Overall

The best decision I ever made!

I live about 40 miles from this vet and I will not take my animals to anyone else! They are so caring and wonderful! I think they actually care about the animals as much as the owners do! I recommend this vet to anyone and everyone that has animals. They are reasonably priced and the best part is is that they care about you and your animals!!

Preventive Care

Dental Care
Did you know that February is National Pet Dental Health Month? We love that this month is devoted to your canine’s canines, your kitty’s chompers, and your pet’s pearly whites. While your companion’s mouth may be a source of kisses and smiles, pet parents may overlook how much their pet’s dental health affects their overall well-being.
Vaccination
Nutritional Counseling
Comprehensive Examination
When the veterinarian examines your pet, he/she will take the time to listen and ask questions so he/she can understand your concerns. Your veterinarian will also perform a physical examination of your pet-checking his/her eyes, ears, mouth, and listening to his/her heart-and will ask you questions about his/her habits and activities.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Keeping your pet’s skin healthy is the easiest way to prevent him from developing hot spots. We recommend using year-round flea and tick protection in addition to grooming his coat regularly. Matted fur traps moisture and can attract fleas, ticks, and other parasites. Occasionally, a pet may have a behavioral issue that causes the biting, scratching, and licking that leads to hot spots. If that’s the case with your pet, speak to Dr. Henkes or Dr. Weckwerth to help determine what could be causing the unwanted behavior. They are happy to recommend a specific product to prevent parasites as well.
Vomiting Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Is your pet constantly scratching? Pets can suffer from various skin issues that can cause extreme discomfort. Some pets may develop skin irritation as a result of allergies, while other pets may be itchy from fleas or other parasites. To provide your pet some itch relief, you’ll need to know what to look for and what is causing your pet’s problem.

Infection Treatment

Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
Acute moist dermatitis, more commonly known as hot spots, occurs due to a bacterial infection on your pet’s skin. Your dog or cat will naturally bite, chew, lick or scratch his skin in response to an irritant. Unfortunately for your pet, this tends to increase rather than decrease his discomfort. Anal gland disease, allergies to fleas or food ingredients, mange, tick bites, and inadequate grooming are the primary causes of hot spots in companion animals.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Periodontal Disease Treatment
The American Veterinary Medical Association declared February as National Pet Dental Health Month several years ago to underscore the importance of oral healthcare. Did you know that up to 80 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats develop periodontal disease by the time they are three years old? This is alarming because untreated periodontal disease can cause infection by spreading to other areas of the body. It can also cause your pet to lose teeth, making it more difficult for him to chew food and get the nutrition he needs to remain healthy.

Veterinary Surgery
Dr. Henkes enjoys all aspects of companion animal practice and he has special interests in laser surgery, orthopedic surgery, and dentistry.

Laboratory Services
Heartworm testing in dogs requires only a simple blood test. Testing is a bit more complicated in cats and requires several blood tests before a veterinarian can make a diagnosis. This testing is typically done at the request of the cat owner when he or she suspects the animal may have contracted heartworm disease.
