I think we are going to start looking for a new vet soon. Our vet is good and I would recommend him in most cases. Our trainer suggested we look for a vet that has a bit more experience with giant breeds. He said most vets in our area do not have tables large enough to preform surgery on a mastiff. He said when a mastiff is in surgery, often the vet tech will hold the dogs head which can result in neck injury to the dog.
I am a hermit crab with a lot of anxiety, especially when it comes to making phone calls. I know I’m going to have to just get over it and make some calls. It helps a lot when I have a “plan of action”, if I have an idea of what to ask before hand.
Do any of you have advice on how to find a vet? One with experience with giant breed and the proper equipment to deal with mastiffs. What kind of questions should I be asking? How did you find your current vet?Is there even such a thing as a vet that specializes in larger dogs or am I being unrealistic? Any advice?
