What we offer

Flu Tests 🦠

Respiratory viruses spread fast and can leave pets struggling to breathe. What starts as sneezing or watery eyes can escalate into pneumonia, weight loss, and serious health risks without early detection.

Gut Health Tests 💩

Silent gut infections are among the deadliest. Parvovirus, coronavirus, and other pathogens cause severe vomiting, bloody diarrhea, and rapid dehydration — often fatal within days if untreated.

Comprehensive Tests 🔬

Our most complete panels cover viral, bacterial, and parasitic threats. Hidden dangers like Listeria, which can lead to neurological damage or even hair loss, often go unnoticed until it’s too late. Comprehensive screening leaves nothing to chance.

Pregnancy Safety Tests 🤰

Toxoplasma and Salmonella can silently pass from pets to people. In pregnant women, these infections may trigger miscarriage, premature birth, or life-long birth defects in infants. Early detection is critical for family safety.

Diarrhea Tests 🚽

Chronic diarrhea is not just uncomfortable — it signals infections like Cryptosporidium and Salmonella, which can spread quickly through a household. Left untreated, they can cause dangerous dehydration and long-term digestive damage.

Parasite Tests 🪱

Parasites like Toxoplasma gondii and Cryptosporidium often go unnoticed until they cause irreversible harm. They are linked to pregnancy complications, nerve damage, and severe gut illness, threatening both pets and their families.
