2. Sometimes you don’t have to talk to veterinarian.

Just like nurses, vet technicians are trained to take care of little things. When a pet owner calls, the vet technicians are able to figure out if he/she needs to talk personally to the veterinarian, or not. Usually vet technicians have enough educations to figure out the problem your pet is experiencing, and should be able to advise you what to do. If there is a serious problem veterinarians want you to know that they will always take care of your pet. Safety comes first.

3. Protect your pets to have a safe family

Veterinarians want you to know that having a protected, and clean pet is safer for the family. Do not forget to maximize your pets hygiene. Remember to always buy products that prevent different diseases. Preventive health strategies benefit both sides you and your pet as well. Don’t remember that when a tick hitches a ride on your pet, the same bug could easily attack and bite you, as soon as you approach your pet.

4. Brush their teeth

You may not know, but brushing your pets teeth is basic. Veterinarians want you to know that brushing your pets teeth is not a cosmetic problem. It is much deeper than that. Did you know that the bacteria that your dog has in its mouth could cause heart, kidney, or liver diseases? It is extremely important that you consider to try different methods to brush your pets teeth. You could also ask your veterinary for at-home-methods, or different dental chews that could be used between professional cleanings. Think of your pet just like you would think for your own child. They need us.

5. Do not hesitate to ask questions

It is OK for pet owners to have different kind of questions all the time. Having a pet is not easy, and life sometimes gets complicated. Veterinarians want you to know that: It is OK to call a veterinarian and ask all the questions you could not answer. Your pets health is extremely important, and that’s why veterinarians exist: to take care of them. If you seem to have difficulties in adopting your pet with a new lifestyle, or if your pet needs to start a diet; you should always consider to talk to a professional, unless you are capable of doing it on your own.
