It can be difficult to describe a movement change you have noticed only briefly. A note about when it happens, the surface underfoot and the activity around it can help you explain what caught your attention at an appointment.
For a dog with an elbow dysplasia diagnosis, the assessment conversation should still be individual. Ask what the team would like to learn from the assessment, how that connects with the veterinary history and how you will revisit your questions over time.
Take into your next conversation
- Describe the context around a change you notice.
- Bring questions rather than trying to interpret findings yourself.
- Discuss what a useful review would look like.
