Services

Wellness Exam

At Alvin Animal Clinic, we truly believe that regular examinations are vital to your pet’s overall health. It allows our veterinarians to evaluate your pet’s overall well-being while learning more about you and your pet(s).

With routine examinations, our veterinarians will thoroughly examine your pets. This will also ensure they stay up to date on vaccinations and other preventative care that is important for good health, such as heartworm prevention and regular deworming.

Our hope with routine examinations is that we can catch potential problems before they become serious ones.

Surgery

Spaying

By spaying your female pet, you’re protecting her against potentially deadly diseases including bacterial infections, reproductive tract diseases, and several types of cancer.

Neutering

By neutering your male pet, you’re reducing the risk or eliminating his risk for prostate and testicular cancer, as well as sexually transmitted diseases. Neutering will also reduce or eliminate undesirable and embarrassing behavior including roaming, fighting, humping, and spraying. In addition, neutering your pet will help control the dog and cat overpopulation problem, keeping more animals out of shelters.

Soft Tissue Surgery

The most common soft tissue surgery performed on pets is the removal of masses or lumps. Most of these masses, once removed and tested, are found to be benign (nonharmful); however, occasionally they are more serious. Early removal and accurate diagnosis of a lump are necessary to improve the outcome in your pet if the mass is cancerous.

Eye Surgery

We perform many types of eye surgeries in our clinic because we want to ensure that our patients receive the best possible outcome. These surgeries include eyelid surgeries (entropion and ectropion), cherry eye repair, and corneal ulcer repair (conjunctival flap surgeries). Give us a call today for more information on these procedures.

Dentistry

Imagine what your mouth would feel like if you never brushed your teeth or went to the dentist. For many dogs and cats, this is a painful reality. According to the American Veterinary Dental Society, more than 80% of dogs and 70% of cats have dental disease by the age of 3. Dental (or periodontal) disease is the most frequently diagnosed health problem in pets, and we recommend that you have a veterinarian evaluate your pet’s dental health at least once a year.

Schedule your pet’s dental exam today! We can also help show you how to brush your pet’s teeth and recommend foods and treats that will help combat plaque and tartar buildup.

Treatments

Preventative Medicine

Flea Prevention & Control

Fleas can cause problems for pets ranging from minor to life-threatening. Not only can these parasites cause severe itching, irritation, and allergies, but they can also transmit tapeworms and diseases. Make an appointment today and have your pet checked and/or treated for fleas.

Heartworm Prevention

There’s an easy way to keep your dog or cat safe, by administering monthly heartworm preventatives. Most heartworm medications also protect your pet against other parasites, such as roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, ear mites, fleas, and ticks. We can recommend the best regimen of prevention for your pet upon visiting.

Tick Prevention

Don’t panic if you find a tick on your dog or cat, even if your pet is on a preventative. Some preventatives kill ticks after they’ve come in contact with your pet. Do not hesitate to ask us any questions you might have.

Radiology

X-rays

When we need to figure out what’s wrong with your pet, we routinely use x-rays to help identify the cause of the problem, rule out possible problems or provide a list of possible causes. We may also use x-rays during a wellness exam to diagnose potential problems before they become serious.

Boarding

Ease your concerns about leaving your pet behind while you’re away: Let our qualified staff take care of him or her. We will provide your dog or cat with a safe, comfortable, “home away from home” atmosphere. We are happy to accommodate any special care or needs your pet might have. Just let us know when you make the reservation.

We provide amenities such as clean bedding and food and water bowls, but feel free to bring your own if you’d prefer. Toys and other personal items that are washable are welcome. Give us a call at (281) 585-5183 to book your boarding appointment today!

To keep all our patients as healthy as possible, we require pets that are boarding with us to have current rabies and distemper vaccinations, along with other species-specific vaccinations. We also require that most vaccinations be given at least two weeks before boarding.
