What Heartworm Preventative is Your Dog On?
SAH has had some complaints recently about the palatability of Iverhart Max- some dogs just don't like how it tastes!  If this is the case with your dog, call us and let us know.  You can return the Iverhart Max for a new brand of heartworm preventative we are carrying called Interceptor.

New Extended Hours!
Do you work 9-5 and have a hard time getting your pet in for appointments during office hours?  Now in addition to alternate Saturdays from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, we are now open every Wednesday and Thursday from until 7:00 pm for appointments!

Twice Yearly Wellness Exams
Consistent with our commitment to your pet's health, we are recommending a 6-month wellness program for all of our
patients.  Why?  Just because your pet appears healthy
on the outside does NOT mean they are healthy on the inside.  A physical examination once a year for your pet is the same as you seeing your doctor once every 7 years!  Twice-
yearly physical examinations help detect significant health issues which can occur in a short period of time, such as cancer,
diabetes, arthritis, heart disease and metabolic disease.  With
a complete physical examination every 6 months and routine
blood screens, we can detect, treat and potentially even prevent health problems before they become life-threatening.
