Rate of aging in pets

For millions of people an annual general examination has become a commonplace in the health-care campaign.

According to studies, 3 out of 4 internal physicians believe that annual examinations improve the chances of early detection of disease, and for most of the population a general examination once a year is sufficient.

Like people, pets also enjoy regular health tests but with one important difference - their aging process is faster than people, so significant changes in dog or cat health can occur in a very short time.

 

Pets grow up to 7 times faster than humans. Most dogs are considered intermediate age at the age of 4 years, and at the age of 7 they are "senior citizens". So even though one-year tests are a sensible solution for people, when it comes to pets, it's too long.

 

 

Taking a dog or cat to a emergency vet once a year is like having a doctor see his or her dentist only once every seven years. Two-year tests help the veterinarian to locate, diagnose, treat and even prevent problems before they become life-threatening. A new survey among dog and cat owners shows that about 70 percent of them consider animal health as their health. If you feel that way, set a two-year check for your best friend right now.

 

This is one of the mantras of my treatment room - all dogs and cats, especially the older ones, should undergo bi-annual health checks and annual blood and urine tests.

 

Customers are often skeptical when the emergency vete urges them to come for two-year checks. Many people do not visit their family doctor unless they are ill. An emergency vet on the other hand, is used to preventive medicine. We prefer to prevent your pet from being sick in the first place, and when we manage to diagnose problems at an early stage it is usually easier and cheaper to treat and the result is better. Pets get older faster than you and me.

 

As we get older the body is eroded. The functioning of the internal organs decreases and the immune system weakens, the incidence of cancer increases, and even the ability to move easily begins to deteriorate. By visiting the emergency vet for a general physical examination, you can work together with the veterinarian to help ensure that your pet will grow up best, and you play a very important role in this regard - you know your loved ones better than any other One can also prepare a medical diary and better understand changes in appetite, behavior, and body weight.
