Animal Emergency Care

Preventive Care

Dental Care
A standard dental cleaning without extractions begin at $200. Most frequently the range is between $200 and $800 and is dependent on the overall number of teeth being extracted. A pre-dental estimate is recommended as there are times when they exceed the higher end of the range. Upon request, we are happy to provide an estimate.
Vaccination
Starting your new puppy or kitten on a routine care program will pay off benefits for many years to come. Our staff is here to guide you and answer any questions you may have regarding your newest family member. We will discuss the right time to spay or neuter, assist with guidance related to behavior issues and socialization, recommend proper nutrition and necessary vaccinations.
Veterinary Ophthalmology
Animal Eye Care is a specialty practice located in Bellingham. This website has a wealth of great information regarding eye diseases.
Behavioral Counseling
Castration in small animals are performed on a routine basis for population control and behavior modification or may be performed for disease control or treatment. Intact (non-castrated) pets that reproduce in an unregulated manner may lead to companion animal overpopulation. Overpopulation is a huge problem in most municipalities across the country, recognized by crowded humane animal shelters and rescue organizations.
Nutritional Counseling
Hydrotherapy treatment benefits chronic conditions, pre-operative and post-operative recovery, and general fitness. It also is extremely beneficial for pets in their senior years and used for pets who may benefit with a weight control program.
Comprehensive Examination
The benefits of an annual physical exam for your pet can pay off over time. This is a great time for you, the pet owner, to ask questions of any concerns that you may be noticing.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
NSVH carries several flea preventatives for both cats and dogs. Some of these flea treatments also protects from Heartworm disease, internal parasites, and ticks. We can recommend a product that is right for your pet based on his/her living environment.
Behavioral Disorder Treatment
DAP (canine distemper virus, adenovirus type 2 and canine para-influenza virus): Given to puppies at 7-9 weeks of age, and every 3-4 weeks thereafter until the puppy is 16 weeks of age.
Pain Management
Therapy lasers have been scientifically proven and successful in treating many chronic and acute conditions and offers post-surgical pain relief. The beneficial effects of laser light on tissue were first recognized almost forty years ago. Since then, there have been thousands of studies documenting the positive effects laser light has on different types of cells, tissue, and disorders. Proven c linical studies and real-world use have proven that laser therapy alleviates pain and inflammation, reduces swelling, stimulates nerve regeneration and cells involved in tissue repair. There are no known side effects with this treatment.
Vomiting Treatment
Diarrhea Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Veterinary dermatology is the branch of medicine concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders in animals. Pets may experience a variety of issues that are truly miserable and challenging, yet usually very treatable.
Upper Respiratory Illness Treatment
Injury Treatment

Infection Treatment

Leptospirosis Treatment
Leptospirosis Given at 7 weeks of age or older and again 3-4 weeks after initial dose. Lasts for one year after second dose.
Feline Retro Virus Treatment
It is highly recommended that all cats and kitten be tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FELV/FIV). The following is from Cornell University Feline Health Center...
Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
Dentistry is much more than taking care of bad breath. Plaque and tartar build up on teeth and can cause bacterial infection of the gums. Additionally, teeth with tartar are a source of bacterial infection that can seriously impact your pet’s health.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Arthritis Treatment
Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Diabetes Treatment
Thyroid Disease Treatment
Catalyst – The Catalyst runs comprehensive chemistries and electrolyte profiles. The T4 helps easily screen, diagnose and manage thyroid disease during patient visits. The Fructosamine lab test helps us better manage diabetic patients with rapid results.
Heart Disease Treatment
Your pet’s safety is our primary concern and every pet gets a complete exam in the morning of the day of surgery. Additionally, we evaluate pre-anesthetic blood work, looking at organ function and electrolyte status. Pets receive intravenous (IV) fluids during most procedures to ensure they maintain adequate blood pressure and perfusion. We monitor all anesthetic procedures closely, using ECG (electrocardiography), blood pressure, pulse-oximeter and end tidal CO2. Most importantly a Licensed Veterinary Technician is continually evaluating your pet’s vital signs constantly throughout the procedure.
Kidney Disease Treatment
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Cancer Treatment
The side effects of chemotherapy in our pets is relatively mild compared to humans, making cancer in dogs and other companion animals more comfortable to treat than with humans. The doses of the drugs, along with a treatment schedule developed specifically for your pet, also helps minimize discomfort your pet will experience.

Wound and Fracture Care

Dental Surgery
As dental cleanings and dental surgeries are performed under anesthesia, be assured that all the same precautions that are taken as with our general and extensive surgery patients (pre-anesthesia blood work, IV fluids, patient monitors, and constant supervision by a trained surgery assistant), the same is so for all our dental procedures. Pets rest comfortably during the procedure and our staff will be by their side when they awake. When extractions (dental surgery) are necessary, the time it takes influences the overall costs. An estimate of costs will be provided.
Veterinary Surgery
We are here to get to the root of your pet’s symptoms. NSVH will always strive for the less invasive medical approach to reduce recovery time. When exploratory surgery is the right option to get much needed answers, Northshore will thoroughly discuss options and provide you with an estimate.
Spaying and Neutering
Overiohysterectomy is the surgical sterilization of the female dog and cat and more commonly referred to as spaying. The surgery involves the removal of the uterus and ovaries and is most commonly performed between 5 and 12 months of age. The recommended age for surgery depends on a number of factors, such as predicted adult size and presence of urinary tract or vaginal infections. For giant breed dogs, such as Saint Bernard’s or Irish Wolfhounds, the recommended age of spaying is often later, around 18 months of age.

Laboratory Services
Dental cleanings are more than just brushing teeth, as they are performed under anesthesia with the same precautions taken as those of our general and extensive surgery patients (exam, pre-anesthesia blood work, IV catheter and fluids, patient monitors, and constant supervision by a trained surgery assistant). Pets rest comfortably during the procedure and our staff will be by their side when they awake.
X-Ray
NSVH has state of the art equipment and a highly trained staff to allow us to meet your pets needs. Services and capabilities available include, but are not limited to: Digital Radiography, Digital Dental Radiography, Ultrasound, Endoscopy, Orthopedic and Soft Tissue Surgery, Class IV Therapeutic Laser, Acupuncture, Canine Rehabilitation, In-House Blood Chemistry, Complete Blood Count, Urinalysis, and Extensive Reference Laboratory Services.
Dental Radiology
For young patients dental x-rays help us to determine any abnormalities, missing, non-vital, and vital teeth. The radiation risk from taking dental radiographs is minimal and is outweighed by the numerous benefits.
Microchipping
NSVH highly recommends microchipping your pet. With an implanted microchip, you increase your odds significantly with being reunited with your four-legged (or three-legged) family member. It can mean the difference between being lost and found.

General Pet Care

Boarding
What the titer strives to determine is the level of immunity your specific pet has achieved for a particular disease for which they have been vaccinated. There are many variables regarding whether titer testing is accepted as proof of immunity, instead of a vaccine. For example: some doggy daycares, kennels, or cat boarding facilities may not accept titer testing in lieu of vaccinating. If you are considering titer testing, make sure to check with these places in advance to clarify whether or not they accept titer testing. For our area, taking your dog across the border into Canada requires a Rabies certificate of vaccination. A Rabies titer is not an acceptable passport to get your dog into Canada. Rabies vaccines for dogs and cats are now required by law in Washington State.
Grooming
Senior Pet Care
Pet are very adept at hiding health issues and often diagnosis and treatment is delayed. As with our own aging immune system, pets too become more susceptible to disease and illness. As pet owners, we must keep a close eye on our senior pets so that we can be diligent in providing the best environment and care during their senior years.
