Preventive bloodwork supports earlier detection, better treatment decisions, and more informed dog owners. Advocacy helps make these practices more common statewide.
Earlier detection
Baseline labs can reveal changes before symptoms appear—when intervention is often simpler.
Better decisions
Results help veterinarians tailor care plans and monitor trends over time.
More awareness
Public education reduces delays in care and empowers owners to ask the right questions.
