Diagnosis
No one knows your dog better than you do
Diabetes can cause visible changes in your dog’s health and behavior. The signs of diabetes are not specific and can also be seen in other diseases. It is important that your dog is examined by your veterinarian at least once a year. If your dog is at risk of diabetes or other conditions, your veterinarian may advise more frequent visits. Make an appointment with your veterinarian to discuss any concerns you have about your dog. Your veterinarian may need to examine your dog and may recommend some tests to identify underlying issues.
