Wellness exam questions
How often should my pet have a wellness exam?
Most adult cats and dogs should have a wellness exam once a year. Senior pets and pets with ongoing health conditions often benefit from a visit every six months, since changes can happen quickly.
What happens at a wellness exam?
Your veterinarian checks your pet from head to tail, including temperature, pulse, body weight and coat. Depending on your pet’s age and lifestyle, we may recommend blood work, a urine test, a parasite test or vaccines.

Yes. Book any time through Vello, or call (905) 331-1870 or text (289) 816-4399 during clinic hours. New clients are welcome.

Did you know, on average, one human year equals 5-7 cat/dog years? This means major health changes can happen faster than you think.
Routine wellness checks can help diagnose, treat, or prevent health problems. We believe prevention is the best cure for most ailments. This means regular check-ups and vaccinations to keep your pet in top shape.
