- Dental CareKeeping your pet’s oral health in tip-top shape can do more than just improve their bad breath. Oral health is key to overall wellness. At Heartland Veterinary Clinic, our pet dentists in Harrisonburg offer dental exams and teeth cleaning services to keep your pet’s smile bright and healthy. We accept clients from throughout Rockingham County, including Staunton, Luray, Shenandoah, and Mathias.
- VaccinationFear among dogs visiting the veterinary clinic is a well-recognized problem. In one study of dogs, 75% of the dogs examined appeared fearful when entering a veterinary clinic, with 2 out of every 3 dogs visibly trembling. There are many possible reasons for this as some aspects of veterinary visits can be unpleasant (such as having blood drawn or receiving vaccinations).
