Seville Veterinary Hospital
Senior Care
Dogs and cats over seven years old are considered seniors and need special attention.

To keep pets feeling their best, semi-annual checkups are recommended. Older pets are at higher risk for cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease, cancer and other serious medical conditions. Often these conditions come on gradually, and owners may not detect the discomfort they may cause. At Seville Veterinary Hospital we are “senior pet friendly”.
Our senior wellness program supports aging pets to stay healthy and detect issues early for easier treatment. Regular veterinary check-ups can extend your pet's lifespan by catching problems sooner.
As pets age, the risk of various health issues like arthritis, cancer, and heart disease increases. Detecting these conditions early is crucial. Senior ages vary based on breed. We recommend baseline exams around 7 years for dogs and 8 years for cats, followed by more frequent check-ups, and regular blood screenings.
Our program addresses age-related symptoms, improves quality of life, and tailors a wellness plan to your pet's needs. Contact us to schedule your pet's exam and learn more about our senior wellness program.
