PetSavers, the BSAVA's charitable division, has published My Dog’s Got, a series of downloadable guides for the owners of dogs that have been diagnosed with a specific veterinary condition.

BSAVA President Sue Paterson said: "By signposting clients to extra downloadable advice or handing them a printed guide when they leave consultation room, we will hopefully reduce their temptation to run potentially misleading ‘Dr Google’ searches to find out more about the diagnosis."

The series includes:

• My dog does not like other dogs

• My dog has dental disease

• My dog has diabetes

• My dog has itchy skin

• My dog has kidney disease

They join the PetSavers existing library of general online guides on Puppies, Kittens, Rabbits, Guinea pigs, Caring for your elderly pet and Losing your pet. 

Printed versions of the new guides can be ordered by veterinary practices to use in their reception areas, in exchange for a donation to PetSavers.

The new guides can be downloaded at http://www.petsavers.org.uk/Pet-guides
