The New Year is a time for fresh starts—and that includes your pet’s health. Just like people, pets benefit from routine checkups, early detection of health issues, and personalized wellness plans. At Alpine Animal Hospital, we believe preventive care is the foundation of a long, happy life for your furry family members.
Why Preventive Care Matters
Preventive care helps us catch problems early, often before your pet shows visible symptoms. This can mean:
- Fewer emergency visits
- Lower long-term medical costs
- A better quality of life, and potentially a longer life, for your pet
Annual wellness exams allow our team to assess your pet’s overall health, update vaccinations, and recommend screenings based on age, lifestyle, and risk factors.
What’s Included in a Wellness Exam?
A typical exam may include:
- Nose-to-tail physical exam
- Weight and body condition assessment
- Vaccine updates
- Parasite prevention review
- Bloodwork or lab screenings (especially for senior pets)
- Nutrition and lifestyle guidance
These visits are also a great time to ask questions about behavior, diet, or changes you’ve noticed at home.
New Year’s Health Resolutions for Pets
Here are a few simple goals to set for your pet in 2026:
- Schedule an annual wellness exam
