The Complete Home Exam Guide
Your vet sees your pet for 15 minutes a year. You see them every single day. But are you seeing what matters?
This premium guide teaches you how to examine your pet like a veterinarian — in under 5 minutes, once a week. 8 body systems, clear instructions, and a simple 3-level system for every finding: Normal (all clear), Watch (monitor 48-72 hours), or Vet Now (call today).
Station 1: Eyes — clarity, pupil size, discharge, third eyelid. How to spot glaucoma signs before vision loss.
Station 2: Ears — color, odor, discharge, pain response. The nose test that detects infection before your eyes do.
Station 3: Mouth & Teeth — gum color, capillary refill, tartar, breath odor, lumps. The gum color chart that tells you normal vs. emergency in 2 seconds.
Station 4: Skin & Coat — lumps, hot spots, flaking, hydration, parasites. The lump tracker method your vet will thank you for.
Station 5: Joints & Mobility — gait, stiffness, range of motion, pain signs. Early arthritis detection saves thousands.
Station 6: Weight & Body Condition — the 30-second BCS assessment most owners never learned.
Station 7: Vital Signs — heart rate, breathing rate, temperature. Normal ranges for small, medium, and large dogs plus cats. Know when numbers mean emergency.
Station 8: Digestion & Elimination — stool color guide, urine frequency, the warning signs hidden in what most owners ignore.
Also includes: The 60-Second Emergency Scan (when something feels "off" but you can't pinpoint it), a monthly printable exam log to track changes over time, and a quick reference vital signs card to save on your phone.
Connects directly to every module in The Forbidden Pet Health Vault — each exam station references the exact protocol to follow when you find something.
Veterinary problems caught early cost $200. Caught late: $2,000-$5,000. This guide is the difference.
The vault teaches you what to DO. This guide teaches you what to SEE.
