Vet never once checked my 13 year old dog (back in 2011) for cancer. She was very sick, seizing and losing her appetite. It was painful to watch. The prednisone put the nail in the coffin. Please. DO NOT PUT YOUR ANIMALS ON PREDNISONE! I have lost 2 dogs because it speeds up organ failure!
Always able to get an appointment right away. Kind to my pet. When my cat was terminal they spelled it out calmly and didn't encourage any heroics.
