🩺 Is Your Pet’s Health on Track? Check Their Vitals at Home! 🐾🏡

Knowing your pet’s normal vital signs can help you spot an emergency before it’s too late! Here’s how to check:

❤️ Pulse Check: Place your hand on their chest or feel for a pulse inside their thigh. Count for 15 seconds, then multiply by 4!

💨 Breathing Rate: Watch their chest rise and fall—normal rates vary by species, but fast or labored breathing is a red flag!

👅 Gum Check: Healthy gums should be pink and moist. Pale, blue, or bright red gums? Call your vet immediately!

🚨 If something seems off—don’t wait. Seek veterinary care ASAP!
