Reply to comment by Allopathological in Does anyone have any recommendations on a good veterinarian in RI? Preferably one that’s not afraid of pibbles and bullys by Low-Dragonfly-5352

You do realize im talking about dog pills right? “Hey man you wanna get high on carprofen?” Just tell me what office you work at as a vet tech so I can avoid it like the plague…

I have a history here babe. My vet knows why my dog is prescribed her meds and is aware that she’s not given them everyday. 3 years and the routine hadn’t changed till now.

How is having pain meds longer than you’re supposed to suspicious? Isn’t the common behavior filling scripts early?

aSkInG FOr rEcoMenDAtioNs IS suSpIciOuS…. 90% of Reddit is looking for recommendations so move on. I bet you walk your dog in a stroller

Long term carprofen use can affect their liver, so they probably want to run some blood work, especially if your dog is older.

I don't understand this sentiment of "I'm not going to my vet who knows my dogs because I don't want to pay for a wellness exam. Let me take my dog to a new vet so I can pay for a totally different examination and have them run the blood so I can get these meds."

Comprehension isn’t your thing, that’s okay but I’m not going to explain this again. Feel free to reread slower. Take a min and let your brain catch up and if you still don’t get it, it’s okay. You’ll get there if you keep practicing.
