Product Information

Diagnosing what’s wrong with a pet can be a challenge – they can’t tell us directly how they feel, or where it hurts. Getting to the bottom of what’s wrong with a pet can take a bit of detective work. Scans and x-rays. These help your vet see inside your pet’s body. X-rays can help a vet find broken or fractured bones and see how serious the injury is. X-rays can also help to flag up if a pet has eaten something it shouldn’t - vets have spotted spoons, toys and even a TV aerial on x-rays! Other scans, like ultrasounds, can help diagnose conditions like kidney stones, tumours or heart problems. Please note, our labs and offices are closed during weekends and bank holidays and this may affect response times. Our Cat Plus Test designed as the most comprehensive test providing you with a wide range of results giving you the best possible start on Cat’s health journey.

Your vet will talk you through the risks and benefits of each option. Uncover your pet's abilities and find out how your pet compares to the rest of the nation by putting it to the test.Diagnosing the problem is just the first step in their treatment. Next, your vet will talk you through what’s best for your pet. We can also vaccinate against Rabies if your pet is travelling abroad and this is a legal requirement. Tests. Your vet might need to take some blood, urine, skin or even poo samples. These tests can help confirm what’s wrong with your pet or rule out some possible illnesses. At PDSA, some of these tests can be done in house at our Pet Hospitals, keeping the costs down. Other tests need to be sent off for analysis, so it can take a little longer to find out the results. To complicate things still further titre tests are not 100% reliable and there are many different tests available on the market. It is possible to get false negative results (where the test says your pet has less antibodies than it actually does) and false positive results (where the test says your pet has more antibodies than it actually does). False positive results can lead you to believe that your dog has antibody protection against disease that it doesn’t have. We advocate discovering the cause of your pet’s sensitivities and learning which foods and products are best for your pet—and which to avoid.

Not all illnesses can be 100% confirmed by tests. Some tests might be painful or dangerous, particularly for older pets. If your vet has narrowed it down to two or three likely illnesses, they may recommend trying one treatment at a time and seeing which helps your pet. Your vet is using years of training and experience to make this decision and will always keep the welfare of your pet as a priority.

What Is the Friendliest Dog Breed?

Using just a small sample of hair/fur, we can extract a huge wealth of data in the Test My Pets laboratories, allowing us to test against 300 items including Meats and Dairy, Egg, Gluten and Vegetables, Non-food Environmental Items, Metals Vitamins and Minerals. Therefore the presence of antibodies to a particular illness may suggest that your pet is immune to that illness. Our Dog Plus Test designed as the most comprehensive test providing you with a wide range of results giving you the best possible start on Dog’s health journey. Please note that while simply avoiding known allergens may help to reduce symptoms, it’s often unlikely to completely resolve them. Therefore, an additional form of treatment (e.g. medication) is usually required too. Discover which pet was the cleverest, how much people spend on their animals, and how your pets responded to Pet TV.
