- Dental CarePets need routine dental care to prevent gum disease. Good dental health is about more than a pearly white smile; it affects your pet's overall health too. Over time, oral bacteria from the mouth can enter the bloodstream and affect your pet's heart, lung, liver, and kidneys.
- VaccinationYou can now store vaccination records and appointment schedules for your pet in the palm of your hand with our simple, easy-to-use app!

- Nutritional CounselingProper nutrition is an essential component of your pet's overall health. Are you feeding your dog a healthy diet? Your veterinarian can recommend the proper diet for your pet based on important factors such as age, health, weight, and breed. If your pet needs to gain or lose weight, we can suggest special diets and tips to help you manage your pet's weight.
- Comprehensive ExaminationLike a credit card, but better. CareCredit® works just like a regular credit card, but without high interest rates, annual fees or pre-payment penalties. CareCredit® offers no-interest and low interest payment terms, zero hidden fees, and low minimum monthly payments. You can use your CareCredit® card over and over for all your pet’s follow-up care as well as annual exams and vaccines. So you can focus on what really matters, like playing fetch and learning new tricks.
- Parasites Treatment and ControlVeterinarians perform fecal exams to test for the presence of internal parasites, such as roundworm, hookworm, and giardia. It's very important to make sure your pet is parasite-free, because these parasites can infect humans as well. We recommend combining your pet's monthly preventative medicine with yearly fecal exams for the best protection from parasites.
- Behavioral Disorder TreatmentMany diseases that were once deadly for pets can now be prevented completely with vaccines. It's important to make sure that your pet has the proper vaccinations to protect them from these diseases. We provide all core and many non-core dog and cat vaccines, including those for rabies, canine and feline distemper, lyme disease, and more. Your veterinarian can recommend the proper vaccination program for your pet based on his or her individual needs.
- Pain Management
- Skin Condition and Allergy TreatmentAt these visits, your veterinarian is trained to assess the overall health and wellbeing of your pet. We'll check your pet's skin and coat, eyes, ears, mouth, and abdominal region. If we notice anything of concern, we may recommend diagnostic tests to ensure your pet is safe.
- Urinary Tract Infection TreatmentIs a simple test that can be analyzed in minutes, commonly identifying conditions such as diabetes, kidney failure, urinary tract infections and urinary tract tumors. Please let us know if you notice a change in your pet's urine (color, odor or amount), if your pet is struggling to urinate or if they are have accidents.
- Diabetes Treatment
- Kidney Disease TreatmentJust like puppies and kittens, a senior pet's immune system gradually weakens, so it is critical to keep a closer eye on changing health trends and age-related conditions. This will protect them from various health risks such as diabetes, blindness, arthritis, dementia, kidney disease, liver disease, cancer and more.
- Periodontal Disease TreatmentDid you know that over 80% of dogs and 70% of cats suffer from dental disease by the age of three? Dental disease, also known as periodontal disease or gum disease, is the most common health condition affecting dogs and cats. Hiram Animal Hospital can help!
- Wound and Fracture CareOur clinic is equipped with advanced imaging technology to diagnose internal conditions. X-rays help our veterinarians detect and identify many different health problems, including bone fractures and breaks, bladder stones, and chronic arthritis. Ultrasound provides an even more precise look at the internal organs, helping veterinarians detect cysts and tumors or monitor heart conditions.
- Dental SurgeryIf we see signs of gum disease during your pet's wellness exam, we may recommend following up with more extensive dental care, ranging from a professional cleaning to dental surgery. We also recommend you look for out the symptoms of dental disease at home so that you can alert us to any potential problems.
- Veterinary SurgeryWhether it’s a routine checkup or emergency surgery, you shouldn’t have to worry about how to get the best medical care for the pet you love. That’s why we’re pleased to offer CareCredit®, North America’s leading client payment program.

- Declawing
- Spaying and NeuteringSpay-neuter is a simple and safe procedure with many benefits for you and your pet. Spaying your female pet or or neutering your male pet minimizes behavioral problems associated with natural sexual instinct, such as roaming and aggressive behavior. Choosing to spay or neuter your pet also has health advantages. Spaying eliminates the risk of mammary problems and uterine cancer, while neutering stamps out the prospect of testicular cancer or prostate issues.
- Laboratory ServicesIf your pet isn't feeling well, we're here to diagnose the problem and help your pet feel better sooner. Our clinic is equipped with modern diagnostic technology, including an on-site laboratory for processing blood work as well as advanced imaging in the form of radiology and ultrasound. These resources help us diagnose problems quickly and accurately so that we can get started on your pet's treatment right away.
- X-Ray
- Dental RadiologyDuring your pet's annual wellness visit, you can expect your veterinarian to examine your pet's teeth and gums for signs of dental disease. However, most dental disease occurs below the gumline, where it cannot be seen. This means that oftentimes more thorough examination is needed to determine the extent of the problem. You veterinarian may recommend dental x-rays to assess the health of the jaw and the tooth roots and a dental cleaning to remove plaque and tartar from the gum line. Dental cleaning is done under anesthesia to allow for the most complete and safe cleaning.
- MicrochippingWe are experts in the specialized care young pets need. Since puppies and kittens are more vulnerable to diseases and illnesses due to an undeveloped immune system, it is essential to keep up with timely physical examinations, vaccines and diagnostics. At your pet's first visit we will also discuss the importance of microchipping, spay/neuter procedure, parasite prevention, training and nutrition.
- BoardingIf your pet needs grooming services or if you are going out of town, we also happily offer safe and comfortable boarding and grooming services.
- GroomingGrooming services help pets look their best. In addition, pet grooming is preventative! Grooming services are performed gently and with your pet's comfort in mind, allowing our team of veterinary professionals to pinpoint potentially underlying health concerns such as parasite infections and skin allergies.
- Senior Pet CareIf you schedule regular wellness visits for your senior sweetheart, there is no need to fret! This will help them live the longest life possible with optimal wellness. At Hiram Animal Hospital, we recommend senior pet owners to bring their pet in at least twice a year for preventive health screenings and care. Keep in mind, your pet may appear perfectly healthy, but that does not guarantee the absence of disease and illness.
