About this deal

Talk to you. No-one knows your pet better than their owner and you can give your vet lots of important information. They’ll ask about your pet’s history, behaviour and any changes in the way they’ve been acting. If you notice a change in your pet (e.g. they’re eating less or going to the toilet more often) make a note so you can tell your vet. Disclaimer: The Kennel Club is an information resource and publishes the results of DNA single gene health tests from the respective testing laboratory. For our feline friends the use of vaccinations and the length of their immunity is an area under much investigation and study currently. The protection from the leptospirosis vaccination does not last a long time and it is for this reason we recommend yearly vaccination against this disease. We know that the immunity for the other diseases does last longer and it is because of this knowledge that we vaccinate against parvovirus, hepatitis, and distemper every 3rd year.

Sometimes there’s more than one way to treat your pet. Your vet will talk you through the risks and benefits of each option. 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. Uncover your pet's abilities and find out how your pet compares to the rest of the nation by putting it to the test. Our Standard Equine Sensitivity Test is designed as your first step to a better understanding of your animal. 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 100 common items including Meats and Dairy, Egg, Gluten and Vegetables, and Non-food Environmental Items.Therefore the presence of antibodies to a particular illness may suggest that your pet is immune to that illness. We strongly advise that puppies and kittens are given their initial vaccines when they are young as the immunity they get from mum starts to drop as they get older and needs a boost. This initial vaccine course comprises of two vaccines given 2 – 4 weeks apart for dogs and 3-4 weeks apart for cats, followed by their first ‘booster’ when they are just over a year old. 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. 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. Our priority testing service promises a 2-business day turnaround on test results, compared to our standard testing period of up to 5 business days.

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. As part of testing for an allergy, your vet will likely suggest carrying out an elimination diet for your pet. This will involve feeding your pet an alternative diet (usually called a hydrolysed protein diet), which cuts out likely allergens. Then, after the dietary exclusion period, you’ll start reintroducing ‘normal’ foods – it should be obvious from these test results which (if any) foods trigger allergic reactions in your pet. 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. 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.

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. All dogs are friendly if socialized from an early age. That said, some breeds are known for their love of all people. Some of these breeds with particularly outgoing personalities include: the Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Poodle (whether Standard or Toy), Beagle, and Pembroke Welsh Corgi. If you are bringing home a very young pup (i.e. <12 weeks of age) and want to get a better sense of its sociability, you should spend some time with its parents, as pups often inherit their parents' temperaments. If the puppy is older (i.e. 4-6 months old), you can likely observe its social aptitude firsthand by spending time with the puppy. What Is a Good Breed for a First Time Owner? Before your vet can give your pet the right treatment, they need to pinpoint exactly what’s wrong. This process is called ‘diagnosis’ and there are plenty of tools and resources to help your vet go about it. If you have any further questions related to your test result, please don't hesitate to reach out to [email protected] and the team will be more than happy to help.

Our pet test is one of the most comprehensive on the market and tests for most common pet food items, but also covers a variety of human foods that pets may unintentionally consume. Our Standard Cat Sensitivity Test is designed as your first step to a better understanding of your pet. The Kennel Club excludes liability to the extent it is legally entitled to do so (including indirect, consequential or incidental damages) in respect of any decision made or action taken or not taken in reliance upon information provided by the DNA single gene health test results published.Please note, our labs and offices are closed during weekends and bank holidays and this may affect response times. We advised that you vaccinate against kennel cough if your dog is socially active – if it meets other dogs in kennels, doggy day care or out on walks or if it walks on areas that other dogs also enjoy. As a UK veterinary practice we believe that vaccination against the core diseases (canine parvovirus, distemper, canine hepatitis and leptospirosis for dogs; feline panleukopenia virus, feline herpes virus and feline calicivirus) and non core diseases (including kennel cough and feline leukaemia virus) protects your pet and the wider animal population by minimising the chances infectious disease has to infect new victims.

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. 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.Note: Upon request and at its discretion, The Kennel Club may require a test to be retaken to confirm a clear result. All of our vets are more than happy to discuss our vaccination protocols and provide you with any information you may need to make an informed choice that is right for your pet and your family.
