Pet Poisons Guide
“My dog or cat has eaten…”
Has your pet eaten something they shouldn’t? Is it actually poisonous or not? Is your pet at risk? Do you need to call your vet? Is it urgent, or will it wait until the morning? Is this something you can manage at home – and if so, what should you be watching out for?
VetHelp Direct’s interactive poisons guide will help you answer those questions… plus, it’s completely free for non-commercial use!

Evaluation and Treatment Plans
During the consultation, Dr. will evaluate your pet. Should a treatment plan be necessary, the Dr. will discuss it with you. This could include blood tests, medicines or prescription diet food.
Routine Checkups
Your pet should visit the vet at least once a year for a routine checkup and their vaccinations. A routine checkup is very important, as diseases may be diagnosed earlier, and not when they become really sick. Senior pets should visit the vet twice a year.
