In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.webmd.com%2Fpet-tales%2F2012%2F11%2Fwhats-on-your-veterinarians-mind.html\">last week\u2019s post<\/a>, I discussed the issues from the veterinarian\u2019s point of view. In this blog I will write from the pet owner\u2019s point of view.<\/div>\n<p>Pet owners said they were primarily concerned with vaccinations, fleas and ticks, heartworms, intestinal parasites, and spending money on medications. This list appears to overlap with the veterinary list on the topic of intestinal parasites, and both owners and vets are squarely focused on preventive healthcare; care to keep their favorite furry, feathery, or scaly companion healthy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vaccinations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Vaccinations float to the top of most pet owners\u2019 lists because they save pets\u2019 lives. Before vaccinations were available for common diseases like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.webmd.com%2Fpet-tales%2F2011%2F07%2Fdoggy-dash-and-distemper.html\">canine distemper<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.webmd.com%2Fpet-tales%2F2010%2F11%2Ffvrcp-a-necessary-vaccine-for-cats.html\">feline panleukopenia<\/a>, these diseases spread through neighborhoods like wildfire, often resulting in the deaths of many pets. Decreases in the recommended frequency of some vaccines, coupled with the association between injections and tumors, has raised many questions in pet owners\u2019 minds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Intestinal parasites<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both pet owners and veterinarians agreed intestinal parasite control was an important issue for pets. How could it not be? Intestinal parasites are high in yuck factor, high in pet discomfort, and on the list of diseases people and pets can share.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fleas and ticks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These critters are very similar to intestinal parasites with regard to yuck factor and pet discomfort. A pet with a flea infestation may mean you also have a house or apartment with a flea infestation since fleas spend more time off your pet than on. Pet owners want to avoid an expensive exterminator bill by preventing fleas on their pet. Pet owners also want to prevent fleas and ticks to protect their pet against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.webmd.com%2Fpet-tales%2F2012%2F08%2Ftick-time.html\">diseases<\/a> like Lyme disease and blood parasites.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heartworms<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because heartworms are a serious health concern in both dogs and cats, they are an important medical issue for most pet owners. Nearly every state in the United States reports cases of heartworm in resident dogs and cats. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.capcvet.org%2Fcapc-recommendations%2Fcanine-heartworm\">This map<\/a> shows heartworm cases by state.<\/p>\n<p>Year-round heartworm preventative is a \u201ctwo-fer\u201d since most prevent both heartworms and some intestinal parasites.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pet medications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pet owners want the best for their pet. In my mind, the best are veterinary-specific products.\u00a0 I prefer to prescribe medications developed specifically for veterinary patients rather than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/click?url=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.webmd.com%2Fpet-tales%2F2012%2F08%2Fpet-medications-6-tips-to-keep-pets-safe.html\">human or compounded<\/a> medications. Veterinary-specific medications assure you, the pet owner, the product has been tested in dogs or cats and will be absorbed, metabolized, and effective in your pet. But, because most pets do not have insurance and medications are paid for \u201cout of pocket,\u201d many times pet owners can be surprised at the cost. As a pet owner myself, I believe that these veterinary-specific medications are worth paying for.<\/p>\n<p>After looking carefully at the two lists of pet healthcare issues, one from pet owners and the other from veterinarians, are they really so different?\u00a0 Both groups\u2019 lists really have only one item and it\u2019s the same one: healthy, happy pets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Owners and veterinarians are similarly focused on preventive care, including vaccinations and parasite control, writes veterinarian Ann Hohenhaus, who discusses the results of a survey.
