When was the last vet check-up? 🩺🐾

When was your pup’s last vet check-up? 👀

For Buckster, we keep things simple but consistent 🐾

• Yearly vaccinations — always on schedule ✅

• Monthly NexGard Spectra — honestly, the best tablets we’ve ever tried. One and done for fleas, ticks and worms — total peace of mind 💊

• Regular home care — we trim nails, clean ears, and keep his paws healthy ourselves.

So far, we’ve only had two emergency vet visits (and both turned out fine, thankfully🥹):

1️⃣ When Buckster was little, a courier delivered a wardrobe in disassembled pieces, placed it carelessly and the boards fell right onto Buckster’s paw😱 We rushed to the vet, did an X-ray… and guess what? Nothing was broken! Just a little bruise and a lot of drama 🫠

2️⃣ As a puppy, he had a small growth on his eye — it had been there since he was a few weeks old. The vet prescribed treatment, and it completely disappeared 💛

Since then, zero issues. Buckster’s as healthy as ever — and even when playing with tiny toys, he’s super gentle, holding them only with his front teeth like a little gentleman 😁

___________

When was your dog’s last vet visit? Do you do monthly prevention too? 👇
