Bringing your dog to a new vet can feel stressful — for both of you. At South Pasadena Animal Hospital, we make sure every first visit starts with a warm, calm welcome. Our front desk team will greet you and your dog by name, and we'll give your pup a moment to settle in before the exam begins.
Your veterinarian will perform a thorough nose-to-tail physical examination, checking your dog's weight, heart, lungs, teeth, skin, coat, eyes, and ears. We'll review any medical records you've brought, discuss your dog's diet, exercise routine, and behavior, and build a personalized care plan that fits your dog's needs and your budget. Whether you're bringing in a new puppy for their first round of vaccinations or a senior dog for a wellness checkup, every dog receives patient, unhurried attention.
Before you leave, we'll walk you through all of our recommendations, answer every question, and make sure you feel confident about the next steps for your dog's health.
Our wellness exam fees are published on our pricing page so you can plan ahead. We believe in transparent pricing and will always discuss costs before recommending any treatment or additional diagnostics.

Dogs in Southern California are especially prone to skin allergies triggered by environmental factors like grasses, pollens, and dust mites.

Senior dogs benefit from more frequent veterinary attention, and we recommend twice-yearly wellness exams for dogs age seven and older. These visits include comprehensive bloodwork to screen for kidney disease, liver issues, thyroid imbalances, and other age-related conditions. Early detection gives us the best chance to manage these conditions effectively and keep your senior dog happy and active for as long as possible.
