Caplan: Vet Visit Tips During Shelter-in-Place

May 05, 2020

PODCAST (22:14) -- Taking your pets to visit their veterinarian during shelter-in-place can be a troublesome and perplexing event -- even for an experienced vet tech!
Listen to how regular guest, Wide Open Pets blogger, and Certified Veterinary Technician Christy Caplan explained the experience on our 5/3/2020 program.
Christy had to take her dogs in for a well-pet visit as well as necessary dental work. She talks about everything from making the appointment, to preparing for the visit, planning for curbside pickup and delivery, and what notes to bring for the vet team. Perhaps medicating the animals to prepare them for the visit? They will be separated from their owners in a stressful environment. Drugs can help.
Lots of good stuff here that you will want to know if a vet visit becomes necessary during the COVID pandemic.
