We want more poop!

Bring your pet's fecal test to your pet's annual visit and you will get $5.00 off your pet's annual fecal test!

(fecal tests must be presented at your pet's wellness appointment to get this discount. No later submissions will be discounted).


Routine fecal examinations are used to detect intestinal parasites in your dog or cat. These parasites may include worms (such as hookworms, roundworms, and whipworms) and microscopic parasites (such as Giardia or Coccidia). Parasites not only cause intestinal disease in dogs and cats, some of them can also be infectious to humans (hookworms, roundworms, and Giardia). When pets live with people, especially children we have a responsibility to prevent transmission of disease as responsible pet parents.

In 2023, Washtenaw County had 1803 cases of intestinal parasites in pets that visited the vet and were tested. Can you imagine how many more cases there are in pets that we have not been tested? Many people do not give their pets year-round monthly parasite prevention. We see many cases develop over the winter when people stop giving their pet's monthly prevention.



We have all-in-one monthly preventatives that save you money and protect your Dogs

Simparica Trio and Nexgard Plus protect against heartworm disease, intestinal parasites, fleas, and ticks in a single once-a-month oral. You can get them at a discount and a safety/efficacy guarantee from our online pharmacy.

You can save money, protect your four-legged kid, and support our small business which helps us keep other clinic costs down.


February is Dental Health Month!

February is typically Dental Health Month. At WVH we celebrate dental health all year round! There is a 20% discount on your pet's dental cleaning any time of the year when you do a wellness annual lab work panel at your pet's annual wellness visit. Dental cleanings are safe for pets of all ages and prevent other diseases including heart failure and kidney disease. Your doctor will discuss your pet's needs during their exam. Your 20% discount will be automatically applied and cover any services your pet receives during their dental cleaning visit.
