At Home Health Check-up Tips
Nurse BowWow suggests that you:
1. Flip the Lip - Check the breath. Look for signs
of tartar build up and periodontal disease.
Gums should be bubble gum pink.
2. Flip the Flap(ear) - Check for inflammation
and funky smell.
3. Rub the Ribs(no fat) - Rub from neck to tail,
along the spine. Watch for signs of tenderness
or wincing.
4. Fluff the Fur- Check for lumps & bumps. Pick up
fur: if it doesn't snap back it could be a
sign of dehydration.
5. Listen for the Nails - Clicking on the floor
means it's time to clip those nails.
