What Is a Pet Wellness Exam?

Your Pet’s Annual Check-Up for Prevention and Peace of Mind

A vet check-up is more than just a quick look—it’s a head-to-tail assessment of your pet’s overall health, behavior, and risk factors. Wellness exams allow us to identify subtle signs of disease, make proactive care recommendations, and answer your questions about nutrition, lifestyle, and more.

During a wellness visit, we may include:
  • A full physical exam
  • Dental evaluation
  • Weight and body condition monitoring
  • Vaccinations based on your pet’s age, lifestyle, and exposure risk
  • Parasite prevention for fleas, ticks, heartworms, and intestinal parasites
  • Lab testing (bloodwork, urinalysis, fecal tests) when appropriate
  • Discussion of behavior, activity level, and home care tips

Whether you have a bouncy puppy or a mellow senior cat, our team tailors every exam to your pet’s individual needs.

Why Preventative Vet Care Matters

Catching problems early means simpler treatment and better outcomes. Many conditions—like dental disease, arthritis, or kidney changes—develop gradually and can go unnoticed without routine veterinary visits.

Preventative care helps:

  • Detect disease early (before symptoms are obvious)
  • Build a reliable baseline for future visits
  • Keep vaccinations and parasite control up to date
  • Maintain a healthy weight and lifestyle
  • Save money on emergency or advanced care down the road

Our goal is to partner with you in preventing illness, not just treating it.

Vaccinations and Parasite Protection

As part of every wellness plan, we’ll help you stay on top of:

  • Core and lifestyle pet vaccinations in Owego (Rabies, DHPP, Bordetella, and more)
  • Heartworm, flea, and tick prevention based on current regional risks
  • Internal parasite screening and deworming when needed

We’ll walk you through the best options based on your pet’s age, breed, and environment—whether they’re a homebody or an outdoor adventurer.

When Should You Schedule a Wellness Visit?

  • Puppies & Kittens: Every 3–4 weeks until 16 weeks of age
  • Adult Pets: Once annually for routine care and vaccines
  • Senior Pets (7+ years): Twice yearly with wellness labwork

Even if your pet seems healthy, an annual visit is essential for early detection and peace of mind.
