The BCVS Blog offers helpful information about care and prevention for your pet.
Having your female dog or cat spayed and your male dog or cat neutered is beneficial to your pet's health, your happiness as an owner, and the good of your community.
Read MoreVaccinating your pet is important, as it prevents infectious diseases and can protects against potential illness. Vaccinations are relatively inexpensive, especially in comparison to the cost of treating the diseases if contracted. There are a range of different illnesses that vary from region to region, and you can work with your veterinarian to address your pet’s specific needs.
Read MoreJust as in people, weight management and reduction is a common problem for cats and dogs. Obesity in pets is often caused by over eating, medical disorders, possibly neutering or spaying, inadequate physical activity, and aging. At Beaverton Crossroads we will partner with you to find the cause of your pet's weight issue, and can even design a diet specific to your cat or dog's needs.
