To find the right veterinarian for your dog, start by making a checklist of the things that are important to you.
Is the clinic accredited or a member of a top professional association?
How close is the vet clinic to your home? How far would you have to travel if your dog gets sick?
Does the clinic offer home visits or 24-hour emergency service?
When you visit does the staff seem welcoming, calm, and confident?
If your dog is afraid of the vet, you can help take the stress out of the visit by scheduling an appointment where you go into an exam room for nothing more than a basic check-up. No shots! Nothing invasive. Make it a positive experience.
