Wellness and Preventative Care

Helping you give your pet the healthiest and happiest life for as long as possible.

At Ranchside, we believe that preventative care is key to ensuring your pets live long, healthy, and happy lives. Just like humans, pets need routine check-ups, vaccinations, and lifestyle care to prevent health problems before they arise.
Preventative care can help avoid costly treatments down the road and give your furry companions the best chance for a thriving future.

Maintaining a preventative care routine for your pet can help detect hidden health problems, increase your pet’s lifespan, and save on future vet bills. 
Examples of preventative care that Ranchside provides include:
A woman closely examines a dog's teeth, ensuring the dog's dental health is properly assessed.

Just like a routine physical for humans, your pet needs regular wellness exams. These visits include a thorough examination to check for signs of illness, weight and coat condition, dental health, and overall well-being.

Vaccines protect your pet from serious diseases, such as rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and feline leukemia. Keeping up-to-date with vaccinations ensures your pet is shielded from preventable diseases.  Our veterinarians will discuss with you which vaccines your pet does and does not need.

Fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites (sometimes called worms) are common problems that can cause discomfort and more severe health issues. Preventative treatments, including flea and tick preventatives and deworming, are crucial to keeping your pet healthy and parasite-free.  Additionally, some parasites are contagious to humans, so these treatments protect the human family members as well.

Dental disease is one of the most overlooked health issues in pets. Regular use of dental prevention products, dental cleanings, and check-ups can prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and other dental problems, which can lead to pain and more serious infections.

Maintaining a balanced diet tailored to your pet’s age, size, and breed is essential. Obesity is one of the most common preventable health problems in pets and can lead to a range of conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, and heart disease.

Microchipping provides a permanent, reliable form of identification for your pet, making it much easier to reunite if they get lost.  Microchips can also be used as proof of ownership in some situations.

Regular check-ins with your veterinarian about behavioral issues can prevent or manage stress, anxiety, or aggression that can negatively impact your pet’s quality of life and their relationship with you.
