Preventive Care

Dental Care
Dental Care: “Dog breath” isn’t just unpleasant – it’s a sign your pooch needs dental care. Our veterinarian in Park Hills can perform teeth cleanings to remove plaque and help protect your dog from dental disease. We can also offer tips to help keep cavities and gum disease in check with at-home dental care.
Vaccination
Vaccinations. Vaccinations are important way to prevent your pet from catching a serious illness or deadly disease. Vaccinations can protect your pet from conditions like rabies, Bordetella and distemper. We administer a variety of core and non-core vaccines to ensure that pets get the vaccinations they need to avoid common conditions.
Behavioral Counseling
Pet overpopulation is still a big problem, but unwanted litters aren't the only things we prevent with the spay and neuter procedure. If you bring an unaltered cat or dog to our animal hospital in Park Hills, we will recommend a spay or neuter procedure to help reduce your pet's health risks and behavioral problems too. This routine, outpatient procedure is a preventative way to decrease some cancer and infection risks, as well as hormonal behaviors such as urine marking, howling, territorial aggression, and roaming or escape attempts.
Nutritional Counseling
You are what you eat--and so is your pet! At our animal hospital in Park Hills, we offer pet nutritional counseling along with many other comprehensive pet care services for cats and dogs of any age, size, breed, and health history. In our experience, we find that many well-meaning pet owners don't give the process of selecting the right cat or dog food its due diligence. After all, a simple trip to the pet store can be a pretty overwhelming experience--just think about all the food choices you'll find! Where to start? Read on to learn some helpful tips from our Park Hills veterinarian team that can make a big difference in your animal's overall well-being.
Comprehensive Examination
Once a year, you should take your pet in for a check-up. This will include a full physical exam, and may include teeth and gum cleaning if needed. Dr. Mark Collett DVM will check the health of your pet from head to tail, and you will be very happy you came to Park Hills Animal Hospital for service.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Pests and parasites can do serious damage to your beloved pet before you're even aware of their presence. Fleas are almost invisible when buried beneath an animal's hair, while heartworms live out their lives hidden within your pet's body. These creatures can sneak upon your pet and ruin his quality of life unless you take the necessary steps to prevent it. Fortunately, Park Hills Animal Hospital offers flea and heartworm prevention to safeguard your pet against these uninvited guests.
Pain Management
We are a small animal practice providing complete medical, surgical, and dental services to our patients. In addition to excellent medical care, we offer nutrition counseling and support, pain management, geriatric services, boarding accommodations, grooming and house calls. Our friendly animal-loving staff welcomes clients and patients so that they feel at home from the minute they walk through our door. Contact us today to learn about our services or schedule an appointment.
Vomiting Treatment
Diarrhea Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Pets can have a variety of allergic reactions to substances in their environment. Here are some common symptoms that you will want to keep an eye on...
Intestinal Foreign Object Removal

Infection Treatment

Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
Inability to Move Back Legs. Has your cat suddenly started dragging it's back legs? The most common cause of the problem is a type of blood clot called a saddle thrombus, according to Tufts University Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine. A stroke, tumor, viral or fungal infection, tick bite, spinal inflammation, slipped disc, or a broken pelvis are among the other reasons for back leg paralysis or weakness.
Ear Infection Treatment
Know the signs of pet food allergy. If you notice any of the following signs and symptoms, be sure to consult with our Park Hill veterinarian staff: ear infections, skin infections that only go away with the use of antibiotics, excessive itching or scratching around the face, trunk, limbs, paws, and anus, and increased and/or loose bowel movements.
Urinary Tract Infection Treatment
Change in Litter Box Habits. Your cat might avoid the litter box if it has kidney stones, a urinary tract infection, feline interstitial cystitis, kidney stones, or a life-threatening urinary tract blockage. Some urinary tract conditions could also make it difficult to reach the litter box in time. Older cats may find it difficult to use a litter box with a high rim due to joint pain or arthritis or might forget where the litter box is due to dementia.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Arthritis Treatment
Supplements. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, the same supplements people use, to ease arthritis pain may also be helpful for pets. Be sure to ask your pet's veterinarian about the proper dosage of any supplements.
Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. Rocky Mountain spotted fever has been reported in nearly every state, although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention note that the disease is most often found in Central, Eastern and Western states. If your pet has Rocky Mountain spotted fever, it may experience joint pain, fever, swollen lymph nodes, poor appetite, coughing, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, balance problems, and purple spots on the mouth or eyelids due to damaged blood vessels. In severe cases, organ failure can occur due to blood clots. The American Dog Tick, Brown Deer Tick and Rocky Mountain Wood Tick can transmit Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
Obesity Treatment
Do you throw handfuls of food in your pet's dish instead of following the feeding recommendations on the package? Your pet is more likely to develop a weight problem if too much food is available. As many as 56 million American cats are overweight or obese, according to estimates from the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention. Gaining too much weight increases your cat's risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, urinary tract disease, joint issues, high blood pressure and arthritis.
Diabetes Treatment
Thyroid Disease Treatment
Thirst. Have you been refilling your cat's water bowl more frequently lately? Several diseases and conditions, including diabetes and kidney or thyroid disease, increase your pet's thirst.
Heart Disease Treatment
Kidney Disease Treatment
Consult with your Park Hills veterinarian on a regular basis regarding your pet's nutrition. Your pet's nutritional needs can change as it gets older or develops a health problem. Puppies and kittens eat differently than senior animals. Equally, if your pet has a chronic health condition, like kidney disease or obesity, you'll need to modify its diet to help manage the disease. Our vet team can help guide you throughout the process so that you'll be confident with what you're putting in the cat or doggie dish.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
If your pet has periodontal disease, its gums may begin to pull away from the teeth, forming deep pockets around the teeth. Debris and bacteria collect in the pockets, which only worsens your pet's breath.
Cancer Treatment
Your pet may need surgery if a tumor is the reason for the bad breath. Tumors can benign (non-cancerous) or cancerous. If your pet has a cancerous tumor, radiation or chemotherapy may also be recommended, depending on the type and stage of the cancer.

Surgery

Dental Surgery
Oral health problems can cause debilitating pain, appetite loss, and infections throughout the body, so it's important to stay on top of your pet's dental needs. We offer oral surgeries at our Park Hills animal hospital, including routine and emergency tooth extractions in cases of decay, injury, or misalignment. If your pet has a tooth that needs to come out, we will do our best to reduce their risks throughout the procedure, including closely monitoring their vitals and administering anesthesia as gradually as possible. Our goal is to keep them comfortable and healthy before and after the extraction.
Veterinary Surgery
Your pets deserve a Park Hills veterinarian with experience, compassion, and state-of-the-art surgical equipment. Here at Park Hills Animal Hospital, we offer all of the above with our innovative pet surgery services. Our veterinarians perform the following pet surgeries at our animal hospital, among other life-saving and life-changing procedures...
Spaying and Neutering
Spay and neuter surgery is a common procedure at our animal hospital in Park Hills. This outpatient surgery has minimal recovery time and low risks for patients, especially if you get your puppy or kitten "fixed" while they're still young. Because we want you to be informed and prepared for your pet's surgery, we're happy to answer any questions you have about the surgery.

Lab and X-Rays

Laboratory Services
Diagnostic Services: When something mysterious is wrong with your pet, visit our animal hospital in Park Hills for diagnostic services, including radiology (X-rays) and ultrasounds. These tools are used to pinpoint problems from bone breaks and fractures to organ abnormalities to fetal health in breeding animals.
X-Ray
Microchipping
Have you been thinking about microchipping your dog or cat, but aren't sure if it's really necessary? Implanting a tiny identification chip under your pet's skin offers several important benefits.

General Pet Care

Boarding
If you and your beloved pet have never been separated, or if your pet has always seemed all right with overnight separations, you may not be familiar with the concept of pet boarding at our animal hospital in Park Hills. But when it's time to enter the hospital for lengthy medical treatment, fly across the country on business or take a vacation to a place that can't accommodate your pet, you'll want to make sure your special friend has plenty of food, activity, affection and access to veterinary care throughout your absence. Our boarding services at Park Hills Animal Hospital will put your mind at ease.

Our routine care includes wellness exams, dental care, dietary and nutrition advice, and senior pet care. If your pet has an emergency, we are able to provide urgent care during our open hours. To keep your pet well, we have a fully stocked pharmacy in house and we offer all laboratory and diagnostic services.
