We partner with our clients in making informed, compassionate decisions in all these stages of life. From pet dental care to vet wellness services, our office is dedicated to delivering the best veterinary care in Conway, AR!

Wellness

At Vilonia Animal Clinic, we believe in preventative care. Just as humans should visit their doctor regularly for wellness visits, so should your pet. Wellness visits allow the doctors to perform full physical and dental exams and perform routine testing and administer appropriate vaccines. It is also a time to discuss your pet’s diet, lifestyle changes, behavior changes or issues, and discuss routine medications and supplements and help determine if adjustments are necessary.

Surgery

Surgery can be especially stressful for both you and your pet, but we can alleviate some worries. Our doctors recommend pre-anesthetic blood work prior to surgical procedures. For certain patients, the doctors might recommend or require other testing, such as an ECG.

In addition to electrical monitoring, your pet will be assigned a technician to monitor anesthesia level, heart rate, and respiration throughout surgery and recovery

Here are some of the surgical procedures we perform:

Medical Services

Ultrasound

Ultrasounds are a safe, non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique that uses sound waves to examine your pet’s internal organs. The ultrasound is used to monitor pregnancy, in urine collection, bladder stone detection and in conjunction with radiographs when evaluating the chest and abdomen.

Digital Radiology (X-Ray)

Vilonia Animal Clinic uses our in-house digital radiography system as a primary, non-invasive tool to evaluate your pet’s bones and organs. X-Rays are useful in diagnosing:

Fractures

Dislocated Joints

Pregnancy

Foreign Object Ingestion/Obstruction

Impaction

Pneumonia

Heart Disease

Mass(es) in Abdomen or chest

Bladder Stones

OFA and PennHip Certification

Why does my dog need to be sedated for OFA or PennHIP radiographs?

Sedation allows for the best patient positioning with minimal repeat radiographs (less radiation exposure) and the best representation of the hip status.

Low-Level Laser & LED Light Therapy

Low-level lasers and LEDs produce a harmless, soothing laser beam of light that when used properly, can stimulate healing, resolve inflammation, and reduce pain. This therapy can treat:

Osteoarthritis & Degenerative Disc Disease

Muscle, Tendon, & Ligament Injuries

Wound Healing

Eye Injuries

Chronic Renal Disease

Other Medical Issues Involving

Inflammation & Pain

Dental Care

Proper Dental care and treatment are vital to your pets long-term health. Did you know that periodontal disease affects over 75% of dogs and cats over the age of three?

When left untreated, this can lead to:

Halitosis (Bad Breath)
Pain
Tooth Decay or Loss
Metabolic Disease (kidney & Liver Problems)

Good oral health can add years to your pet’s life and will improve their overall quality of life. All of our dental cleanings include ultrasonic scaling, high-speed polishing, and barrier sealant. We also have the tools and experience to perform extractions and more advanced oral surgery if needed.

At what age should my dog have the first dental cleaning?

It depends on the dog’s genetics. Some dogs will need their first cleaning around the age of 3 years. Other dogs may start much later. It is important to have their teeth examined annually.

Why does my dog need to have his/her anal glands expressed?

If a dog’s anal glands are not expressing properly when they have a bowel movement, the glands will become full, impacted, and then infected. Due to abnormal anal tone, diet, or various inflammatory conditions, many dogs need their anal glands manually expressed every few weeks to prevent serious issues.
