Preventive Care and Vaccination Schedules
Core Vaccines for Dogs and Cats
At Phone Tumwater Deschutes Animal Clinic, we tailor vaccine schedules to lifestyle, age, and local disease risks. Core protection includes rabies, distemper, and feline viral measures, with reminders sent via text or email.
Parasite Prevention Plans
Flea, tick, and heartworm prevention are discussed at every visit. We recommend year-round options based on regional risk and your pet’s exposure, with easy online refills and home delivery.
Diagnostic Services and In-House Lab
Quick, accurate diagnostics help us address concerns the same day. Our in-house lab supports hematology, biochemistry, and fecal testing, reducing wait times and allowing faster treatment decisions.
Digital radiology and ultrasound are available for more advanced imaging. We explain results clearly so you understand the findings and next steps for your companion.
Surgery, Dental, and Anesthesia Safety
Common Surgical Procedures
From spay and neuter to mass removals, our team follows strict protocols to minimize risk. Pre-surgical bloodwork ensures your pet is a good candidate for anesthesia and the procedure.
Dental Cleaning and Oral Health
Professional scaling under safe anesthesia removes hidden tartar and addresses gum disease. We provide at-home dental care tips and recommend regular cleanings to support long-term health.

When urgent issues arise outside clinic hours, we provide a reliable hotline to stabilize your pet and connect you with an emergency facility. Clear instructions help you act quickly while minimizing stress.
