RALEIGH, NC, January 30, 2013 (Press-News.org) The North Carolina Veterinary Medical Association (www.ncvma.org) has announced the release of a podcast discussing the adoption and handling of rescue pets. Dr. Chessie Green, D.V.M., a veterinarian at Falls Village Veterinary Hospital in Raleigh and immediate past president of NCVMA, provides advice on proper adoption procedures and care of rescue pets. She discusses ways to ensure that new owners receive the correct medical history for their rescue pet, as well as what further medical steps an owner should take after adoption. In the podcast, Dr. Green identifies the major differences between adopting a rescue pet and buying one from a breeder. She includes explanations of psychological problems often faced by rescue pets and how owners can help pets overcome these challenges. The podcast is available to download at: http://bit.ly/WA7er8.
QUOTES:
"The adoption of a rescue pet is a wonderful thing for both animals and their owners," said Dr. Green. "However, it is crucial to make sure pets receive proper care post-adoption. Owners need to understand that many of these pets came from unknown backgrounds, and work with a veterinarian or a trainer to address the best methods for helping a rescue pet overcome any behavioral, psychological or physical ailments."
