Dog Health

Dog's unlike people, are unable to readily tell you when something is wrong. Dog's generally have a higher threshold for pain than humans, and in some cases without an alert owner to changes in their behaviour, illness or injury may be present for a long time before being recognized, making treatment both harder and more expensive.

Be alert for changes in behaviour, appearance, eating habits and weight of your dog, on a daily basis.

The following pages are a general guide for the health care of your dog.
