Today’s tip is about specialty veterinary care. Most dogs are healthy until they’re much older but accidents and illnesses do occur. In addition to traditional veterinarians there are now veterinarians that concentrate on a variety of specialties. Your first stop is always with your vet and then if further diagnoses or treatment are required, they can point you in the right direction.
Here’s the tip for today:
There are veterinarians offering specialty care in dermatology, cancer treatment, orthopedic care, including physical rehabilitation, and more. Plus, in addition to traditional veterinary medicine there are also holistic and natural treatments that you can try either instead of, or in addition to traditional treatment. Here’s a link to the American Holistic Veterinarian Medical Association along with the link to Earth Heart and Natural Paws two companies that make natural products that I use on my pets that you can try on yours as well. And for general health, or if your dog has a cancer diagnosis, check out K9 Medicinals . For more information pick up a copy of What to Expect When Adopting a Dog.
