Ever experienced that awful nightmare scenario of heading to the vet with your companion, scared and confused about what's going on, and unsure how you possibly could have missed what lead up to your pet's illness? Perhaps you had some slight feeling something was a little off for the past few days or even weeks, but it didn't seem serious enough to where you began to worry. In this post, I'll let you know of some basic signs you can keep in mind when it comes to health checking your pet.

Meet my mum Carol's dog Junah. She's a four year old Jack Russell and staffy mix who lives at home with my mum, two kitties Meeko and Beans, and my siblings. Junah is an awesome little companion and deeply deeply loved, but her energy and attachment to Carol can be really overwhelming and cause some tension. I wanted to see what I could do to help!
