Dr Mahaney Shares His Top Five Pet Apps

Cardiff is Caught Surfing the Web Cardiff is a True Pet Cyberchondriac This article originally appeared as Dr. Mahaney's Top 5 Pet Apps on the Flexcin Blog. 1. Tagg the Pet Tracker As a veterinarian, the health and welfare of our furry companions tops my list of ongoing concerns. So, any app that helps a lost pet be readily located is right up my alley. I’m impressed by the ease of use and applicability of Tagg the Pet Tracker app. Hopefully, with the use of Tagg and my overseeing eye, Cardiff will never go missing. 2. Pet Poison Help Having treated countless cases of toxic exposure while working in emergency veterinary practice, I recognize that pet owner education concerning potential dog and cat toxins is vital; this is where the Pet Poison Help app comes in handy. 3. Dog & Cat Dentist Periodontal disease is the number one disease diagnosed in my veterinary patients. Because most of the damage caused by oral bacteria present in our pets’ mouths is preventable, I strive to educate my clients about the importance of regular home dental care as well as veterinary dentistry. This useful app makes my job easier! 4. Perfect Dog Ultimate Breed Guide Choosing to bring a pet into a household is a serious commitment requiring pet owners to provide proper nutrition, bathroom facilities, socialization, activity, and veterinary care. Prospective dog owners must plan for the adoption process by making sure the breed’s characteristics appropriately suit your interests and lifestyle as an owner. Perfect Dog is a great tool to finding the right dog for you and your family. 5. Dog Friendly I love to travel with my dog, so knowing canine-friendly locations for activity, dining, and lodging is an important part of my trip planning process. Dog Friendly permits pet-‘pawsitive’ travel from the convenience of my mobile device. Thank you for reading my article.  Your questions and comments are completely welcome (I'll respond).
