I took my boy in yesterday for his check up and had a senior panel done, etc. The results came back today and all his values were 'perfect', per the vet, and the Hills CD seems to be doing a wonderful job - he had struvite crystals last September. She said he could stand to lose a little weight, but nothing too dramatic. I'm starting the twice a year visits, and we'll get his teeth cleaned in February after that check-up, as he's developing a little tartar.
Now, I'm just waiting on my girl's results, as I took her in this morning, and won't get the news til Tuesday when the office re-opens. Poor baby - she was so scared she was panting a bit at the vet's office, but she seemed fine as soon as we got home, and her physical check-up went well - she's a great weight and everything felt right to the vet. Her anal glands had to be expressed, so she just had a tough morning all around. The vet said she took at half-hearted nip at the tech, but everybody said she was a good girl, just scared. Now just hoping the bloodwork comes back ok too.
Thanks for listening.
