Renton Veterinary Hospital Pricing Updates

Dear Valued Clients,

We hope this message finds you and your furry friends well.

At Renton Veterinary Hospital, our commitment to providing exceptional care for your beloved pets remains unwavering. We understand that times are challenging, and financial considerations are at the forefront of everyone’s decisions. It’s with this understanding that we want to inform you of an upcoming adjustment to our pricing, effective Monday, January 6, 2025.

This decision has not been made lightly. Like many businesses, we are facing rising costs for the quality supplies, medications, and services necessary to ensure the best care for your pets. Additionally, we are dedicated to supporting our hardworking staff with a livable wage that reflects their skill and dedication.

We also want to assure you that we have thoroughly researched pricing within our area to ensure that our fees remain fair and reasonable. Our goal is to provide accessible, high-quality care for your pets without allowing costs to overshadow your ability to make the best medical decisions for their well-being.

Our team is so grateful for each and every one of our clients and patients. We truly love what we do and wouldn’t be working here if we didn’t have a genuine passion for animals and their well-being. Your trust and support mean everything to us, and it inspires us to continue providing the highest standard of care.

We also recognize that the last few months have brought significant changes to our clinic. We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to those of you who have stayed with us during this time as we continue our search for a full-time veterinarian to join our team. We are incredibly fortunate to have the same Relief Veterinarians working with us to ensure consistent care for our patients.

As we head into the new year, we are pleased to share that our current Relief Veterinarians will continue their schedules. We are so grateful to continue working with Dr. Rouch, Dr. Smith and Dr. Mayo into 2025. Dr. Mayo will remain the dedicated veterinarian performing all surgeries. We are dedicated to ensuring the health and happiness of your pets, and we are grateful for the trust you place in us.

We deeply appreciate your commitment to the health and well-being of your pets during this difficult economy. Your trust and partnership mean the world to us, and we remain dedicated to providing the highest quality care for your cherished companions.

To provide clarity, any price estimates you have received from our clinic—whether printed or on file—will be honored until their expiration date.

If you have any questions or concerns about this change, please do not hesitate to reach out. Our practice manager will be happy to assist you and provide additional information as needed.

Thank you for your understanding and continued trust in us. We look forward to serving you and your pets for years to come.

Warm regards,

Maritza

Importance of Pet Dental Health

Just like humans, our four-legged fur friends require preventative dental care, and our veterinarians will make sure they get it. At Renton Veterinary Hospital, we treat patients and their beloved pets just like our own family.

We know how important it is to protect your pet’s oral health and treat dental problems as they occur. We offer dental care for dogs and cats, including dental exams, dental cleanings, injury treatment, and dental disease care.

Why is pet dental care so critical?

Your pets depend on their pearly whites to eat, fetch, play, groom, and more. Their dental health is directly related to their quality of life, so owners must stay on top of routine dental care. Since pets cannot communicate discomfort or pain as easily as humans can, it’s essential to have our professionals routinely take a look at their teeth.

Good oral hygiene prevents most painful and uncomfortable dental problems, ranging from tooth loss to more serious dental diseases and injuries. By keeping your pet’s teeth clean and bringing them in for regular exams, they can avoid painful and inconvenient consequences (not to mention thousands of dollars in vet bills) later in life.

What are the signs and symptoms of dental problems?

All pets need regular dental exams, but if your pet is already showing signs of a possible dental problem, it’s very important to come in as soon as possible. Here are some of the most common pet dental problems that require attention from our vet:

Bad breath
Broken teeth
Loose teeth
Refusal to eat
Bleeding from the mouth
Swelling around the mouth
Abnormal chewing
Dropping food while eating
Abnormal drooling
Discolored teeth
Teeth coated in tartar
Extra teeth

If your pet shows any of these symptoms, call today to make an appointment with our veterinarian. Some pets may even become irritable when they have dental problems. Any changes in your pet’s behavior should prompt a visit to your veterinarian. Always be careful when evaluating your pet’s mouth because an animal in pain may bite.

We will closely examine your pet’s mouth before scheduling a more thorough dental exam and cleaning. During this exam, your pet will be under anesthesia to reduce stress, pain, and injury risks, as we will examine their mouth and fully clean, scale, and polish each tooth.

If you have any questions about our services or to book an appointment, please get in touch with us today at (425) 255-8676.
