Anal Gland Expression
Anal glands are scent glands that are located just inside the rectum. These glands are naturally expressed each time a dog has a bowel movement. Sometimes these glands don't empty on their own and can become infected and even rupture which is very painful.
Heartworm Test
Heartworm disease is a serious and potentially fatal disease in pets in Canada and many other parts of the world transmitted by more than 70 species of mosquitoes. Since the dog is a natural host for heartworm disease, prevention is highly recommended.
Fleas and Ticks
Fleas and ticks are external parasites that result in serious disease as well as extreme discomfort for your pet. These parasites are more prevalent during the warmer months, but ticks can survive cold temperatures and can remain active until December.
