Choose a veterinarian who is calm, compassionate and willing to explain all the procedures your pet undergoes. Find one with whom both you and your pet feel comfortable. Choose a clinic with qualified staff and facilities to undertake surgery and perform procedures requiring anesthesia, such as teeth cleaning. Because of the risks inherent to anesthesia, especially for the geriatric pet, very young, or very ill pets, your veterinarian will likely suggest a few exams, including a chest X-ray and lab analysis of blood and urine, before your pet undergoes anesthesia. The staff members of a veterinary hospital are the heart and soul of the facility. They are the ones who make sure your pets are receiving the best care possible.
Your pet's annual check-up will include a total physical exam, with a thorough investigation of your pet's head, body and tail, and all his assorted cavities. Because even the most cooperative pet may not readily go-along with a tooth and gum brushing, an annual cleaning by your veterinarian maybe in order. It's a good idea to keep an accurate medical diary not only of the procedures and vaccinations your pet receives, but also of notes on things like your pet's elimination habits and any physical changes or unusual occurrences. Keep track of small shifts in your pet's behavior, including urinary marking habits and mood swings, along with diet and routine modifications. These seemingly unrelated occurrences may help explain results of your pet's medical tests. Always feel free to ask questions about your pet's health care.
