Sick Pet Care

At Wesson Animal Clinic, we understand that having a sick pet is stressful. Our clinic and caring staff are fully equipped to examine your pet, diagnose the underlying cause of illness, and provide them with safe and effective treatments to relieve their symptoms and help them recover.

How to Tell If Your Pet Is Sick

Pets instinctively hide signs of sickness, so the earliest symptoms can be difficult to detect. Observe your pet’s behavior, routine, appetite, appearance, energy level, and personality for subtle changes that could indicate the earliest signs of illness.

Fast Diagnosis With Our In-House Laboratory for Sick Pets

Before we can provide a pet with safe and effective treatment, our veterinarians must first diagnose the underlying cause.
Many illnesses in pets result in very similar symptoms. As a result, it can be difficult to diagnose the underlying cause of illness with just a physical examination.
Our in-house diagnostic laboratory allows us to quickly analyze samples from your pet’s tissues or bodily fluids to look for abnormalities that can help us determine a definitive diagnosis of your pet’s illness.
Once we understand what your pet has – whether that be an infection, virus, allergies, a systemic illness, or something else – we can begin administering treatment right away.

Treatment for Sick Pets

Our veterinarians first take action to stabilize your pet’s condition and relieve their symptoms.
Treatment for your sick pet’s illness will vary depending on the diagnosis. Treatments can include a variety of approaches, such as:
Our veterinarians always recommend the least invasive treatment that will still be effective for pets. With our on-site pet pharmacy, we can provide you with everything you need to care for your pet.
