Diet and Nutrition

Proper nutrition is one of the easiest ways to keep your pet healthy. At Pet Pals Holistic Veterinary Hospital, we offer individualized nutrition counseling and customize a recommendation for your unique pet. Dr. Olden-Stahl will perform a thorough body-condition evaluation during every physical examination and can give nutritional recommendations based on what we see. She can also provide you with important information on proper serving size, nutrient needs, and feeding strategies for your individual pet.

Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative medicine is a fast-emerging branch of veterinary medicine in which the body’s own cells are used to heal and ultimately regenerate damaged tissues in acute and chronic conditions. Regenerative therapies don't merely mask pain symptoms but repair damage within the body.

Common Uses of Regenerative Medicine:

Osteoarthritis
Ligament Injuries
Tendon Injuries
Burn Wounds
Open Wounds
Bone Grafts
Certain Spinal Conditions

What to expect:

Your pet would be admitted to the clinic for sedation, a blood sample would be collected and processed. Then an injection of the concentrated platelets from your pet would be injected into the affected joint, and your pet would discharge the same day.

Advantages of Regenerative Medicine over medications:

Natural product
Minimal side effects
Repairs the injury

Advantages of Regenerative Medicine over surgery:

Less cost
Less recovery
Quicker return to activity
Less rehab

End of Life Care

We understand that regardless of the situation, saying good-bye to a beloved pet is one of the most difficult situations a pet owner will ever make. Our staff of compassionate, caring professionals can help you through this painful experience. We will work with you to ensure your pet's comfort and dignity during their last days and final moments. We are happy to accommodate special requests and help you make arrangements for cremation or other options. Sedation will be administered prior to performing the euthanasia to ensure your pet is at ease. We are here to help you through this transition and make this process easier for you.

If you would like to assess your pet's quality of life, please use this Quality of Life Assessment from Ohio State University.

Pharmacy

We maintain a fully stocked pharmacy to fill your pet’s prescription needs quickly and conveniently. We also encourage you to browse our online pharmacy for convenient delivery and additional products.

Puppy and Kitten Care

The dedicated team at Pet Pals Holistic Veterinary Hospital is here to help you ensure your puppy or kitten gets off to the best start possible. Make sure to schedule your new pet’s first appointment within the first few weeks of bringing them home. The initial visit provides us an opportunity to meet and offers you a chance to ask questions. We strive to address any concerns you may have about owning a puppy or kitten and teach you the best ways to care for your new family member. This is a special time for you and your pet, and we want to ensure you feel supported in this transition. Our comprehensive approach addresses your pet’s needs from vaccinations to a proper diet. During your pet’s first visit we will conduct a physical exam, develop a vaccine schedule, discuss your pet’s diet, and develop a parasite prevention plan. We will also discuss the importance of getting your pet spayed or neutered and microchipped.

Senior Pet Care

As pets age, their needs change. Pets over the age of 7 are more susceptible to diseases and heal more slowly, however, with proper care you can help your pet live a longer, happier life. Our team at Pet Pals Holistic Veterinary Hospital can help you navigate your pet’s senior years with you. We do recommend more frequent wellness exams which will help us detect problems before they become advanced. Additionally, we may recommend changes to your pet’s diet, exercise, and other aspects of their healthcare as they mature. It can be very difficult to detect when your pet is in pain, but there are some signs that they may be experiencing discomfort in their older years. If you notice any of the following, your pet may be in pain:

Difficulty getting up, easing into a comfortable position or limping.
Fatigue, including decreased stamina on walks.
Reluctance to be groomed, picked up or touched in certain areas.
Urinary or fecal accidents

If any of these behaviors begin to occur, visit us so a source of the pain can be identified, and treatment can begin.

Surgical Services

Pet Pals Holistic Veterinary Hospital offers a wide range of basic surgical services, from spays and neuters to soft tissue and orthopedic procedures. During your pet’s procedure, their safety and comfort are our top priority. We will develop a safe and effective anesthetic protocol for your pet to ensure they experience very little pain. Our state-of-the-art hospital is equipped with the latest anesthetic and monitoring technology to ensure your pet is safe and comfortable throughout their surgery. We are here to answer any questions regarding your pet's specific surgery and even offer a pre-surgical consultation as an essential part of the process. Your veterinarian will also provide information on postoperative care to ensure your pet is recovers quickly.

Vaccinations

Vaccinations are an essential part of your pet’s health care plan starting from the time they are very young. Pets should begin their vaccinations between 6 and 12 weeks of age and require boosters throughout their life. Many common diseases can easily be prevented by vaccinating your pet.

Core vaccines, or essential vaccines, for canines include rabies and DAPP. Core vaccines for felines include rabies and FVRCP. Depending on your geographical area and pet’s exposure, you may also consider optional, non-core vaccines. Noncore vaccines for canines include leptospirosis, bordetella, parainfluenza, lyme disease and canine influenza. Noncore vaccines for felines include feline leukemia.

At Pet Pals Holistic Veterinary Hospital we’ll help you create a vaccine schedule appropriate for your pet’s age, breed, lifestyle, and environment. We will also review any possible side effects of your pet’s vaccinations and how to address them.

Wellness Care

At Pet Pals Holistic Veterinary Hospital we recommend regular comprehensive wellness exams from the time pets are young. Wellness exams are a critical part of your pet’s healthcare routine regardless of size, breed, or age. Routine wellness exams are important to maintain your pet’s wellbeing and detect any medical issues before they progress. During your pet’s exam, we will assess their overall body condition, eyes, ears, mouth, internal organs and systems, skin and much more. We will also discuss any other recommended services, such as dental cleanings or diagnostic testing. If any areas of concern are identified during your pet’s exam, we will develop a treatment plan together.
