PREVENTATIVE CARE

At the Chittenden Veterinary Clinic, we offer a variety of services to meet your pet's needs. From the time your pet is born and throughout their entire life, we strive to meet your pet's needs at a reasonable cost to your family.  It starts with puppy and kitten vaccines.  We generally see puppies and kittens every 3-4 weeks from the time they are adopted until they are 4+ months old, then yearly.  During that time, we take the time to educate you on which vaccines your pet's needs depending on their lifestyle.  We do not do "cookie-cutter" medicine.  We individualize our care to meet the lifestyle needs of your pet.  For example, a pet that never leaves the house or yard needs different vaccines than a pet that goes to parks and daycares regularly.   At puppy and kitten visits we also educate about parasites.  Internal parasites include those that live in your pet's guts or blood. External parasites feed on the pet's skin (fleas/ticks).   We offer a variety of parasite prevention products.  Let us customize preventative care to meet your pet's needs!

DENTISTRY

We have some of the best dental equipment because we understand the importance of oral health!  Proper dental care can extend your pet's life and improve their quality of life.  Ask one of our vets about  getting a dental cleaning done on your pet!

LABWORK

For urgent matters, we can do labwork in-house.  However, we frequently send our labwork to IDEXX labs to get "more bang for our buck" when labwork is non-urgent. Via IDEXX, we can offer a wide variety of diagnostic testing including bloodwork, fecal analysis, urinalysis , cytology and histopathology.
