Description
Want to know why your dog is scratching? Or perhaps why your cat is sneezing?
The petMD pet Symptom Checker allows you to easily search over 2,500 dog and cat health articles based on the symptoms your pet is experiencing.
Why is my pet scratching so much? How do I recognize skin conditions? What are roundworms and how do I treat them in my dog? Does my dog have kennel cough?
Find Answers to these questions and hundreds of others relating to your dog or cats health.
All articles are written and approved by veterinarians. Each article contains a detailed description explaining the condition, its symptoms, causes, diagnosis, the best treatment options combined with living and management of the condition, and prevention, if applicable.
And though every petMD article referenced on the Symptom Checker app is written and approved by veterinarians, it should not replace your own veterinarian. The petMD Symptom Checker is meant as a guide to help you understand conditions that may be affecting your pet. Always visit your veterinarian regularly to care for your pet’s health.

Good. This is a good overall program. It is great to organize your observations so you can better help your vet. Would you try to fix and diagnose your kids with a computer program that was free, no! So why would you want to try to do that to your four legged family member.
★★☆☆☆
Not very helpful All you do is pick either dog or cat and check the symptoms. Then it provides articles for EVERY SINGLE SYMPTOM instead of the combination of symptoms and how they relate... Not helpful, take forever to find a useful article.
★★☆☆☆
It needs tweeking Grouping the areas to find symptoms is helpful, but with the set up limiting and makes it hard to get an idea of what may be going on. Many illness exhibit symptoms in multiple areas, but with this app not allowing for cross area symptom recording, it's not very thorough. Unfortunately because of this I am deleting it.

WTF? Downloaded the app to check on my sick pup. Unfortunately this app is useless if your pet is having symptoms in say the behaviour section, stomach and skin section. There should be a way you can 1. Choose all symptoms from every area , 2. Have more symptoms to choose from, and 3. Be able to pin point a few possibilities it could be instead of scaring the reader. We don't want to be scared into going to the vet if we don't have to nor do we want to be scared our little companion isn't going to make it!
★★☆☆☆
If you input symptoms of something like GI obstruction, it links you to articles about liver fibrosis and cancer...wtf?! Terrible...just call your vet or local ER vet if you are not sure what's going on with your pet...
