WELLNESS EXAMS
Preventive Care Starts with Regular Checkups
Regular wellness exams give our veterinarians the opportunity to evaluate your pet from nose to tail and discuss any changes you have noticed at home.
During your pet’s appointment, we may discuss:
Overall health and behavior
Nutrition and weight
Dental health
Exercise and mobility
Vaccine recommendations
Parasite prevention
Recommended bloodwork or testing
Age-related health concerns
Many illnesses are easier to treat or manage when they are identified early.
Vaccinations
Personalized Protection for Your Pet
Vaccines help protect your pet from serious and potentially life-threatening diseases.
Our veterinarians will recommend a vaccination plan based on your pet’s age, medical history, lifestyle, travel, exposure to other animals, and individual risk factors.
We also offer vaccine titers when appropriate to help evaluate immunity and reduce unnecessary vaccination.
Safer Vaccines for Cats
Cats can be more susceptible to injection-site reactions and tumors.
For this reason, Fox Run Veterinary Hospital only carries and administers non-adjuvanted vaccines for feline patients, helping significantly reduce the risk of vaccine reactions.
Parasite Prevention
Protection Based on Your Pet’s Lifestyle
Fleas, ticks, intestinal parasites, and heartworm are becoming increasingly common in Colorado.
Our veterinarians can help you choose the right prevention plan based on your pet’s lifestyle, travel habits, outdoor exposure, and individual risk.

Heartworm prevention
Flea and tick prevention
Intestinal parasite screening

Senior Pet Care
Helping Senior Pets Stay Comfortable and Healthy
Helping Senior Pets Stay Comfortable and Healthy
Many dogs and cats are considered seniors around seven years of age, although this varies by species, breed, and size.
As pets age, regular examinations and yearly wellness bloodwork become increasingly important. These services help us identify subtle changes and detect illness before symptoms become more advanced.
Senior wellness care may include:
Comprehensive physical examinations
Annual wellness bloodwork
Nutrition recommendations
Weight-management support
Exercise and mobility planning
Arthritis and pain evaluation
Medication monitoring
Quality-of-life discussions
Our goal is to help your pet remain comfortable, active, and connected to your family throughout their senior years.
Microchipping
Permanent Identification for Your Pet
Microchipping is one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve the likelihood that a lost pet will be reunited with their family.
A tiny identification chip is placed beneath your pet’s skin during a quick and safe procedure. We will then explain how to register the chip and keep your contact information current.
When a lost pet is scanned by a veterinary hospital or animal shelter, the registered information can be used to contact their family.
Found a Lost Pet?
We are happy to scan lost or stray animals for a microchip.
Stop by during office hours, and a member of our team will assist you.
Dental Care
Dental Health Is Whole-Body Health
Untreated dental disease can cause pain, infection, and problems affecting your pet’s heart, liver, kidneys, and overall health.
Signs of dental disease may include:
Bad breath
Heavy tartar or calculus
Red or bleeding gums
Difficulty chewing
Dropping food
Eating on one side of the mouth
Pawing at the face
Decreased appetite
At-Home Dental Care
Home dental care may include:
Regular toothbrushing
Veterinary-approved dental chews
Dental diets
Water additives
Routine oral examinations
The Veterinary Oral Health Council provides a list of products that have been evaluated for effectiveness at vohc.org.
Professional Dental Procedures
Fox Run Veterinary Hospital provides professional dental care, including:
Dental examinations
Professional cleanings
Full-mouth dental radiographs
Surgical extractions
Bonded sealants for fractured teeth
Advanced treatment of dental disease
Every dental patient receives full-mouth radiographs while under anesthesia because significant dental disease often occurs beneath the gumline.
Preoperative bloodwork is also included before anesthesia so we can provide gold-standard care for every patient.
Pain Management
Helping Your Pet Feel More Comfortable
Pets cannot always tell us when they are hurting. Changes in behavior, movement, appetite, or routine may be signs that your pet is experiencing pain.
Pain may be associated with:
Arthritis
Injury
Surgery
Dental disease
Cancer
Chronic illness
Age-related mobility changes
Our veterinarians will evaluate your pet and create an individualized pain-management plan based on their condition and needs.
Treatment plans may include medications, injections, supplements, weight management, activity changes, rehabilitation recommendations, or other supportive care.
If you believe your pet may be in pain, please schedule an examination so we can help them feel more comfortable.
“I love Fox Run Veterinary! I have an older cat now, they have watched over her since the place opened. Genevieve is 15 and everyone there is so kind and helpful. They really work with your budget to make sure your pet gets what they need. They don’t wine and dine you and give you an enormous bill at the end. Not only that, they follow up with you, and always ask how she is doing. The best Veterinary I have been to in Colorado Springs! I totally recommend.”
