Shepherds Vineyard Animal Hospital

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams during wellness appointments, checking weight, vital signs, ears, nose, eyes, mouth, abdomen, and joints to ensure your pet’s overall health and mobility. Our exams are a cornerstone of preventative care, helping us identify early signs of potential issues and tailor a health plan for your pet.

We offer specialized Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages (Puppy Care Plus and Kitten Care Plus) designed for pets 6 months and younger. These plans include unlimited office visits, multiple Comprehensive Physical Exams, core and lifestyle vaccinations, parasite screenings, dewormings, heartworm testing, nutritional counseling, and spay/neuter services at an affordable monthly rate.

We provide essential Core Vaccinations, including Rabies, Distemper, and Parvo (DA2PP for dogs and FVRCP for cats), as part of our wellness and puppy/kitten packages. These vaccinations are critical for protecting your pet from serious, often life-threatening diseases and are tailored to your pet’s age and lifestyle.

We offer Heartworm Testing & Prevention as part of our wellness services, including annual heartworm tests and preventive medications to protect your pet from this potentially fatal disease. Heartworm prevention is a key component of our puppy and adult wellness packages.

While not explicitly detailed in the provided pages, we strongly emphasize parasite prevention as part of our wellness care. Flea & Tick Prevention is recommended and discussed during exams, though specific products or programs may require further inquiry.

We provide Microchipping & Registration services to ensure your pet can be identified and returned if lost. Microchipping is a permanent and safe way to secure contact information for your pet’s entire life.

Our Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management services include personalized diet recommendations and weight assessments during wellness exams. We help pet owners make informed decisions about their pet’s food, portion sizes, and lifestyle adjustments to maintain a healthy weight.

We provide In-House Bloodwork, including Complete Blood Count (CBC) and Chemistry Panels, as part of our wellness and pre-surgical evaluations. Bloodwork helps us monitor your pet’s organ function, detect underlying conditions, and ensure they are healthy for procedures like spay/neuter or dental cleanings.

We offer Urinalysis as part of our diagnostic services to evaluate kidney function, detect urinary tract infections, and monitor overall health. This test is often recommended during annual wellness exams or when symptoms suggest urinary issues.

We utilize Digital X-Rays (Radiography) for diagnostic imaging, including dental X-rays, orthopedic evaluations, and abdominal scans. X-rays help us assess fractures, dental disease, heart size, and other internal conditions requiring detailed imaging.

We take Dental X-Rays during professional cleanings to identify hidden dental issues like root infections, fractures, or tooth decay that aren’t visible during a visual exam. These X-rays guide our treatment plans for extractions or other dental procedures.

We perform Tooth Extractions when necessary to treat severe dental disease, fractures, or painful teeth identified during exams or X-rays. Extractions are done under anesthesia to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety.

We provide Spay & Neuter Surgery as part of our wellness services, included in our puppy and kitten wellness packages. These procedures help prevent unwanted litters, reduce health risks like certain cancers, and improve your pet’s overall quality of life.
