Diseases in pets often progress silently. Identifying early warning signs can make the difference between simple treatment and a serious situation. At Benivet BenissaWe insist on early detection as the basis for ensuring the health and longevity of your partner.
Subtle changes you should not ignore
Initial symptoms may seem mild or of little concern, but they indicate that something is wrong:
- Sudden loss or increase in appetite
- Behavioural changes (apathy, aggressiveness, fear)
- Excessive sleepiness or lack of energy
- Increased water consumption or frequency of urination
- Occasional but repeated vomiting or diarrhoea
- Persistent cough, sneezing or runny nose
- Halitosis (bad breath), drooling or difficulty in eating
These signs may be associated with kidney, liver, digestive, heart diseases or chronic infectionsamong others.
➡️ In these cases, we recommend you to schedule a veterinary check-up to detect any alterations in time.
Early diagnosis: how we deal with it in Benissa
In our clinic we apply a multidisciplinary approach. We start with a complete examination and, if necessary, we complement it with:
- Blood tests y urinalysis to detect infections, liver, kidney or endocrine problems.
- Ultrasound and X-rays to assess internal organs or detect tumours.
- Coproparasitological tests if intestinal parasites are suspected.
- Specific assessments from our areas of Internal Medicine o Veterinary Cardiology if more advanced studies are required.
The importance of preventive screening
It is not necessary to wait until your pet is unwell to visit the vet. Regular check-ups allow:
- Detecting diseases at an early stage
- Preventing complications through vaccination or deworming
- Adjust your diet according to age, weight or clinical condition.
- Establishing a useful long-term medical history
➡️ You can combine this review with a plan of vaccination y veterinary deworming adapted to your lifestyle and environment.
