Intro: Taking Your Dog to the Veterinarian

Barring emergencies, most dogs will require a handful of veterinary visits during their first year of life and annual visits thereafter. Listed on the following pages are approximate guidelines of when you should expect to have the dog serviced and what you can expect a veterinarian to do.

Quirk BooksThe Dog Owner’s Manual is a basic guide to dog care.
The book was written by a celebrated veterinarian and an acclaimed author. It provides dog owners with well-researched and helpful information presented in a lighthearted manner. The creators chose to write the book in a style similar to what you'd find in "operating instructions" for a car or computer, so it would be in a familiar language for someone learning how to do something for the first time. Of course they—and we—respect the fact that our beloved pets are not products or machines, and we hope you will read this guide and discover that it is as valuable as it is fun to read.
