Geriatric Pet Care in Newberg, OR
Compassionate Senior Pet Care for a Healthy, Comfortable Life
As pets age, their health needs evolve. Senior pets often require more frequent checkups, advanced diagnostics, and lifestyle adjustments to maintain their comfort and quality of life. At Family Pet Clinic of Newberg, we treat aging dogs and cats with the respect and care they deserve—helping them stay active, comfortable, and happy through every stage of their senior years.
Understanding the Needs of Senior Pets
Aging can bring a variety of physical and behavioral changes, from arthritis and dental disease to vision loss or cognitive decline. Because pets age faster than people, regular wellness exams become increasingly important for early detection and management of age-related conditions.
Our senior pet care services include:
- Comprehensive wellness exams and lab testing
- Arthritis and pain management
- Nutritional counseling for changing metabolism
- Dental care and oral health maintenance
- Monitoring of kidney, liver, and heart function
- Weight management and exercise planning
- Support for cognitive or behavioral changes
Early Detection for Better Quality of Life
Many chronic conditions develop slowly and show few outward signs at first. Routine screening—such as bloodwork and urinalysis—helps us detect problems before they cause discomfort. Early diagnosis allows us to intervene sooner and design treatment plans that extend your pet’s longevity and improve their day-to-day comfort.
Supporting Comfort and Mobility
Our clinic offers pain management and integrative options such as acupuncture to reduce inflammation and promote mobility. We also provide recommendations for joint supplements, therapeutic diets, and environmental adjustments to make home life easier for aging pets.
Loving Care for Pets in Their Golden Years
We understand the deep bond between families and their senior pets. Our goal is to help you make informed, compassionate decisions while ensuring your pet enjoys a fulfilling, comfortable life.
