If you are going out of town or on vacation, There's no reason to worry about who is going to take care of your beloved pet. This is especially true if your pet has a chronic or acute medical condition that requires a caregiver with some veterinary knowledge and experience. Rather than trouble a neighbor or family member, the Animal Clinic of Bogalusa offers veterinarian-supervised boarding for dogs and cats.

She is the helpful voice on the other line of the phone. In her spare time, Lynda enjoys cooking, antique shopping, traveling and spending time with her grandchildren.
Dental hygiene is an important part of your pet's health, because dental disease can be associated with other serious health problems such as heart disease and kidney disease. Too often, diseases of the teeth and gums go unnoticed and can have serious health consequences. Many of these problems can be avoided by bringing your pet for regular veterinary dental check-ups and dental cleanings.
X-rays are an essential tool to help diagnose an issue at a faster pace. X-rays are very supportive for examining and monitoring many medical and surgical conditions, including your pet's bones, lungs, heart, abdomen and other areas of the body. An X-ray can help the doctor spot a fractured bone, detect tumors, help with the diagnosis of heartworm disease, or locate an obstruction or foreign body in your pet's intestine or stomach.
