Recommended Resources

There is a lot of information out on the Internet – some of it reliable, and some of it not. We know that many pet owners like to do their research and educate themselves on their pets’ conditions, or even just the best ways to care for their pets. Typing your question into Google can get you an overwhelming amount of information, and sometimes a lot of scary information.

We’re here to help. The following is a collection of websites our team trusts, that will provide you with reliable and useful information. We encourage you to start your research with these pages – you should be able to find what you’re looking for, without having to weed through too many unreliable sources!
