closely.

We administer IV Fluid Therapy to pets dehydrated from illness, surgery, or kidney disease. IV fluids help restore hydration, support organ function, and speed recovery during hospitalization or post-operative care.

We offer Pain Management for pets recovering from surgery, suffering from chronic conditions, or experiencing acute pain. Our protocols include medications, physical therapy, and monitoring to keep your pet comfortable and mobile.

In cases of Poison & Toxin Treatment, we provide immediate care, including induced vomiting (when safe), IV fluids, and supportive therapies. We also guide pet owners on contacting poison control centers and preparing for emergency veterinary care if needed.

We offer Medical Grooming services, such as Sanitary Shave, Nail Trimming & Dremeling, and Anal Gland Expression, to address health concerns like matted fur, overgrown nails, or impacted anal glands. These services help prevent infections and discomfort.

We provide Sanitary Shave services to keep your pet clean and comfortable, especially for pets with matted fur, skin infections, or those requiring post-surgical grooming. This helps prevent further irritation or infections.

Our Nail Trimming & Dremeling services ensure your pet’s nails are trimmed safely and comfortably. Overgrown nails can cause pain, joint issues, or even fractures, so regular maintenance is essential.

We perform Anal Gland Expression to relieve discomfort and prevent infections in pets with impacted anal glands. This quick procedure is often recommended for pets showing signs of scooting, licking, or straining.

We conduct Quality of Life Assessments to help pet owners evaluate their companion’s comfort, mobility, and happiness, especially in senior or chronically ill pets. This guides decisions about pain management, treatment options, or end-of-life care.

We provide Telemedicine Consultations for minor illnesses, medication refills, or follow-up care. These virtual visits save time and allow us to monitor your pet’s health remotely while offering guidance on at-home care.
