Consistent prevention not only protects your pet’s health, but also helps ensure a safer, happier home for your entire family.

  • Preventative Gastropexy

    Gastropexy surgeries are performed to help prevent gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV), or bloat, which can be life-threatening for certain breeds. This procedure involves surgically attaching the stomach to the abdominal wall to reduce the risk of it twisting. It is particularly beneficial for deep-chested, large breed dogs, which are more susceptible to GDV. Often performed during spay or neuter surgeries, gastropexy provides long-term protection against this dangerous condition, ensuring better health and peace of mind for both pets and their owners.
