Bringing your dog in for an annual wellness exam is an important event that <\/span>our doctors<\/span><\/a> at <\/span>Sunrise Boulevard Animal Hospital<\/span><\/a> recommend for every patient. As a pet owner it may not be obvious, though, as to why <\/span>wellness exams<\/span><\/a> are so important. Understanding what we do during one of these visits and why it matters can make a big difference for your dog. Read on to learn what happens at a dog wellness appointment from the dog\u2019s point of view:<\/span><\/p>\n

Henlo, Nice to See You, Fren!<\/span><\/h2>\n

Every so often my hooman gets me in the car to do me a visit somewhere. Sometimes it is the park or Grandma\u2019s house, but sometimes we go to the vet\u2019s office.<\/span><\/p>\n

For some doggos, goin to the vet is heckin scary, but I like to go smell all the smells and see some frens. There are nice hoomans there and all sorts of doggos. Small bois, big ol\u2019 floofers, and everything in between. Once I even saw me a catto!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If doin a visit to the vet is doin you a scare, tell your hooman to talk to the dogtor about something to help. Sometimes when I get a peanut butter with a crunchy inside before the sky explosions happen it makes me feel much better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When we get to the vet office, the nice hoomans there give me pats and say \u201cgood boi.\u201d They do a lot of talk with my hooman and ask lots of questions. What noms do I eat? How do my potties looks? So many questions. They also check my weight and make sure I am not too thicc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the easy part. My dog nurse learns so much about me and I get some snaccos sometimes, too!<\/span><\/p>\n

Doin Me a Check Up<\/span><\/h2>\n

After that, the dogtor comes in and they do me a good check up. The nurse might gib me a good huggo and they look at all my parts:<\/span><\/p>\n
