Services
Your pet's health is always our number one priority, which is why for most pets we recommend annual wellness exams to ensure that your animal companion remains in good health.
If your pet is a senior-over seven for dogs, over nine for cats-we strongly suggest twice-yearly exams and blood screenings.
That's because pets age more rapidly than humans, meaning disease and illness develop faster as well.
Cottman Animal Hospital's veterinarian-performed physical exams comprehensively assess every aspect of your pet's health.

Vaccinating your pet is a relatively inexpensive but very important way to protect his or her health.
In addition to preventing many life-threatening illnesses, vaccinations can prevent diseases prevalent in wildlife and those that can be passed to humans.
It's important to administer vaccinations when pets are puppies and kittens because their young immune systems are still developing and need protection to stay healthy.
Other non-core, but highly suggested vaccinations for cats include FeLV to protect against feline leukemia.

Dentistry is one of Cottman Animal Hospital's major areas of expertise because we believe in the importance of good dental care for pets.
By age 3, most dogs and cats have some evidence of periodontal disease.
Left untreated, the condition can result in tooth loss, gum infections, pain, and eventually more serious illness.
We offer efficient, professional dental services for both dogs and cats, and recommend that your pets get their teeth cleaned at least every 12 months.
Your Cottman Animal Hospital veterinarian can also help you with learning how to brush your pet's teeth and recommend products to reduce the build-up of plaque and tartar between cleanings.

Cottman Animal Hospital has the capability to perform various blood tests, pre-anesthetic bloodwork, and other types of testing on site instead of sending samples to an outside lab.
This saves time, money, and most importantly, you don't have to wait overnight for results-meaning your pet gets a diagnosis and needed treatment sooner.
Below is the testing we can provide at our hospital.
While we do offer an extensive range of on-site testing, it is possible that your pet may need laboratory work beyond our scope.

Seeing under the skin-that's what's possible with ultrasound technology.
Ultrasound is a powerful diagnostic tool that creates a real-time internal image of an animal's body, giving us important information about the circulatory, skeletal and gastrointestinal systems.
When used in conjunction with other diagnostic tools like X-rays, ultrasounds can help identify disease, blockages, skeletal fractures, soft tissue damage and other internal injuries.
Because ultrasounds don't require radiation, they're also used to monitor pregnancies and fetal health in breeding pets.
