Buddy's Vets explains how to recognize hidden pain in pets

(WFRV)- Pets cannot tell their owners when something hurts, but they can show signs of pain if owners know what to look for. In this segment, Dr. Jaleesa Harper with Buddy's Vets discusses early signs of pain that many pet owners may miss. She explains that the first sign of pain is often a change in behavior rather than an obvious physical symptom, such as limping on an injured leg. She shares that pets hide pain because it is their instinct to avoid vulnerability. Dr. Harper discusses treating pain early to prevent severe damage, explaining that she believes the best approach to maintaining quality of life is multimodal pain management. Buddy's Vets is located at 1636 Hoffman Road and 2295 West Mason Street in Green Bay.
