Veterinary Resources
As fellow animal lovers, we understand that when you learn your pet has a medical condition, your first instinct is to research and gather as much information as possible. It’s important to remember that not all information found online is accurate or trustworthy.
Request an AppointmentTo help you navigate through the noise, we’ve compiled a list of reliable and trusted sources where you can find accurate, veterinarian-approved information:
- American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA)
- American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA)
- Veterinary Partner by VIN
When to Talk to Us Instead of Searching Online
General information can be a helpful starting point, but nothing replaces a hands-on exam from your veterinarian. If your pet is showing symptoms of illness, has a skin or allergy concern, or needs guidance on nutrition, our team can give you answers specific to your pet rather than general information that may not apply to their situation.
If you have any additional questions about your pet’s health or condition, please don’t hesitate to call us at (817) 514-8387. We’re here to help.
Are the resources listed here veterinarian-approved?
Yes, we’ve selected organizations like AVMA, ASPCA, and Veterinary Partner because they provide accurate, professionally reviewed information.
Should I rely on general online research instead of a vet visit?
No, general resources are helpful for background information, but your pet’s symptoms should always be evaluated by a veterinarian for an accurate diagnosis.
What if I find conflicting information online?
Call our office and we can help clarify what applies to your pet’s specific situation, since online information is often general and not pet-specific.
Can these resources help me prepare questions for my appointment?
Yes, reviewing trusted resources beforehand can help you come to your appointment with informed questions for our veterinary team.
Do you recommend any resources for pet behavior questions?
The ASPCA offers helpful behavior resources, though our team is also happy to discuss behavior concerns during your pet’s visit.
Are these resources free to use?
Yes, AVMA, ASPCA, and Veterinary Partner all offer free, publicly accessible pet health information.
Who can I contact if I still have questions after researching?
Call our office at (817) 514-8387 and our veterinary team will be happy to help answer any remaining questions.
