We have lots of those patients in pawspice care. In-home care for pets takes a special kind of group commitment, according to Dr. Villalobos. Client and veterinary staff must all play a part in the pawspice care team. Willingness, she said is a key component. Dr. Villalobos assigns instructions and special duties to her clients for in-home care that also give the owner a sense of purpose.
People love shopping.
Some families, she said, even acquire portable oxygen tanks for their pets. We show them brochures, tell them about day care, bandage materials, therapy pools. They love it. We give them something to do, and it's a fantastic way to help people to tackle some of their problems. She recommends group sessions for pet loss and encourages networking.
