The Importance of Pet Laboratory Testing

When your pet isn’t feeling their best, finding out what’s wrong as quickly as possible is essential.

Pet laboratory testing is a critical component of veterinary care, much like it is in human medicine. These tests help veterinarians understand your pet’s overall health and diagnose specific medical conditions.

From identifying infections to evaluating organ function, laboratory tests provide valuable insights into your pet’s health so that we can offer the best treatment possible.

Types of Pet Laboratory Testing Available

Our in-house lab is equipped to perform a variety of tests to assess your pet’s health:

  • Blood Work: Blood tests are fundamental in diagnosing many conditions. They help us detect anemia, dehydration, infections, and even cancer. By analyzing red and white blood cell counts, we can understand how well your pet’s body is functioning and identify any abnormalities.
  • Urinalysis: A urinalysis provides information about your pet’s kidney function and can detect urinary tract infections, diabetes, and other metabolic issues. It’s a simple yet effective way to gain insights into your pet’s health.
  • Fecal Testing: Fecal tests check for parasites like roundworms and hookworms, which can cause health problems in pets. Regular fecal exams are essential for maintaining your pet’s digestive health and preventing parasitic infections.
  • Skin Scraping and Cytology: These tests help diagnose skin infections, allergies, and other dermatological conditions. By examining skin samples under a microscope, we can identify the presence of bacteria, fungi, or mites.
