Preventative medicine is one of the best ways to improve the likelihood of pets living a longer, healthier life. Rather than treating an illness once it has become manifest, preventative medicine looks for early signs and treats them before the condition becomes serious or life-threatening.

As the “little vet with the big heart”, our staff at Sykesville Veterinary Clinic believes that preventative medicine should not only apply to humans, but also to their pets. With that in mind, we recommend an annual checkup for your pets, including dogs.
