The Denver Dog Magazine – Monthly Pet Health Checklist

It can be very difficult to remember all of the various procedures your dog needs to stay healthy. Here at The Denver Dog, we recommend pet owners create a “Monthly Pet Health Checklist” to help you remember everything that your dog needs. You can write this on a dry erase board and place it on your refrigerator. Check off the items as you complete them.

Here is an example checklist:

Administer Heartworm and Flea/Tick prevention

Examine mouth for broken, discolored teeth

Check Body Condition Score

Clean ears as needed

Trim nails

Bathe and Brush
