Preventive Care

Dental Care
Did you know that dental disease is the most common pet disease? 80% of dogs and 70% of cats are affected by the age of three. What causes dental disease? Pet owners neglecting dental care. Just as humans prioritize regular trips to the dentist, our animal companions need routine dental care to maintain a healthy mouth. When bacteria and food debris accumulate in the mouth, they harden into plaque and wear down the surface of the teeth and gums. If plaque is not removed, it can cause serious problems, from mouth pain to tooth loss.

Vaccination
If you just brought a new pet home, or are considering it, congratulations! We're here to help keep your pet happy and healthy at the beginning of her life, and throughout. Together, we will discuss your pet's unique examination and vaccination needs, establish a baseline for your new pet's health, and discuss treatment when something is not quite right. If you have any questions about our services or are looking to book an appointment for your new pet, please call us today!
Comprehensive Examination
Like a credit card, but better. CareCredit® works just like a regular credit card, but without high interest rates, annual fees or pre-payment penalties. CareCredit® offers no-interest and low interest payment terms, zero hidden fees, and low minimum monthly payments. You can use your CareCredit® card over and over for all your pet’s follow-up care as well as annual exams and vaccines. So you can focus on what really matters, like playing fetch and learning new tricks.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Fleas, ticks, heartworm, intestinal parasites – we can recommend preventative medicine to protect your pet from these nasty parasites. The bite of a flea or tick can transmit dangerous diseases, including Lyme disease, tapeworm, and bartonella, while heartworm and intestinal parasites can cause serious harm to your pet’s vital internal organs. For these reasons, we strongly recommend that all pets, even indoor pets, take a preventative medicine. Your veterinarian will help you determine the best prevention program for your pet.
Pain Management
At Crysler Animal Hospital, we understand that surgery can be a stressful process for you and your pet. Thatâ€™s why we have invested in top-of-the-line surgical technology and do everything we can to make the surgical process as safe and pain-free as possible for your pet. Our veterinarians diligently monitor your petâ€™s vitals throughout surgery. Following any procedure, we provide a comprehensive pain management plan to make your petâ€™s recovery as comfortable as possible. Our veterinarians will tailor your petâ€™s postoperative plan to the source and severity of pain, as well as how your pet responds to medication.
Intestinal Foreign Object Removal
Our procedures range from routine surgeries like spaying, neutering, and orthopedics to more advanced surgeries designed to improve your pet’s quality of life, treat or correct major issues, and in some cases even save your pet’s life. Some surgeries are scheduled well in advance, while some are emergency surgeries that must be completed as quickly as possible— such as foreign body removal when your pet swallows something they can’t digest.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Diabetes Treatment
Heart Disease Treatment
It is important to remember that dogs and cats age much faster than people, with most cats and small dogs considered senior at age seven, and large dogs at age six. When your pet reaches his or her senior years, it is more important than ever to prioritize check-ups with your veterinarian so that diseases such as these can be detected in their early stages. Senior pets are affected by many of the same illnesses as older humans, including heart disease, liver disease, cancer, diabetes, and dementia. The earlier a condition is diagnosed, the more successful treatment will be.

Wound and Fracture Care

Veterinary Surgery
Whether itâ€™s a routine checkup or emergency surgery, you shouldnâ€™t have to worry about how to get the best medical care for the pet you love. Thatâ€™s why weâ€™re pleased to offer CareCreditÂ®, North Americaâ€™s leading client payment program. CareCreditÂ® lets you say â€œyesâ€ to the best treatment for your pet immediately, and pay for it over time with low monthly payments that fit easily into your budget.
Laser Surgery
From laser surgery to acupuncture, we stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in veterinary medicine, enabling us to provide the safest, most comprehensive care for your pet.
Spaying and Neutering
Spaying or neutering your pet is, in many cases, one of the most responsible choices that an owner can make on behalf of their pet. Preventing them from impregnating other pets or becoming pregnant themselves is only one of the benefits of this procedure. It can also protect them from a whole host of potential health issues.

Laboratory Services
Our preventative care program is designed to keep your pet feeling his or her best, but illness and injury do happen. Should you ever notice any sign of concern â€“ your pet seems to be in pain, you have noticed a change in behavior, etc. â€“ do not hesitate to schedule an appointment with your veterinarian. The earlier that disease and injury are detected, the greater are your petâ€™s chances of a complete and quick recovery. Our hospital is equipped with an on-site laboratory, allowing us to return test results quickly and get started on your petâ€™s treatment immediately. Our team is experienced in performing a comprehensive array of diagnostic tests, including complete blood count, skin and ear cytology, and more. Our veterinarians also use radiology, ultrasound, and ECG/EKG to diagnose a greater range of conditions.
X-Ray
An electrocardiogram test is a painless and non-invasive procedure that records the electric pulses of your pet’s heart. This procedure is recommended whenever an abnormal heart rhythm is suspected. Your veterinarian may combine ECG with chest x-rays or ultrasound of the heart in order to get a better idea of your pet’s cardiovascular health.
Microchipping
Losing your animal companion is a terrifying feeling. Microchipping is the best way to ensure your pet’s safe return home should he or she ever be lost. A microchip is a tiny, electronic identification device. It’s size makes it easy and painless to implant – the procedure takes seconds and can be performed during any routine visit to the veterinarian. Once your pet is microchipped, you must register the chip in an online database. Should your pet ever be lost, an animal hospital or shelter can scan him or her for the microchip, access your contact information from the online registry, and return him or her safely.

However, as our furry best friends age, they need increased veterinary care to feel their best selves.
