Byland Animal Hospital: Mickley Owen DVM

We provide thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for pets of all ages, including evaluations of major organ systems and discussions about behavior, diet, and lifestyle. These exams help us detect early signs of illness or subtle changes in your pet’s health before they become serious.

We offer tailored Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages to ensure your new pet starts life on the right foot. This includes a full physical exam, vaccination series (e.g., parvo for puppies and feline leukemia for kittens), deworming, and flea/tick/heartworm prevention education.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care includes specialized exams to address age-related changes in health. We recommend routine bloodwork, diagnostic testing, and adjustments to nutrition or medication as needed to ensure your senior pet’s comfort and longevity.

We provide essential Core Vaccinations, including rabies, distemper, and parvo, to protect pets from deadly diseases. Rabies vaccination is legally required in Ohio and critical for public safety.

We offer Heartworm Testing & Prevention programs to detect and protect against heartworm disease, a serious condition transmitted by mosquitoes. Annual testing is recommended for all pets on prevention medication.

Our clinic provides Flea & Tick Prevention solutions tailored to your pet’s needs, including oral and topical treatments to protect against parasites that can cause illness or transmit diseases like Lyme disease.

We provide Nutritional Counseling & Weight Management services to help pets maintain a healthy weight and diet, especially important for senior pets or those with chronic conditions. Customized feeding plans are discussed during wellness exams.

As part of our parasite control programs, we offer Parasite Deworming for intestinal parasites like roundworms and hookworms. Deworming is especially critical for puppies/kittens and pets with diarrhea or unexplained weight loss.

We perform In-House Bloodwork, including complete blood counts (CBCs) and chemistry panels, to diagnose illnesses, monitor chronic conditions, or screen senior pets. Results are available quickly during your visit.

Our clinic offers Urinalysis as part of diagnostic testing for kidney disease, urinary tract infections, and other metabolic disorders. This is often recommended during annual wellness exams or if symptoms like increased thirst are noted.

We provide Fecal Testing to detect intestinal parasites (e.g., giardia, coccidia) in pets. This is particularly important for puppies/kittens, outdoor pets, or those showing gastrointestinal symptoms.

Our clinic uses Digital X-Rays to diagnose conditions like fractures, heart/lung disease, dental issues, and foreign objects. Radiology is often performed in-house for quick results during emergencies or routine care.

We offer Ultrasound Imaging for large animals (e.g., pregnancy diagnosis in cattle) using portable machines. For small animals, we collaborate with external labs if advanced ultrasound is needed.

We perform Eye Pressure Testing using tonometry to screen for glaucoma and other ocular diseases. This is part of our comprehensive eye care services, especially important for senior pets.

Our clinic monitors Blood Pressure in pets with heart disease or kidney conditions. Elevated blood pressure can contribute to organ damage and requires management.

Tooth Extractions are performed as part of our dental and oral surgery services. We address severe periodontal disease, fractured teeth, or extractions required before anesthesia for other procedures.

During wellness exams, we provide At-Home Dental Care Education to help pet owners maintain their pets’ oral health between professional cleanings, including brushing techniques and dental treats.

We perform routine Spay & Neuter Surgery for dogs and cats, with vaccinations required prior to surgery. Our team ensures safe anesthesia, pain management, and postoperative care instructions.

Foreign Body Removal is performed during emergencies (e.g., ingested objects) or routine surgeries. Our radiology services help locate objects before surgical intervention.

Wound & Laceration Repair is provided for traumatic injuries, including suturing and advanced wound management to promote healing.

Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring is available for pets requiring intensive care, including postoperative recovery or treatment of acute illnesses. Our staff provides round-the-clock observation.

IV Fluid Therapy is administered for dehydration, surgery recovery, or systemic illnesses. We monitor fluid balance closely to ensure patient stability.

We prioritize Pain Management for surgical and chronic pain patients using multimodal approaches (e.g., medications, laser therapy, and rehabilitation). Pain assessment is part of every exam.

Poison & Toxin Treatment includes induction of vomiting, IV fluids, and supportive care for ingestions (e.g., chocolate, lilies, rodenticides). Immediate action is critical in these cases.

Sanitary Shave services are provided to prepare pets for surgery or manage matted fur, especially around surgical sites or skin conditions.

Anal Gland Expression is performed to relieve discomfort in pets with impacted anal glands, a common issue in small breeds or dogs with digestive upset.

Cold Laser Therapy is used for pain relief, wound healing, and inflammation reduction in postoperative or arthritic pets. Sessions are tailored to individual needs.

Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation includes post-surgical recovery exercises, hydrotherapy (limited), and conditioning programs for pets with mobility issues.

Massage Therapy is offered to improve circulation, reduce muscle tension, and aid recovery in pets with injuries or chronic pain.

Quality of Life Assessment is discussed during senior or palliative care consultations to evaluate pain, mobility, and overall well-being. This helps guide decisions about treatment or euthanasia.
