Knowing when your Dog needs a Vet
Knowing when to take your dog to the vet and when to let him 'self-regulate' is a pretty tricky business – how do you tell when he needs to see a professional? After all, it’s not as if you can rely on your dog to let you know.
Nobody likes forking out $80 for a needless visit to the vet, but then again no conscientious dog-owner can bear to contemplate their dog’s suffering, either! Until now it has been a dilemma.
Stress-Free Dog Care
The Ultimate Guide to Dog Health by Malcolm Fields offers stress-free dog care as it is complete and detailed, covering all the common health problems (both serious and not) that dogs suffer from. The overall focus is on being prepared and taking preventative action. It teaches you how to accurately self-diagnose (with the assistance of step-by-step flowcharts which tell you whether he’ll be fine by himself, whether he needs to see the vet, and how urgently the vet should be seen); and, while it’s packed with knowledge and advice from veterinarians and trained dog-care specialists, it’s attractive and reader-friendly.
What’s Actually Covered?
The book deals with all the common problems and ailments suffered by dogs. It covers issues like toothache and dental trouble, ear infections, skin rashes and chafing, eye irritations, worming issues, and lameness; chronic problems like vomiting, diarrhea, coughing, asthma, breathing trouble, and liver problems. It also covers more severe issues like arthritis and cancer as well as symptomatic 'alerts' like hair loss, lethargy and behavioral changes.
On top of that, you also learn how to pick up early warning signs by identifying and accurately interpreting your dog’s body language; how to groom your dog quickly and effectively; how to take good care of his teeth and gums; how to administer medicine safely and easily; and how to recognize the early warning signs of health trouble through behavioral and physical changes.
All this information is fully supplemented by full-color diagrams, photographs, and illustrations.
Detailed Symptom Charts
How can you tell how serious the problem is, and when you need to take your dog to the vet?
There are many detailed symptom charts designed especially to help owners make solid decisions about their dog’s health-care. Each chart starts from the specific symptoms of a particular ailment (you just follow the 'branches' of the flowchart, depending on your dog's symptoms) and the chart tells you the recommended path of treatment for each one. Importantly, it also advises whether veterinary care should be sought – and if so, how urgently. So simple to use!
