Deworming: Intestinal Parasites
Dogs are ideal hosts to worms and other parasites. By nature, our dogs lick, smell, chew or eat anything that comes across their path. Sooner or later the odds are that your dog will be exposed to some type of parasite. At Creekside Animal Hospital we are dedicated to educating our clients and recommending the best standard of care in order to prevent your dog from getting worms.

Canine Laboratory Tests For Veterinary Care
WHY IS LABWORK IMPORTANT?
In many cases, the physical exam and knowing the symptoms that have been observed are not enough for us to make a precise diagnosis. Our dogs cannot speak and tell us how they are feeling, labwork can fill in the blanks and uncover issues that are on-going and undetectable otherwise. Many times we are able to detect illness before your dog shows any symptoms.
Dog Vaccinations
Everything You Must Know About Vaccinating Your Dog
Dog vaccinations play a critical role in protecting your dog from many dangerous and even fatal diseases. While state law requires all dogs are vaccinated for rabies, there are a number of other vaccinations that can protect your dog from serious diseases that are easily preventable.
Spaying or Neutering Dogs
Dr. Dolan and Dr. Robinson and the Creekside Animal Hospital team have decades of surgical experience with dogs of all breeds, big and small, young and older. While we do consider spay and neuter procedures to be "routine", all general anesthesia procedures have a risk of complications.
Preventive Health Care For Dogs
What is a dog preventative care plan?
