One time would be when the vet suspects a metabolic disease such as Diabetes, Cushing's and Addison's disease, which all have well characterized abnormalities that show up in the urine. Also, a vet would run a urinalysis if he suspected urinary bladder infection, as the bacteria/yeast/fungi will often be seen in the urine.
==TAKE THIS DOG TO THE VET RIGHT AWAY. ANY ANIMAL THAT HAS BLOOD IN IT'S URINE SHOULD GO TO THE VET ASAP!!!!== ==If you we're peeing and you saw blood in your urine, would you be posting a message on wikianswers or would you be on the phone with the doctor??==
if done at vet and vet told you the pH or it shows on the report ask why? always get a copy of all blood work and urine tests from your vet.
He could have crystals in the urine. A vet could check for oxfilate and surfilate crystals.
The only real way to test an animal for internal parasites is to have fecal test, at the local vet/animal/exotics specialist.
Not normally. A vet would treat any age of animal.
A big animal vet is called a large animal vet, a rural vet or a farm vet
I think a vet would wear a lab coat, at least when working with an animal
well you could be a vet, or breeder ,or farm animal vet, if you would hate to put a animal to sleep i would recommend being a breeder or vet assistant.
Yes. You need to be one of two things... either an emergency vet who goes on animal rescues or a wildlife vet. An emergency vet is who people would call if they found an injured animal on the side of the road, and things like that. The emergency vet, no matter what kind of animal it was, would do his or her best to make the animal better. This can occur with domestic and wild animals. Or, you could be a wildlife vet. Hence the name, this vet would go out into the wilderness LOOKING for injured wildlife.
take it to the vet would be the smartest idea
No. Go to a vet, they will do a test on your cat and find out.
You would have to know a lot about horses, then study to become a large animal vet at a college.
