Healthcare for Your Dog

Whether your pet was adopted from the Humane Society of Missouri or came from someplace else, he or she will need a health examination and to be vaccinated. Below are services we offer for your dog's health.

  • Wellness exams and preventative medicine including vaccinations, heartworm medicine and flea and tick products
  • Microchipping - a permanent form of ID for your dog. (Your dog should always wear a collar with two phone numbers on the ID tag.)
  • Treatment and advice for behavior problems including house-training, car-sickness or fear of storms.
  • Obedience training
  • Dental cleanings and extractions, because owners often overlook the care of their dog's teeth, leading to discomfort, decay and infection.
  • Diagnostic tests such as x-rays, ultrasounds and endoscopies to see any problems that might be occurring inside your pet, such as broken bones and tumors
  • In-house laboratory tests such as urinalysis to check for bladder infections, fecal analysis to check for worms, and blood profiles to diagnose diabetes, liver or kidney disease
  • Surgeries to repair wounds or to remove tumors or foreign bodies
  • Orthopedic procedures for fractured bones, hip dysplasia and knee problems
  • Medical treatments for illnesses such as parvovirus, heartworm disease, skin diseases, eye/ear diseases, heart and kidney diseases and diabetes
