At Tenafly Veterinary Center in Tenafly, NJ, we believe the best veterinary care happens before your dog gets sick. Our comprehensive dog preventive care program is designed to protect your dog's health at every stage of life — from puppy through senior.

Why Preventive Care is Essential for Dogs

Preventive care is the foundation of a long, healthy life for your canine companion. Regular wellness exams and timely vaccinations help catch hidden issues before they become serious. Dog preventive care in Tenafly also supports strong dental health, keeps parasites like fleas and ticks away, and ensures your pet receives proper nutrition guidance — fewer surprises, less discomfort, and more years of joyful companionship.

Wellness Exams

Comprehensive nose-to-tail physical examinations to assess your dog's overall health, catch early warning signs, and update your pet's health record.

Vaccinations

Core and lifestyle-based vaccines tailored to your dog's age, breed, and risk factors — including rabies, DHPP, bordetella, leptospirosis, and Lyme disease.
