Thrive Pet Healthcare - New Braunfels

We provide thorough nose-to-tail physical exams to assess your pet’s overall health, including hair, skin, eyes, ears, mouth, teeth, breathing, and stimuli response. This helps us catch underlying issues early and maintain optimal well-being.

We offer specialized care for senior pets, including twice-yearly wellness exams and tailored diagnostic testing to monitor age-related health changes. Senior pets (typically over 7 years old) benefit from proactive monitoring of organ function and early disease detection.

We provide essential core vaccinations for dogs (rabies, distemper, parvovirus) and cats (rabies, FVRCP/respiratory vaccines) to protect against severe and potentially fatal diseases. These are a critical part of preventive care.

We offer annual heartworm testing and prevention programs to safeguard your pet from this serious and potentially fatal mosquito-borne disease. Heartworm preventatives are a key component of our preventive care plans.

Our clinic provides flea and tick prevention treatments to protect your pets from parasites that can cause itching, skin infections, tapeworms, Lyme disease, Ehrlichiosis, and other serious conditions.

We assess your pet’s weight during wellness exams and provide personalized nutritional counseling to help manage obesity or dietary concerns, ensuring they maintain a healthy weight for their age, breed, and size.

We recommend and perform fecal testing to detect intestinal parasites and provide deworming treatments as needed. This is often included during annual wellness exams or when symptoms like diarrhea or weight loss are present.

We offer comprehensive in-house bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and chemistry panels, to monitor organ function, detect early signs of disease, and guide treatment plans for middle-aged and senior pets.

As part of our diagnostic testing, we provide urinalysis to screen for urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. This is often recommended annually for adult pets and more frequently for seniors.

We perform fecal testing during wellness exams or when symptoms like diarrhea are present to detect intestinal parasites such as worms, which can cause discomfort and health issues if left untreated.

Our clinic provides digital X-ray imaging to diagnose conditions related to bones, organs, and internal structures. X-rays are essential for identifying fractures, heart or lung issues, dental problems, and abdominal abnormalities.

During dental cleanings, we take digital dental X-rays to evaluate the health of your pet’s teeth roots and jawbone. This helps us detect issues like abscesses, fractures, or advanced periodontal disease that aren’t visible during a visual exam.

We perform tooth extractions for pets with severe dental disease, chronic infections, resorptive lesions, or fractured teeth. Extractions are typically done during dental cleanings under anesthesia to ensure safety and comfort.

We treat periodontal disease through professional cleanings, scaling, polishing, and, if necessary, tooth extractions or advanced dental procedures. Early detection during wellness exams helps prevent progression.

We educate pet owners on at-home dental care practices, including brushing techniques, safe dental chews, and oral rinses to maintain their pet’s oral health between professional cleanings.

We perform spay and neuter surgeries to help prevent unwanted litters, reduce the risk of certain cancers, and improve your pet’s overall health and longevity. Recommendations are tailored based on individual cases.

We diagnose and treat pets that have ingested or are affected by foreign objects using X-rays, ultrasounds (when available), and surgical interventions to safely remove the obstruction.

We provide prompt evaluation and repair of wounds, lacerations, and injuries to ensure proper healing and minimize infection risk. Advanced wound care may include suturing or other surgical techniques.

We provide hospitalization services with 24-hour monitoring for pets requiring post-surgical care, chronic condition management, or recovery from illnesses. Our team ensures continuous support during these times.

We administer intravenous fluid therapy to pets suffering from dehydration, kidney disease, post-surgical recovery, or other conditions requiring hydration support. This is a critical part of our inpatient care.

Our clinic offers comprehensive pain management strategies for pre-, during-, and post-procedural care to ensure your pet’s comfort and well-being, including medications and monitoring.

We provide immediate treatment for pets exposed to toxins or poisons, which may include inducing vomiting (when safe), administering activated charcoal, IV fluids, and supportive care to mitigate effects.

We offer sanitary shaves for pets with matted fur around sensitive areas or those requiring post-surgical grooming to aid in healing and hygiene.

Our clinic provides professional nail trims and dremeling services to prevent overgrowth, discomfort, and related issues. We also offer discounted nail trims as part of our Thrive Plus membership.
