Observant dog owners aid veterinarians

Imagine the dog owner concerned because the family dog is coughing frequently. Now imagine owner and dog arriving at the veterinary clinic, seeking help in determining the cause of the problem. The veterinarian is going to ask lots of questions about that cough. If the owner had used the new Pet Health Topics site launched by the Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine, he or she would have discovered how many different conditions can cause coughing, not to mention how valuable it is when owners can describe their dog's symptoms in some detail for the vet. This pet site offers information on everything from toenail trimming to seizures in dogs. It's definitely worth a bookmark for frequent repeat visits.
