Live Vet Chat Options Help Worried Tripawd Pet Parents

When your new Tripawd keeps you up at night with worry, live vet chat options can put your mind at ease. Vet telemedicine is a new, exciting world for vets and pet parents.

In the Tripawds community, we provide emotional support to one another. But we are not vets, and we don’t dare try to play one on TV or the internet. That’s why these live vet options are great news for pet parents of new and long-time amputee dogs and cats.

Thankfully, veterinary telemedicine is widely practiced across North America. It started when COVID 19 pandemic forced the closing of clinic doors to the public. It’s a movement carried over from human medicine. Telemedicine for people has been around for quite a while. We can go online and consult with a medical doctor about non-emergency health concerns. Now, we can do it for our pets, too!

Finally, New Live Vet Chat Options Can Put Our Fears to Rest

Veterinary Telemedicine on your PC, Mac, Tablet or Phone

All good pet parents are concerned about the everyday care of their dogs and cats. We have questions about nutrition, exercise, skin conditions, flea control, and other common concerns to keep our pets healthy and strong. When coping with amputation recovery and care, those questions become even more important. During recovery we recommend keeping your vet on speed dial, and having the number of an emergency clinic on hand. 

But for those non-emergency questions, telemedicine for pets is now a tap away. Consider these popular live vet chat options.
