Story >Blood test for your pet In
addition to your pet's annual physical exam and vaccinations, KPVH
recommends Blood tests (CBC, Chemistry, Electrolytes, T4) and an Electrocardiogram
(ECG) on all pets over 4 years of age. These tests give us a baseline
of what is normal for your pet. These tests should be repeated once
a year.

painful than other procedures and there is a faster recovery time.
