Pain Management
Our approach to pain management involves anticipating potentially painful procedures and taking steps to manage pain from the outset as well as continuing to manage pain throughout your pet’s treatment and recovery process.
Skin Condition and Allergy Treatment

Infection Treatment

Bacterial and Viral Infection Treatment
Look around at the environment where your potential new puppy lives. Some breeders encourage new pet owners to meet the puppies at a third-party location. However, it is important for you to view the breeding facilities. If the kennel you are visiting is dirty, smells bad, or appears disorganized, do not purchase the pet! A dirty environment equals a dirty pet, which can lead to parasite problems, viral infections, and a sick puppy.

Chronic Condition Treatment

Arthritis Treatment
1. Early intervention- many painful animal problems can be avoided with early surgical intervention. For example, it has been estimated that up to 50% of small dogs have kneecaps that pop out of place or “dislocate.” When the dog is young, it does not appear to be a problem for the puppy, but as the dog gets older, painful osteoarthritis develops. Osteoarthritis is a chronic, progressive disease that no one can cure. Medication will be needed for the rest of the dog’s life. Surgery to correct the problem when the dog is young and has no symptoms may avoid many years of painful arthritis.
Hip Dysplasia Treatment
Hip Dysplasia is probably the most commonly known hereditary disease known to affect dogs. However, there are many other known diseases that are genetic and, as a result, are common in specific breeds.
Diabetes Treatment
2. Prevention-a number of different medical conditions can be controlled if preventative measures are considered in a patient’s lifelong care plan. For example, diabetes mellitus can result in a painful neurological condition in cats called dropped hocks. The hock joint breaks down because of tendon and muscle weakness. Many cases of diabetes in cats can be avoided if the correct food is fed to the cat. Proper nutrition can be used to avoid excess weight, which is one of the leading causes of diabetes in cats and dogs. Please make sure to ask our doctors about preventative measures for your puppy or kitten.
Heart Disease Treatment
Foods are available that help to control: kidney disease, heart disease, allergies, and intestinal problems. There are also diets available that help to control one of the major companion animal health problems, obesity.
Kidney Disease Treatment
This is an advanced case of dental disease. However, we frequently see mouths in this condition. This infection in the gums can result in the pet swallowing and being bombarded with huge amounts of bad bacteria. This can lead to heart and kidney disease. Once things advance to this, it can be hard to save all the teeth. But with proper dental hygiene, the mouth can be greatly improved, and the risk of systemic disease virtually eliminated.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
These easily observed things are often only the tip of the iceberg. The problems that you do see are only a fraction of those problems afflicting your pet. Cats and dogs rarely show signs of pain associated with broken teeth, chipped teeth, exposed root canals, cavities, and periodontal disease (inflammation of the gums). We know from our own dental problems that these lesions cause discomfort. Your pet will get used to this disease, a day at a time, and does not demonstrate pain until the condition is advanced. We also know that if these conditions go uncorrected, they may lead to serious illness, including ulcerative stomatitis (open sores in the mouth) and heart disease. A proper teeth cleaning and assessment is the best way to thoroughly screen your pet’s mouth for problems. The initial assessment will take place when your pet is examined by one of our veterinarians.

Dental Surgery
Dr. Battelle was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. She earned her Bachelor’s in Biology with a minor in Chemistry from Missouri State University in 2016 before attaining her D.V.M from The Ohio State University in 2023. Her interests include dentistry, surgery, behavior and shelter medicine. She has over 6 years of experience in dentistry and has undergone extensive continuing education training in feline and canine oral surgery; she also hopes to be able to offer root canals and other forms of endodontic care in the future.

Laboratory Services
Kirkwood Animal Hospital provides all veterinary services for companion animals. Services include laboratory testing, digital radiology, digital dental radiology, dentistry, ultrasound, anesthesia & surgery, laser surgery, cryosurgery, laser therapy, prescription diets, and more.
X-Ray
Dental Radiology
During this assessment, the vet will grade your pet’s mouth. Grade one for mild dental disease, grade two for moderate disease, and grade three for extensive disease. The next step in assessment is anesthesia, charting of the teeth, cleaning of the teeth, and dental x-rays of the teeth. Kirkwood Animal Hospital has a dental x-ray machine and a digital x-ray processing unit. This equipment is state of the art. Digital processing allows our staff to get impeccably detailed x-rays of your pet’s teeth in a very efficient manner. In most cases, the x-rays are available, for review, on a computer screen within seconds. When we detect a problem, we will call you and discuss the appropriate treatment
