Urinalysis, or the analysis of urine, tells us about by-products
from many organs which include the kidneys and liver. Urine
gives us information about your animals hydration status and
its liver and kidneys. We can diagnose many diseases, such
as liver disease, diabetes, and kidney disease through
urinalysis. We can also determine if your animal is
dehydrated.

Feces: We recommend having feces checked and analyzed to determine whether your animal has an intestinal parasite, bacterial overgrowth, blood, or other intestinal problems. This is an important part of diagnostic workups and even routine exams. For more information on parasites and zoonotic disease (contractible to human) Click Here. |

Ear
cytology: You'll probably be asked if your dog or cat
has been shaking his head or scratching at his ears and if
you have noticed any odor coming from the ears. Your pet's
deep, curved ear canals provide protection for the inner
ear, but can be a snug home for parasites, microbes
(bacteria/yeast), and foreign objects. The veterinarian
will perform a thorough examination of the inner ear canal
including and ear cytology. To learn
