- ImmunizationsFor the safety of your furry family member as well as our other boarders, all pets must be current on their vaccination schedule. Prior to boarding at Loop, canines must be currently vaccinated for Rabies, canine distemper virus, adenovirus type 2, parainfluenza virus, canine parvovirus, leptospirosis, and bordetella (kennel cough). Our feline friends need current vaccinations for Rabies, Feline rhinotracheitis virus, calicivirus, and panleukopenia virus vaccinations. Please contact one of our team members at least two weeks prior to their anticipated stay if your pet is not up-to-date with their vaccinations or if you are unsure of their status.
- Cataracts
- Prostate CancerIt is very important to get your pets spayed or neutered to keep them healthy. They are less likely to roam, get in fights, or get hit by a car. They are also less likely to develop certain cancers, including breast cancer and prostate cancer. Females who get pregnant can get pyometras, which can be deadly, so it is much safer to spay or neuter your pets unless you are a breeder.
- Diabetes Care
- ThyroidBlood chemistries indicate how well your pet’s liver, kidney and pancreas function in your pet. A CBC can indicate your pet’s overall health, as red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets are all determined, which can indicate certain infections, cancers and the blood’s ability to clot. Electrolytes indicate whether an animal is dehydrated and may be in need of fluid therapy. Finally, endocrine testing can indicate a number of diseases including Cushing’s, Addison’s and thyroid disease. Fecal testing can indicate intestinal parasites that cannot be seen from the outside, and can at times be spread to humans. Finally, urinalysis can let our doctor’s know if your pet has certain urinary infections, as well as diabetes.
