When your pet comes in for their annual vet check, there will a be complete physical examination, which includes looking at your pet’s head, ears, trunks, and tail, and all cavities and cleaning. Since some of the animals may not be as cooperative, some may even be aggressive, so the vet may require to do a cleaning. Just like you, your furry friends can get cavities and have the risk of losing teeth. It’s also important to keep a record of your pet’s medical history that includes the procedures and shots your pet gets from the vet and also a log of your pet’s elimination, as well as any changes in behavior, physical changes, and other unusual things. You should also keep a record of any changes in your pet’s behavior, including the need to mark territory, mood swings, as well as changes in their food and routine. You should take your notebook to the vet. These notes may be the only things that will explain some of the medical issues that your pet is suffering from. If you need to find a new vet, then the notebook will be able to provide a complete medical history for your pet.

Find a veterinarian who is personable and willing to walk through each step of every process your pet will need. Ideally, you and your pet should feel at ease. Be sure to select a clinic that has a staff of trained experts who can conduct an surgical and anesthetic procedures, like tooth extractions. Since anesthetic presents general risk, contrary to popular belief, older, younger, and sick pets, your veterinarian will probably recommend exams, a chest X-ray and some blood and urine tests, before administrating your pet anesthesia. He may require an IV, and anitbiotics may be required during and after the procedure.
