Vet visits important during Summer
It's that time of year we all look forward to lazy, hazy summer days, no school, longer family vacations and a usually slower pace.?? But when it comes to our pets, there's one thing we shouldn't take a break from.
No one likes going to the doctor, but during the summer months, it's important to make sure the family dog or cat doesn't miss their trips to the vet.
Dr. Nicole McAlpine says, "Keeping those regular exams, even for things like routine blood work, are important because they also help pet owners, their animals and the veterinarian build a strong relationship."
Regular visits also help your vet catch problems in the early stages.? Kittens and puppies should see the vet at least two or three times a year.? For adult dogs and cats, once a year is probably okay.? For older animals, it's best to check with your vet.
A lot of people will travel with their pets during the summer.? Dr. McAlpine says, "It's best to get a check-up before going on vacation."
