"I recommend the sites listed here," said Andrea S. Mullen, DVM, "because they start with tested scientific and medical information. Chat rooms may be full of well-meaning but untrained individuals who may provide less reliable information. Antidotal information about someone else's experience may or may not fit your individual situtation. Of course, nothing substitutes for a trained and caring veterinarian who actually sees and examines your pet to determine its individual needs."
"Improved client education helps all concerned. No
one knows their pet like the owner. Clients who know more about veterinary
medicine can be helpful in diagnosing their pet's ailments," Dr. Mullen
said.
