Pets need different things at different stages of their lives.

That’s why HealthCheck360 is tailored to young, adult, and mature pets.

Each 30-minute check is led by an experienced veterinary nurse and looks at the areas that matter most for your pet’s life stage, from growth and development in younger pets to weight, dental health, mobility, and lifestyle in adults.

For mature pets, additional tests can help us look more closely at changes that can come with age.

Whatever stage they’re at, you’ll leave with personalised advice and practical guidance to help you care for them at home.

Your dog slowing down, or could there be something more going on?

Less enthusiasm for walks, stiffness after resting or changes in behaviour aren't always just signs of ageing. They could be signs your dog is living with chronic pain.

The good news? Recognising the signs early can help you get them the support they need to stay comfortable and active.

Use our online pain checker to help spot the signs and find out when to speak to your vet: https://ivc.co.uk/services/pain-management
