Pet Wellness & Preventive Care in Regina, SK
Proactive care is the best way to keep your pet healthy and happy for years to come. At Victoria Veterinary Clinic, we provide complete wellness and preventive care services—including routine checkups, vaccinations, and nutritional counselling—to protect your pet’s health at every life stage.
The Importance of Preventive Veterinary Care
Preventive care is the cornerstone of lifelong health for pets. Regular wellness visits allow us to detect early signs of illness, manage developing conditions, and help your pet avoid preventable diseases. These visits are also an opportunity to monitor changes in weight, behaviour, appetite, and dental health.
By addressing issues early, you can minimize the need for expensive or stressful treatments later. Our in-clinic diagnostic equipment and fully stocked pharmacy mean we can often begin treatment before you even leave our hospital—providing fast, effective care when it matters most.

Physical Exams
Thorough physical examinations are a key part of your pet’s overall preventive care. These exams give our veterinarians the opportunity to assess your pet’s health from head to tail, identify any changes since their last visit, and detect early signs of illness before they become serious.
During a physical exam, we carefully evaluate:
- Heart and lung function
- Eyes, ears, skin, and coat condition
- Teeth and gums for early signs of dental disease. Learn more about our dentistry services.
- Joint mobility and muscle tone
- Body weight and overall condition
- Abdomen and lymph nodes for abnormalities
Regular physical exams help establish a baseline for your pet’s health, making it easier to spot subtle changes over time. For senior pets, or those with chronic health conditions, more frequent exams may be recommended to ensure we can address any concerns promptly.
