*************************************************

The following are examples of the pet health concerns Dr. Mahaney addresses during his consultations (see bottom of page to purchase a consultation):

  • My dog is having difficulty getting up, walking, and going up/down stairs. Could my dog have arthritis or another condition that causes pain?
  • My pet has less energy, sleeps more, and exhibits little interest in playing or interacting. What illnesses could cause these conditions?
  • My dog gets anti-inflammatory medication to control pain associated with arthritis. Are there supplements or other medications that could benefit my pet’s condition?
  • My dog has chronic skin allergies and always needs to be medicated with steroids, antihistamines, or antibiotics. What else can I do to manage my dog’s skin condition?
  • My pet has less interest in eating its commercial dry food. What could be the cause of this and what can I do improve my pet’s appetite?
  • My pet has previously gotten sick post-vaccination and I am concerned about giving further vaccinations. Is another approach available to determine if a vaccination is needed?
  • How do I know if my pet is overweight and what can I do to safely promote weight loss?
