Pets and the Vet

I finally broke down and took my two dogs and cat to the vet this past Friday.  I was really worried since it had been so long since I had taken them to the vet.  I decided to find a new vet since their old vet was not as friendly as I would like a vet to be.  I did tons of research and found a vet that had a perfect rating on google.  I loved this place.  They referred to my pets as my kids, which you know right off is perfect.  Than they were probably the best deal in town and they were very up front about pricing.  I liked the small town vet feel of the office and look forward to working with them in the future. 

Now for the bad news.  First off Memphis was fantastic, he was considered in perfect shape and very healthy.  They even said his teeth were great.

 

 

On to Vegas, I have been a bit worried about her wheezing after playing outside.  She  stumped the vet because she moves her abdomen when breathing heavy, she also had bad teeth but her mommy is so broke now I will be taking care of that for the time being.  She will be taking allergy meds for awhile to help her breathing.

 

Last was poor Lacy.  She has a heart murmur and had a complete blood test, they are not 100% sure what is causing it.  It is possible she has heart disease but they said she could go the rest of her life and never have any problems with it, but I was told what to watch for in case a problem occurs.   Her teeth were also bad but since they did not recommend a cleaning I am guessing they think she is not healthy enough for the cleaning.  I have been  watching her very closely but she is acting so normal it is throwing me a bit.

In the end I am glad I went ahead and took care of this but it defiantly added some worries to my life.
