Being able to make sure that your dog is healthy is something that just feels good. I personally would love to be able to have some time to check my dog's eyes out as well. That would be a great way to make sure that there are no signs of cataracts or other eye diseases. Thank you for sharing. http://www.deepcreekvet.com
ReplyDeleteThe growth of specialist in the Veterinary community is fantastic! Being able to provide the same standard of care we expect for ourselves is the goal of our practice. Every May, the ACVO offers this incredible service to animals that give so much throughout the year. Thank you for being a part of our conversation.
