A comprehensive nose-to-tail exam helps us evaluate your pet’s overall health and monitor changes over time. We’ll assess areas such as their eyes, ears, mouth, skin and coat, heart, lungs, abdomen, joints, and body condition.
We tailor vaccination recommendations to your pet rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. We consider factors such as age, lifestyle, health, and exposure risks, with vaccine titer testing available when appropriate.
Year-round parasite prevention helps protect dogs and cats from fleas, ticks, heartworms, and the health problems they can cause. We can help you select preventive products based on your pet’s needs and lifestyle.
Routine screening can give us information about your pet’s health that we can’t always gather from a physical exam alone. Our in-house laboratory allows us to perform bloodwork, urinalysis, heartworm testing, FeLV/FIV testing, and other diagnostics when recommended.
Healthy nutrition looks different for every pet. We can help with everyday feeding decisions, weight management, and nutritional needs related to certain medical conditions, including recommendations for Royal Canin and Hill’s diets when appropriate.
Changes in behavior can sometimes be connected to your pet’s health, environment, or routine. Talk to us about concerns such as anxiety, reactivity, resource guarding, or other behavioral changes so we can help determine the appropriate next steps.
Colonial Care Plans make it easier to stay on top of your pet’s routine wellness needs while making veterinary expenses more predictable. With options for adult pets, puppies, and kittens, our plans combine important preventive services with convenient monthly payments.
Plans can also be personalized to meet your pet’s specific needs.

Healthy adult pets should generally receive routine veterinary examinations at least once a year, while puppies, kittens, senior pets, and animals with ongoing health concerns may need more frequent visits.
Yes. Indoor cats can still develop medical conditions, dental disease, parasites, and age-related health problems, and routine exams give us an opportunity to identify concerns that may not be obvious at home.
A wellness visit typically includes a physical examination and a discussion of your pet’s health history, lifestyle, nutrition, preventive care, and any concerns you’ve noticed. Depending on your pet’s age and health needs, we may also recommend vaccines, diagnostic screening, parasite prevention, or other preventive services.
Some health problems can develop before a pet shows noticeable symptoms. Routine diagnostic screening can give us useful baseline information and may reveal changes that deserve further evaluation.
Yes. Nutrition and weight management are part of preventive care at Colonial Animal Hospital, and we can recommend appropriate diets and strategies based on your pet’s age, lifestyle, and health needs.
