North Shelby Animal Hospital

We emphasize the importance of annual physical examinations to detect early signs of health issues and ensure your pet remains in optimal condition. Our thorough check-ups help prevent serious health problems and keep your companion feeling their best.

We provide year-round heartworm prevention for pets, including testing and treatment options. Puppies start prevention early, and all dogs require annual testing. We offer multiple products that also prevent intestinal worms, ensuring comprehensive parasite protection.

We offer personalized nutritional counseling to help maintain your pet’s optimal weight and health. Our team provides guidance on diet, prescription foods, and weight management strategies tailored to your pet’s needs.

We conduct in-house diagnostic bloodwork, including CBC and chemistry panels, to assess your pet’s health before surgeries, dental cleanings, or when symptoms arise. This ensures we identify any potential risks or underlying conditions.

Our hospital is equipped with in-house radiography to diagnose and monitor conditions such as fractures, dental issues, or internal abnormalities. This allows for quick and accurate imaging for your pet’s care.

During dental cleanings, we use radiography to assess your pet’s oral health thoroughly, including hidden issues like root infections or fractures. This ensures comprehensive care and early detection of dental problems.

As part of our dental care services, we perform tooth extractions when necessary, such as for severely decayed or infected teeth. This is done during professional cleanings under sedation for your pet’s comfort and safety.

We perform routine spay and neuter surgeries to help control the pet population. Female puppies and kittens are spayed between 5-6 months, while males are neutered after both testicles descend. Pre-surgery exams and diagnostic bloodwork may be recommended to ensure safety under anesthesia.

We offer boarding services seven days a week, with reservations recommended during major holidays due to limited space. Our facility provides a safe and comfortable environment for your pet while you’re away.

We provide domestic health certificates for pets traveling within the United States. These certificates are required for interstate travel and can be arranged through our office.
