Pet Quality-of-Life Services in New Port Richey: Helping Your Pet Live Their Best Life
Managing your pet’s quality of life can be challenging, especially for older companions or those with chronic conditions. At Little Road Veterinary Clinic, we’re here to support you every step of the way, ensuring you never face this journey alone. If your senior pet begins to experience pain, mobility issues, or other health concerns—or even if a younger pet is facing a serious medical condition—we can help you identify early signs of discomfort and create a plan to keep them as comfortable as possible.
However, as pets age and their chronic ailments progress, there may come a time when pain and a lack of energy persist despite our best efforts. In these moments, we offer the option of euthanasia. As the Greeks put it, euthanasia, or “good death”, is a compassionate choice to let them go peacefully when they can no longer enjoy life as they once did.

Cold Laser Therapy
On the cusp of breaking edge technology, Little Road Veterinary Clinic is proud to offer Cold Laser Therapy. This cutting-edge, non-invasive, form of pain management utilizes light to interact with tissue and muscles to promote growth and healing. This therapy can also promote blood flow, reduce swelling, alleviate arthritic pains, and promote nerve growth to the affected area. This conservative pain management tool can be used to help manage acute and chronic pain, ensuring a fuller and more active life for your pet.
Pain Management
Alleviating your pet’s pain is one of the best ways you can improve their health. Your Little Road veterinary family considers managing both acute and chronic pain in dogs and cats to be an important goal to help our pet parents navigate. At Little Road Veterinary Clinic, we utilize different pain management techniques such as PRP, Stem Cell and Laser Therapy, along with other supportive care like Solensia and Librela, weight management with diet, and joint supplements.
Librela and Solensia are monthly injectable treatments offered to our canine and feline companions suffering from osteoarthritis.
Librela is for our canine friends and Solensia is for our feline friends. These injectables help to alleviate pain associated with osteoarthritis with effects that last up to 30 days. Both treatments use monoclonal antibodies (laboratory-produced molecules engineered to serve as substitute antibodies that can restore, enhance, modify, or mimic the immune system’s attack on cells that aren’t wanted), a treatment that is administered to target the nerve growth factors (an insulin-like protein, which regulates growth, development, and maintenance of sympathetic and embryonic sensory neurons).
During your pet’s visit, you can expect comprehensive counseling on pain management and weight management, tailored to your pet’s specific needs. Our team will conduct a detailed examination and consultation to assess your pet’s overall health, perform laboratory tests and/or diagnostic studies as needed, identify any areas of concern, and create a personalized care plan. We are committed to ensuring your pet’s well-being and helping them maintain a pain-free life.
