I'm getting ready to take my two oldest in for complete phsycials but this year I want the vet to do more. I really want my two to be examed, blood to be taken and anything else that needs to be done. I'm thinking not only could this prove to prevent problems early but it would also give us baseline numbers which could be used for comparision if there were problems in the future. Can anyone give me tips on tests that I should make sure they run? Also my dogs teeth and gums look great (likely better than my own) but is there any preventative care I should ask for with their teeth/gums?
The two dogs I'm talking about are Shiloh, age five and Shoshona age four.
Any suggestions you can give me will be appreciated. I just don't feel like a quick check of the heart, listen to the lungs and looking at the ears is doing enough for their annual exams anymore.
