Why Is Wellness Testing Important?
Wellness testing is important because pets can’t tell you how they are feeling. Sometimes there is a problem before you even notice your pet is ill. With wellness testing, problems can be detected early, and steps taken to correct or control them.
Yearly wellness testing is very important in the healthy pet. It will give us a baseline for the normal values specifically for your pet. These values will be important to compare to in the future, should your pet become ill.
Wellness testing is especially important for pets needing elective surgery. A clean bill of health before surgery means your pet is more likely to have a rapid and complete recovery.
Wellness testing can be done any time, however many people find it convenient to combine wellness testing with their routine physical examination, vaccines or heartworm testing.
