Learn About How We Can Help Prevent Diseases in Your Pet

Dog Care

At Clinton Veterinary Hospital, our staff is committed to providing the best veterinary care for your dog. Located in Clinton, Massachusetts, we provide routine wellness care, vaccinations, flea and tick prevention, surgical care, and emergency treatment. We want to provide your pet the care they require while providing you with the information and support you need.

Adult Dog Wellness Schedule

Adult dogs should start their yearly wellness schedule one year after their last puppy vaccinations. The adult dog wellness schedule for one year includes the following:

  • Lyme Disease Booster
  • DA2PP Booster
  • Bordetella (Kennel Cough) If Needed
  • Rabies One Year/Three Year Booster
  • 4DX Test (Tests for Heartworm, Lyme Disease, Anaplasmosis, & Ehrlichiosis)
  • Heartworm Preventative
  • Fecal Examination
  • Flea & Tick Preventative

About the 4DX Test & Heartworm Prevention

Our veterinary hospital requires a yearly 4DX test for heartworm prevention to be dispensed. All diseases this test detects are treatable and can significantly affect your dog's health if left untreated. The only way for us to ensure that your pet receives proper treatment is to test yearly or when one of these diseases is suspected.



Heartworm prevention is recommended year-round to protect your pet. We primarily use Interceptor™, a once-a-month, flavored chewable tablet. Interceptor prevents heartworm disease and controls dogs' roundworm, hookworm, and whipworm infestation.

Flea & Tick Prevention

Flea and tick prevention is also recommended year-round, as flea and tick infestations are much easier to prevent than to treat once established. Fleas not only cause itchy suffering and rashes to both you and your pets, but they also transmit tapeworms. In severe cases, fleas and ticks cause anemia, resulting in severe health complications for your pet.


Ticks can transmit Lyme disease and the lesser known diseases, ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis. All of these tick diseases can cause severe joint pain, fever, lethargy, and organ deterioration if left untreated.

Cat Care

Come to Clinton Veterinary Hospital in Clinton, Massachusetts. Our friendly staff is committed to exceptional care for your cat, from kitten vaccinations to surgical procedures.

Feline Leukemia & AIDS

At our veterinary hospital, we recommend that all kittens be tested for feline leukemia and AIDS before being exposed to other pets or before starting vaccinations.


This test requires only three drops of blood and can be done while you wait. It only takes 10 minutes to get the results.
