At Lomsnes Veterinary Hospital, we believe vaccinations and annual exams are an essential part of your dog’s health and longevity. Adult dogs require a yearly wellness exam, regular deworming and vaccinations every 3 years. By immunizing your dog against possible illness, you not only protect them from getting sick but you help control the spread of contagious diseases. Along with the vaccine, your dog will receive a wellness exam from one of our veterinarians. This includes checking ears, eyes, teeth, heart, abdomen, joints, weight, growths and overall body condition. The veterinarian is also your best source of advice regarding deworming products, nutrition, and behaviour. Remember prevention is the best medicine!
