Preventive Care

Dental Care
These resources include a wide variety of pet care, health, and behavioral information relating to your dog or cat. They cover such topics as traveling with your pet, dental care, common diseases, giving medications, introducing your pet to a new baby, and many more helpful topics.
Vaccination
At Westside Animal Hospital, we feel that regular vaccinations are one of the cornerstones of good preventive health care for dogs and cats. When administered by your veterinarian, vaccines provide cost-effective protection against infectious and contagious diseases for both pets and people.
Behavioral Counseling
Spaying and neutering accounts for more than half of the surgical procedures performed on pets. A spay involves the complete removal of the female reproductive organs (the uterus and ovaries), and neutering involves the removal of the testicles. Spaying and neutering helps reduce pet overpopulation and often avoids medical and behavioral problems later in a pet’s life. If you have a new puppy or kitten, or have questions about spaying or neutering an older pet, our informational spay and neuter handout may address some of your concerns, and our veterinary staff will be glad to answer any additional questions that you may have. Just give us a call at (770) 607-3055
Nutritional Counseling
Cats don’t have the same weight gain and loss patterns as dogs. Their energy requirements stay about the same throughout their adult lives. If your cat loses weight, call your veterinarian.
Comprehensive Examination
We appreciate your interest in the services we offer. We are committed to offering the best in veterinary medicine for your pet, combined with a compassionate and caring approach. We are always happy to provide you with an estimate at no charge, prior to beginning any treatment. In appreciation for considering our services, please fill out the short form below and receive a coupon redeemable for your first Wellness Exam, for one pet. The coupon does not include testing, vaccines, or medications. This coupon cannot be used for sick, injured or second opinion consultations. Please call our office at 770-386-4444, to schedule your pet's first appointment.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Heartworm disease is a serious and potentially fatal condition caused by parasitic worms that are transmitted by common mosquitoes. These worms live in the arteries of the lungs and occasionally in the right side of the heart of dogs, cats, and other species of mammals. It is a common misconception that indoor pets aren’t in danger for heartworms or other parasitic infections. This simply isn’t true.
Behavioral Disorder Treatment
For the protection of all pets in our care, boarders must be healthy and free of chronic medical problems. All pets are required to be up to date on the following core vaccines: Canine Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus, Bordetella, and Canine Influenza H3N8/H3N2. They must also be free from internal and external parasites, with a current heartworm and intestinal parasite exam. If your pet is not current on any of the above, we will be happy to update them at the time of admission. If your pet requires medication while boarding with us, please discuss this with our staff in advance.
Pain Management
Undoubtedly, one of your primary concerns is whether your pet will experience pain during and after surgery. The veterinarian will explain how we can work together to make surgery as pain free as possible.
Vomiting Treatment
Diarrhea Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment

Infection Treatment

Parvovirus Infection Treatment

Chronic Condition Treatment

Arthritis Treatment
Diabetes Treatment
Thyroid Disease Treatment
Hyperthyroidism is diagnosed in one in ten cats over 9 years old. A common cause of death just 20 years ago, now it is treated easily—the earlier, the better.
Heart Disease Treatment
Your pet’s Senior Health Program should include laboratory blood and urine tests, but we may also recommend radiographs (X-rays), an ultrasound, or an EKG. It is important to establish a set of "baseline" values for your pet with these diagnostic tests to make it easy for your veterinarian to monitor changes in your pet’s health over time.
Kidney Disease Treatment
Kidney disease is a major cause of illness and death in dogs and cats, but symptoms do not usually appear until two-thirds of the kidney function has been lost. If caught early, your pet could live happily with this condition for many years.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Dental care is one of the most effective ways to prolong your pet’s life and prevent the chronic discomfort that accompanies dental disease. For us, caring for our teeth and gums is part of our daily routine. We understand that without this daily attention and without regular visits to the dentist, serious problems with our teeth and gums would develop. Your pet needs dental care to prevent problems, too. Pets do not complain much, but those with significant periodontal disease routinely start acting happier and livelier once their dental problems are addressed. Those pets that receive routine dental care have fewer heart, lung, kidney, and liver problems as they mature, as well as nicer breath!
Cancer Treatment
Both approaches may involve the use of multiple treatments completed at our animal hospital such as chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, nutritional management, and immuno-stimulating therapy.

Wound and Fracture Care
Poisoning Treatment

Dental Surgery
Veterinary Surgery
The decision to have your pet undergo surgery is an important one. You probably have many questions about the procedure and how it will affect your pet. At Westside Animal Hospital, our goal is to keep your pet as safe as possible.
Laser Surgery
Spaying and Neutering
Should your pet become injured or ill enough to require surgery, rest assured our veterinarians are skilled in a variety of advanced surgical techniques. Dr. Walker and the veterinary staff at Westside Animal Hospital strive to provide a friendly, relaxed, and compassionate setting for veterinary surgical patients. Our pet hospital has years of experience in soft tissue, orthopedic, and cancer surgeries, as well as more simple spay and neuter procedures.

Laboratory Services
Even if your pet seems perfectly healthy, frequent veterinary examinations are necessary for early detection of the changes and illnesses associated with aging. These changes may occur slowly, and you may not notice the subtle signs that your veterinarian can detect during an exam or through laboratory testing.
X-Ray
Microchipping
Microchip implants are a safe and reliable way to improve the chances of recovering a lost pet. One of the most frightening experiences a pet owner can have is losing a pet. Statistics indicate that one out of three pets will become lost in their lifetime, and 90% of lost pets never find their way home because of no identification. An even scarier statistic is that 30–60% of those pets will be euthanized at animal shelters because they have no identification. Collars and nametags can be helpful in recovering a lost pet, but because they are external, they can be removed or lost. The permanent way to secure your pet’s identification is with a microchip implant.

General Pet Care

Boarding
At Westside Animal Hospital, we are pleased to offer our current veterinary clients limited boarding, for both medical and non-medical admissions. You can put your mind at ease while you are away, knowing that your pet is in an environment that emphasizes safety and cleanliness. Going away and have a special needs pet? Call us to inquire about our hospital care options for your best friend.
Senior Pet Care
There are diets designed specifically for senior pets. We highly recommend Hill’s Science Diet and Prescription Diets. Ask us which diet would be appropriate for your pet.
