Vet Nurse Rachel shows you how to do a health check on your dog at home. Typically, dogs require a vet check up once a year but there are a few simple things you can do at home in-between visits. From head-to-tail, we will look at your dogs teeth, gums, ears, skin, coat and bottom (someone has to do it). We recommend performing these checks on your dog as often as you can. This will help to ensure that anything out of the ordinary is spotted and dealt with quickly.
