Say hello to Lenny!! He visited today for a checkup with Dr. Genevieve.
Did you know that lizards and other exotic pets need regular veterinary visits just like dogs and cats? ๐ฆ๐
Many reptiles are experts at hiding signs of illness, which means a problem can sometimes be advanced before you notice anything is wrong. Regular wellness exams allow us to monitor your petโs health and catch potential concerns early.
During an exotic wellness visit, we can evaluate:
๐ฆ Weight and body condition
๐ฅฌ Diet and nutrition
๐ก๏ธ Temperature, humidity & habitat setup
๐ฆด Bones and overall development
๐ Eyes, mouth & skin
๐ฉ Parasites and digestive health
โค๏ธ Overall health and behavior
Proper husbandry is a huge part of keeping reptiles healthy. Even small changes in lighting, temperature, humidity, diet, or supplementation can make a big difference in their long-term health.
Whether you have a bearded dragon, leopard gecko, iguana, chameleon, tortoise, snake, or another exotic companion, routine veterinary care is an important part of responsible pet ownership.
๐ Donโt wait until your exotic pet looks sick. Preventive care can help them live a longer, healthier life!
๐ Call State Road Animal Hospital to schedule your exotic petโs wellness exam.
Small pets deserve big care! ๐ฆ๐ข๐
