Instead of waiting until your pet is doin\u2019 a sick, why not try to keep us healthy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only does good dog wellness care help keep your doggo fren happier and healthier, it can also help us live a heckin lot longer. What\u2019s not to like there? And while us puppers don\u2019t understand monies so well, there is something to be said for proactive pooch care helping to save a little bit in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastsacvet.com\/staff\/\">Our frens at East Sacramento Veterinary Center<\/a> know how important pet wellness is and so they even help hoomans to afford care with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastsacvet.com\/pet-wellness-plans.html\">pet wellness plans<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Floof Needs You!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If it were up to us doggos, we would rule the world. Until our balls and other fun treasures are accepted as valid currency, though, we need you hoomans to advocate and provide for us. So what does your pup need you to do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many components to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastsacvet.com\/pet-wellness.html\">dog wellness<\/a> and it can seem heckin\u2019 overwhelming. If you take the time to focus a little bit on each area, though, it is not so bad. Think about how you can do your doggo right in each of the following categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastsacvet.com\/blog\/for-lifelong-health-pet-wellness-exams-are-key\/\"><strong>Annual examinations<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u2014<\/strong>Doggos are not supposed to show when they are sick, so sometimes us woofers and floofers need a dogtor to figure out when something is wrong. Even though taking a doggo to the vet can do us a scare, it\u2019s important so that our dogtor can notice changes, talk to our hoomans about what they need to do, and recommend things to keep us borking and booping for a long time!<\/li><li><strong>Screening testing\u2014<\/strong>It\u2019s heckin better to catch a trouble early than when it\u2019s too late. Takin\u2019 some blood for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastsacvet.com\/blog\/is-your-dogs-heartworm-testing-up-to-date\/\">heartworm testing<\/a> or checking a poop when the dogtor says to is an important part of dog wellness care.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Good nutrition\u2014<\/strong>You is what you eats! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastsacvet.com\/forms\/appointment.html\">Ask my dogtor<\/a> about <a href=\"https:\/\/wsava.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Selecting-a-pet-food-for-your-pet-updated-2021_WSAVA-Global-Nutrition-Toolkit.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how to choose the best noms<\/a> for me.

Heartworms, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eastsacvet.com\/blog\/my-pet-has-fleas-how-you-can-help\/\">fleas<\/a>, ticks, and intestinal parasites are no frens. Maintaining a good parasite prevention routine at home is an important thing for your hooman caretakers to do.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Vaccinations\u2014<\/strong>Doin your dog a poke is not fun on the surface, but dieases like rabies, distemper, and parvovirus are bad news bears! Staying on top of recommended vaccinations is heckin important.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Dental care\u2014<\/strong>Taking care of my teefs is so important.
