Pet Summary Services Are Helpful

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

I spend a lot of time reviewing products and services for pets because of the many special needs of my customers. Today, I surfed around on Pet Summary and loved it. I’m working on signing up all four of my animals. It’s the medic alert concept designed for pets.

I’ve been a member of Medic Alert for many years because we travel a lot, and I have some complicated reactions to a number of medications. Since all of our animals are elderly and/or special needs animals, they also have complex medical needs.

Pet Summary is an exciting discovery for me. I’ve carried manila files crammed with records for years. It’s one of the first things I grab when there is a storm warning or an upcoming trip. I even take them to the vet with me in case we need to find something that goes back beyond the records our current vet has on file.

Knowing if those records disappeared that the medical information for all of our animals would be intact and recoverable is wonderful. I think these folks have a timely idea and from my visit and basic entries on the site, the site and the process are well done too. It was easy to work through the initial steps. I still need to go back and fill out the detailed information when I have more time, but I’m quite impressed–and I might add that I’m not that easy to impress with this stuff.

Take time to visit these folks and register your pets. If you or your vet ever have a disaster that causes a loss of your pets records, it will be well worth the few minutes it takes to get everything set up online.
