Senior Pet Health:
Supporting Your Ageing Pet
As pets enter their senior years, their medical needs change significantly. Conditions such as arthritis, kidney disease, heart disease, dental problems, cognitive decline, thyroid disorders and diabetes become more common. Senior pets benefit greatly from twice-yearly health checks to detect issues before they progress.
At BVH, our senior wellness plans include comprehensive physical examinations, blood testing, urinalysis, blood pressure checks, dental assessments and nutritional counselling.
Early intervention can drastically improve mobility, comfort and longevity. Many age-related conditions are manageable with medication, lifestyle adjustment and regular monitoring.
Common signs of ageing include reduced activity, stiffness, weight changes, thirst changes, altered behaviour, lumps, and reduced hearing or vision. With tailored care, senior pets can continue to lead full and happy lives. BVH is committed to supporting your pet’s health at every stage.
