online vet consultation

Consider the many ways pets contribute to our enjoyment of life:

Pets provide companionship

There are few things more satisfying than the attention and affection of a good friend. Wagging tails, contented purrs and adoring looks are all ways companion animals communicate with humans and demonstrate their devotion. Many people talk to their pets and consider them to be part of the family. A pet always wants to be with you and is always ready to listen with a sympathetic ear.
Pets give us something to care for

When you add up the small daily acts of caring for a pet— feeding, grooming, exercising— the sum total is a pet owner with a feeling of being needed. Having that sense of purpose and responsibility can help fight loneliness, boredom and depression, especially in the elderly or socially isolated.
Pets help people to be more sociable

People out walking their dogs have a greater tendency to socialize with passersby—their pet gives them a sense of security around strangers and provides a ready-made topic for conversation. Even among family and friends, pets provide a focus of conversation and activity.
Pets are a stimulus to exercise

Pets promote vitality through active exercise—like brisk walking and outdoor games—or quiet therapy for disabled hands, such as brushing a long coat. Pets comfort with touch. The gentle stroking of a pet can reduce stress and lower blood pressure and, when combined with quiet talk, create a feeling of relaxation, intimacy and closeness.

Services

No one is denying the positive impact of a pet presence in one’s life. Researchers say, for example, that people who have a pet live longer and happier lives, and programs that bring animals to nursing homes have been shown to have a positive effect on the residents of those facilities. Dogs and other animals have also been used effectively as part of the treatment for people with autism.

Pets today are considered family members, best friends, confidants, and so much more. Taking care of them requires dedication, love, and nurturing. Our service was designed to allow pet owners to pose specific questions regarding their pets and receive a detailed, and case oriented consultation from the online veterinarian.

Our veterinarians are experienced in traditional and alternative pet medicine and can help examine and treat wide range of veterinary conditions.

This service is not intended to replace a traditional appointment with a veterinarian and a complete physical exam, it is not an emergency consultation facility and does not provide advice or consultation regarding immediate emergency attention. If your pet has been in an accident, or is in immediate medical need, you need to contact your regular veterinarian or local animal hospital immediately. This service is only designed to be informative and supplemental.
