Veterinarian offices tend to be in most built up areas as well as in rural spots. When you decide to find a veterinarian you’ll find that you generally have several choices.  But not all vets offer the same suite of services. Some may even offer services you didn’t realize you could get from your local veterinarian.

Some veterinarian offices will offer the basics, check-ups, vaccinations, spaying or neutering, and basic veterinary care.  Some other vets have specialized services in additional areas as well. You might opt for the second type, so you’ll know you have access to more than just the basics. Below are some of the extras that could be available to you.

Animal Boarding

Pet hotel services could also be offered from your veterinarian and this could put your mind at ease knowing your pet is being cared for by professionals. Some vet offices who offer pet hotel / pet boarding services will also offer you the ability to do online chats with your pet, which could put you both at ease while you are apart. Knowing your pet is well looked after when you’re away from home, whether for a vacation or for some sort of emergency or business trip can put your mind at ease.

Dog Training

Obedience schools are not abundant everywhere and instead of seeking out a school, why not see if your vet offers such services? A well-trained dog is a happier dog as he or she knows what you expect from a behavioral standpoint and this can mean things are much smoother at home.

Play Groups for Dogs

Dogs who are well-socialized and who get plenty of exercise tend to be happier and better behaved dogs. Your vet might offer play groups for dogs with socialization and exercise as part of the incentive package.

Grooming

Pet grooming ensures good hygiene for your pet, reduced allergens at your home, and a cleaner home. If your vet offers this service, it’s a huge time-saver from finding a groomer.

Pet Products

Your veterinarian can also provide you with food and skin care products as well as neutraceuticals to help you care for your pet
