Welcome
Welcome to Dr. Truli’s blog intended for pet parents who need pet health insight, coaching and guidance, and even one-on-one private veterinary consultations and second opinions. In my daily practice, I meet many pet parents who are looking for deeper answers, need to know how to interpret news and information they find, and need to know how to navigate healthcare decisions for their pet. Everyone secretly wonders: “What would you do if it were your cat?” “Tell me-as a friend–is it worth it?” and “How do I know if my dog has a good quality of life?” We wish, at times, our best friend was a veterinarian so we could ask the sensitive and sometimes awkward questions we feel we cannot ask a professional in the office call. I became a veterinarian to help animals and to find out what do doctors know that’s so special? My wish is to impart some of my journey to you. To share my perspective and insight into pets, their people, medicine, the modern medical community, and even explore the meaning of health and wellness. You can’t leave Doc Truli’s office – or blog – without a dose of philosophy!
Do you have a post about your views or insights on pet health insurance? I searched, but didn’t find one. If not, could you write about that at some point?
Dear Sharon,
I was writing a post regarding pet insurance when your thoughtful comment came in. It should be ready by Saturday, the 20th, which I believe will still be in time for you to get insurance before your new puppy arrives!
Yours,
Doc Truli
Sharon–
I finished a post about pet insurance
I hope it gives you food for thought.
I believe the Trupanion insurance is the easiest, nicest, most comprehensive, and certainly highest limits and payouts for the premium.
Of course, as usual, I do not receive money or anything from any company or product I mention on VirtuaVet. I just want as many people as possible to benefit from the stories and experiences other people have already found to be helpful.
Why make all the mistakes yourself when others can make them for you? There are always new and creative ways to screw up without suffering through all the basics!
Yours,
Doc Truli
