Pain Management

At Bobtown Pet Clinic we are committed to being an advocate for your pet. We pay attention to the comfort of your companion. We are convinced that should your pet become injured or even undergo routine surgery, their comfort is directly related to the speed of recovery.

Older pets often suffer from Osteoarthrits (OA) and require therapy to keep them mobile and comfortable. We not only implement the safest pain medications for your pet, but can make suggestions/referrals for physical therapy to help you older pet stay mobile and pain-free.

The American Animal Hospital Association has initiated guidelines and protocols for veterinarians to follow regarding pain management, and we work hard to follow these guidelines.

Here is some information on how to tell if your dog or cat is painful:
