Questions every owner should ask their vet

9/14/2017

No matter how hard we try, we veterinarians can't read your pet's mind to find out if something ails them. So we rely on you to tell us what you see at home and away from the excitement (or stress) of the office. You know your pet best - don't be shy during the annual exam!

Concerns - because your pet can't talk:
  • any new lumps or bumps?
  • odor (like from mouth or ears)?
  • itchiness or scratching?
  • coughing or change to breathing?
  • change to thirst or appetite?
  • change to stool or urine?
  • change to behavior? This is a biggie, especially for older pets.
Once we identify the concerns, we can work on diagnosing and then helping your pet to be as healthy and comfortable as can be. Having a list ahead of time can save time and expense so that everything can be addressed at once.

We also need to learn about you and your pets' lifestyle so that we make sure they're protected appropriately.

Wellness - to keep your pet healthy for the next year:
  • ask about your pets' lifestyle and travel so we can make sure to give only the necessary vaccines
  • ask about preventing the parasites that are in your neighborhood
  • know what pet food and treats you're giving, so diet can be adjusted if needed
  • know the medications your pet receives so they can be changed if needed
  • ask about supplements for optimal health

​Lastly, if the primary caregiver is not the one coming to the appointment, a written list of questions, diet, and medications is very helpful and avoids extra office visits for missed concerns. Be your furry friends' advocate and help us give your pet the care he or she deserves!
