Welcome to Falcon Family Vet, where our veterinary team supports aging pets in Peyton, Falcon, and the surrounding areas with attentive, compassionate senior care.
Did you know pets age more quickly than people and can be considered seniors as early as 7 years old? Just like us, your pet’s health care needs change as they get older. As your pet ages, their nutritional needs, activity level, and daily routine can change as well.
But how can you tell the difference between normal aging and a health problem? Older pets often show subtle changes that can go unnoticed until a significant health concern has developed. Understanding the aging process is the best way to protect your pet, and our team is here to guide and support you through every stage of your pet’s life.
Senior wellness visits at Falcon Family Vet focus on keeping your pet comfortable, active, and healthy as they age.
We carefully evaluate your pet’s weight, joints, heart, lungs, teeth, eyes, and skin for changes related to aging.
Blood work, including a CBC, chemistry screen, and thyroid screen, helps us detect conditions such as kidney disease, diabetes, and thyroid problems early.
We invite you to share any changes you have noticed and ask questions. We welcome your participation in every decision about your pet’s care.
We recommend adjustments to diet, activity, pain management, or treatment to help your senior pet feel their best.
Because senior pets can hide illness and age quickly, regular checkups are essential. Early detection gives us more options to manage age-related conditions and keep your pet comfortable.
Routine screening can uncover problems like kidney disease, arthritis, or dental disease before they seriously affect your pet.
Managing pain and mobility issues helps your senior pet stay active and enjoy daily life.
Proactive senior care helps your pet stay healthier for longer, giving you more good years together.
Contact us if your older pet shows any of these changes:
These changes are not always just old age. Contact Falcon Family Vet so we can determine the cause and help.
We generally recommend wellness exams every six months for senior pets, since health can change quickly as pets age. Your veterinarian may recommend more frequent visits if your pet has an ongoing health condition. Keeping every scheduled appointment is one of the best ways to protect your senior pet.
