Kenwood Animal Hospital

Preventive Care

Dental Care
If left untreated, dental disease can not only be painful and inhibit proper nutrition, but it can also lead to serious systemic issues that may threaten your pet's overall health before symptoms are noticeable. For those reasons, we strongly consider dental care an important piece of your dog's or cat's preventive health care program.
Vaccination
Vaccines are an excellent way to protect your pet. While some vaccines prevent common infectious diseases, others protect against dangers present in a pet's lifestyle. Kenwood Animal Hospital follows the vaccination protocols put forth by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), thus ensuring your pet receives the best possible veterinary care.
Veterinary Ophthalmology
Evaluate your pet's vision - Ocular conditions - such as glaucoma, corneal ulcers and dry eye - can be prevented or better treated through regular care and screenings.
Nutritional Counseling
Symptoms of heartworm are not always immediately apparent. Some dogs may show no signs of the disease while others may exhibit clinical signs, such as a mild, persistent cough, reluctance to move or exercise (lethargy), fatigue after only moderate exercise, reduced appetite and/or weight loss.
Comprehensive Examination
To support your efforts, the doctors at Kenwood Animal Hospital perform a thorough body condition evaluation during every physical examination, and give recommendations based on what we see. We can also provide you with important information on proper serving size, nutrient needs, and feeding strategies for your pet. With so many options available to you, we are here to help you navigate pet food claims so you can make the most informed choices.

Illness Treatment

Parasites Treatment and Control
Dangerous parasites are always present in the environment. We recommend regular fecal checks and deworming as the best way to prevent parasitic disease and the transmission of intestinal parasites to your pet and your family members.
Behavioral Disorder Treatment
Pain Management
Just as with humans, pain can have a negative effect on your pet which goes beyond physical discomfort. Pain after surgery can slow healing and worsen diseases like arthritis — and because our companion friends don't understand why they're experiencing pain, pain can cause behavioral issues and interfere with the bond between you and your pet. To minimize your pet's discomfort, we typically use a combination of local anesthetics, NSAIDs, and narcotic pain relievers. The exact protocol is tailored to each animal, and depends on a number of factors determined by the pre-surgery exam and during the procedure.
Vomiting Treatment
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment
Prescription diets benefit medical conditions such as liver disease, bladder and kidney disease, digestive problems, renal failure, food allergies, diabetes, and more. Kenwood Animal Hospital carries a diverse inventory of prescription foods and high-quality nutritional products. If your pet requires a prescription diet we do not carry, we can easily order it for you.

Infection Treatment

Leptospirosis Treatment
Illnesses such as Lyme disease, Leptospirosis, Distemper, Bordetella, Parvo virus, and Rabies can debilitate your dog and shorten his life. We also encourage you to vaccinate your cat against Feline Leukemia, Distemper and Rabies.
Anal Gland Infection Treatment

Chronic Condition Treatment

Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Palpate joints and muscles - By examining the joints, legs and other areas of the body, we are able to evaluate for swelling, decreased muscle tone and variations in muscle size that may indicate developing orthopedic issues. In older pets, we look for signs of arthritis, which can affect one or more joints and cause lameness, stiffness and joint pain.
Diabetes Treatment
Kidney Disease Treatment
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Dental disease, specifically periodontal disease, is the most common ailment affecting pet dogs and cats. According to the American Veterinary Dental Society, more than 80% of dogs and 70% of cats develop gum disease by the age of three years. Periodontal disease can have a serious impact on both your pet's well-being and general health.

Dental Surgery
Should we find any issues, such as evidence of gum or tooth erosion, gingivitis, or excessive plaque buildup, we will discuss this with you and offer treatment options. We are experienced dental practitioners and can offer a number of dental procedures and oral surgeries.
Veterinary Surgery
Whether performing a routine surgery or an emergency procedure, you can have confidence that the veterinarians and staff at Kenwood Animal Hospital will work hard to ensure each procedure is thorough, done with the utmost expertise, and is as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
Spaying and Neutering
Kenwood Animal Hospital is proud to participate in programs benefiting patrons of the Washington Animal Rescue League, District of Columbia Animal Control and Washington Humane Society, and the National Capital Area Spay and Neuter Center. We participated in the annual Bethesda Strut Your Mutt festival, which benefitted the Bethesda Chevy Chase Rotary Club, along with numerous other local school-based and civic fundraising events. In addition, Kenwood Animal Hospital supports serveral neighborhood associations, including the Bannockburn Estates Banner, and as a member of the Little Falls Village community, we assist our neighbors with aging-in-place.

Laboratory Services
Before your pet undergoes any surgical procedure, a thorough examination takes place. This exam includes a pre-surgical blood screening, which, along with your pet's anesthetic history, breed, preexisting conditions and age, will be used to determine a unique anesthesia protocol. These tests have the added benefit of establishing a baseline for the comparison of future blood tests.
X-Ray
Microchipping
A lost pet is a frightening situation with often devastating consequences. According to the American Humane Association, about 10 million dogs and cats are lost or stolen every year. A study published by the American Veterinary Medical Association revealed that dogs with microchips were 238% more likely to be returned to their families than dogs without them. For cats, the statistic is even more dramatic: those with microchips were 2,000% more likely to be returned home.

General Pet Care

Boarding
Grooming
While you travel for business or pleasure, allow your four-legged friend to enjoy a vacation with us! We provide a safe, fun, and luxurious boarding environment with options for supervised group play in our huge indoor daycare field and grooming services before going home! Each canine guest is housed in their own suite for privacy, comfort, and safety.
Senior Pet Care
Congratulations! By taking the time to learn more about the special needs of your senior aged pet, you have taken the first step toward providing the best care for your friend in his or her golden years. The staff at Kenwood Animal Hospital places an emphasis on senior care, and we're proud of the special interest we take in geriatric medicine and care of chronic disease.
Dog Training

Beth and her team of certified trainers offer puppy and basic manners classes in the Canine Clubhouse.
