Ветеринарна аптечка: що має бути під рукою?

Every dog owner knows that unexpected situations often occur when you least expect them. This list of medications and dressings is your basic first aid kit to help stabilize your pet before a visit to the vet.

Please remember that this list is a general guideline. Your dog's needs may vary significantly depending on breed, age, lifestyle, and the presence of chronic diseases. We strongly recommend that you discuss this list with your veterinarian to supplement it with medications that are specifically needed for your pet.
We strongly advise against self-medication. Any drug, dosage, or method of administration should be discussed with a specialist in advance. Using medications “at your own discretion” can lead to unpredictable allergic reactions or worsening of your dog’s condition. Your veterinarian is the one who knows your dog’s medical history, so always have their number handy.

A first aid kit is not just a box of medicines, it is your peace of mind. Check the expiration dates of all medications at least once every three months. Also, if you are planning a trip, do not forget to add to the kit individual medications that your dog takes on a regular basis, and always check the availability of a veterinary pharmacy or clinic along your route.
You may never need this kit, but being prepared is the best way to show concern for those who can't say what's hurting them.

It's better to download the first aid kit to your phone and keep it within easy reach.
