In September and October, Suburban Animal Clinic celebrates Senior Pets. Unfortunately, our pets don't live as long as we'd like, and by age 7, most dogs and cats are considered senior citizens.
As with people, aging pets need special care. The staff at Suburban work to educate pet parents on the necessity of more frequent exams as well as various tests (bloodwork, radiographs, ECG's, etc) to help monitor the health of our senior friends.
One such test is Eye Pressure to monitor for Glaucoma. This is a quick, simple procedure that can be done during your appointment. We will apply a numbing drop to your pet's eyes, and after a moment, use an instrument called a Tonopen to measure the pressure in the eyes. Glaucoma is a serious, painful eye condition, and early detection will allow for prompt treatment and relief for your pet.
We recommend that all senior patients be monitored for Glaucoma. During Senior months (September & October), we are offering Glaucoma screenings for $5 during your pet's senior exams.
Also don't forget to continue your Heartworm Prevention all year long, as well as your flea prevention at least until November/December. We have a few specials that are ending soon, so check your supply and stock up if you can!
