September is Senior Pet Wellness Month at Liberty Veterinary Hospital. While the old saying that every year is equal to seven dog years isn't completely accurate, time does go by faster for our furry friends, which is why bi-annual check-ups are more important than ever when they reach their golden years. Pet owners of Middletown, OH and surrounding cities can help with their pets' quality of life by scheduling a senior wellness exam for cats over nine years old and dogs pushing past seven. Liberty Veterinary Hospital has specialized senior wellness plans for each:

• Feline & Canine Senior Wellness Plan: Both plans consist of a thorough physical exam, dental exam, blood work, urinalysis, baseline thyroid test, chest radiographs, opthalmic examination, blood pressure testing, and an electrocardiogram.
• Bonuses: Included with both plans is a 10% discount on all dental cleanings within one month of the initial exam, 10% off all medications prescribed at the initial visit, and 10% off all additional diagnostic tests. Also included is a follow-up physical examination in six months.
• "Normal" Aging? Call Liberty Veterinary Hospital if your pet experiences difficulty moving, litter box problems (cats), appetite changes, weight gain, weight loss, bad breath, or other behavioral changes. What is often perceived as “normal aging” signs are actually symptoms of treatable health conditions.

You owe it to your pet to give them the lifelong care they deserve. For more information about age-appropriate dog and cat health plans, visit Liberty Veterinary Hospital online.
