"Ask the Veterinarian": A New Feature Coming Soon to All Things Dog Blog

Hank Says, "Stay Tuned for our New

Ask the Vet Column: Coming Soon"

My recent poll asked readers for their opinions on improvements to my blog. You asked for it and YOU'RE GETTING IT! Your top request was for the addition of an "Ask the Vet" column. I've had my feelers out for just the right person, and today is our day. Dr. Jacki Bert, is sharpening her pencils and warming up her computer, ready to answer your questions.

So, what do you need to do? Start thinking of what you'd like to ask our Staff Veterinarian. After all, that's what you pay the big bucks for at this free blog, right?!! I'll be introducing her soon, so be sure to visit often.

I'm very proud to be able to pull this off, and I just know you will love YOUR new doctor. She's a delightful young mom with a talented family, as well.

Here's the rules:

Questions must be general in nature. The doctor cannot diagnose via the Internet or give specialized advice. Your questions should be useful to many readers.
Ask questions that are specific to dog medical issues, dog health, dog diet, and any other topics that relate to the general, physical well-being of your best friend.
Feel free to include a photo or photos of your furry friend to include in the answer to your question. No photos with people in them, please. By sending photos, you agree to have them posted with the pet's first name on the blog. You may specify that you would like your first name indicated as the pet's owner, if you wish. Your last name and any personal information about you will not be included.

Send your questions to the blog at LetsAdoptaDogPark@gmail.com , and attach digital photos to your email. Multiple questions are welcome, but should be submitted in separate e-mails to help us stay organized. Thanks!

I cannot promise that all questions will be answered on the blog, as we cannot predict the response to this column. Personal responses will not be possible.

Our new column, Ask the Vet, will be up and running soon, so be the first to get your questions in. No office visit fees, paperwork or waiting rooms. It doesn't get any easier than this. What would you like to know about your dog's health?

Questions? Hit the comment link just below this post (next to the envelope icon), send me an email with "Ask the Vet" in the subject line. Get going now. Dr. Jacki is waiting to hear from YOU.
