Our staff at Dao Vet is filled with passionate animal lovers who are here to help you and your pet! They are highly trained and dedicated to making sure that your pets receive the care and compassion they deserve every time they walk in the door!
We offer the following services to keep your pets healthy:
Acupuncture
Acupuncture treatment is when very small needles are inserted into the skin of an animal to promote healing. Each acupuncture point is a gathering of nerves, and cells, that have a specific effect on the body when stimulated. While typically used for arthritic pain control in older dogs, acupuncture can help reduce seizure episodes, control allergic skin conditions, manage heart disease, and much more!
Dao Vet practices acupuncture that is rooted in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine. This technique has been practiced by veterinarians for thousands of years, but recently has become more popular in our modern society. We utilize this method to balance your pet’s overall health and body, which gives them the maximum benefit during treatment.
Allergy Testing
Dogs and cats can be allergic to almost anything, similar to allergies in people. Pets can be allergic to allergens in their household environment, outside environment, or even their food. Symptoms can range from itchiness and ear or eye infections to constant licking, and even vomiting or diarrhea. Many pets suffer from allergies which can directly affect their quality of life, as well as their owner’s.
Behavior Management
We offer treatments such acupuncture and herbal therapy to help with a variety of behavioral issues that pet owners are faced with. Behavioral problems can be challenging and frustrating for both pets and pet owners, so it is our goal to work with you towards a solution.
Behavioral management is not a “one size fits all” plan for every pet. Here at Dao Vet we want to make your pet’s treatment specific for their needs. This might be done by working with your regular veterinarian, or a veterinary behaviorist. We want you to know that we are here to help, and are dedicated to help you find a solution!
Dermatology
Your pet’s skin is the largest organ of their body. Allergies, parasites, infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers can all affect your pet’s skin.
We offer in-home diagnostic testing, such as Animal Biome, which tests for a variety of chronic skin and GI issues.
Nutritional Counseling
Dao Vet offers nutritional counseling for pet owners of Dallas, TX and surrounding communities. If you have any questions about your pet’s diet or would like more information about your pet’s nutritional needs, please contact us today. We can set up a nutrition plan for your pet.
Obesity is a common problem among pets, as it can be easy to overfeed a cute dog or cat that knows how to beg. Being overweight is a serious problem for animals, and can cause real health problems. With proper diet and exercise, all pets should be able to meet their dietary needs and stay within a healthy weight range.
Herbal Therapy
Medicinal herbal therapy has been used in both humans, and animals, for thousands of years. We use herbs as medication to help keep what goes into your pet’s body as natural as possible. Typically herbal medications are used to enhance the prescription medications your pet is taking. However, often times we are able to reduce the dose of, or eliminate, prescription medications that have negative side effects with herbal medications.
