The Pet Check Up At Home Test Kit

The Pet Check Up

How it works

ThePetCheckup is an easy to use, early detection urinalysis test. When you give this home health screen to your dogs and cats on a regular basis (we recommend monthly) you can locate many common illnesses that affect their health—even before symptoms appear.The same test materials in ThePetCheckup are used routinely in veterinary clinics. Now they are combined in a home health kit so that you can take a more active role in keeping your cats and dogs healthy and happy.

Early detection means:
• Prevention of more serious illness
• Simpler, more effective treatments
• Less pain and discomfort for your pet
• Less expensive treatments for you
• Peace of mind

Robert Wiegert, Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and technical advisor for this product, says, “Many of the conditions that we see are correctable, often by dietary changes alone, if they are detected early enough. The problem is that by the time we see the animal, the condition is often advanced and more difficult to treat.”

Give your animal friend and your veterinarian the advantage of early detection

The test materials included in ThePetCheckup are specially packaged for you to use on your dogs and cats at home.

Four easy steps are all it takes.

1. Getting ready.

ThePetCheckup complete kit comes with a 6 month supply of test materials in individually sealed packets, a color chart to compare your test results and an easy to read instruction manual which guides you through the next 3 steps. The test materials consist of a reagent strip (commonly called a “dipstick”) which has 9 reagents or pads affixed to each strip and a disposable plastic dropper. The reagents change color when they come in contact with your pet’s urine. You will find the whole process very simple to do and after your very first test, you will feel like a pro. We have included 2 extra packets of test materials in your kit to help you feel even more comfortable.

ThePetCheckup is inexpensive. It cost less than $4.00/month to help protect your pet’s health.

2. Collecting a urine sample

The manual gives you several suggestions/tips for collecting a urine sample from dogs and from cats—starting with simply observing your animal’s habits to determine which method might work best for you. You need only about a teaspoon to conduct the test and there is no pressure from having to get a sample by a particular time.

Many of our customers start out by using one of the suggestions in the manual for collecting urine and then quickly come up with their own creative ideas which works best for them.

Here is some feedback we have received:

“One of our dogs, Gus, has had a chronic bladder problem, and we’ve found ThePetCheckup to be very helpful in checking on his health. It is incredibly easy to use. I simply use a plastic-coated paper plate to collect his urine (he doesn’t notice a thing), apply the urine to the strip, compare the colors on the strip with the colors on the chart, and very quickly know whether or not he needs a trip to the veterinarian. It is such an easy way to monitor his health that I have started using it on our other animals. ThePetCheckup really works for us.”

“Thank you for sending me ThePetCheckup kit so promptly. I followed the suggestions in the manual for collecting a urine sample from my cat Violet and found the whole process to be very simple and straightforward. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. Although Violet has been quite healthy her entire life (she is now 8 years old), I still tend to worry about her health. The test is actually fun to do and it gives me a nice feeling of comfort to know that I am able to give her this added care.”

“When I want to do ThePetCheckup test, I find it very easy to collect a urine sample from my two cats. As suggested in the manual, I started by watching their habits more closely. I saw that one of my cats heads towards the kitty pan as I am getting his food ready in the morning and I put a plastic garbage bag over the top of the litter before he steps into the pan. After he has finished using the litter box, I take a few droppersful in a plastic cup to do the test. It required a little planning the first time, but now it is simply an easy routine I do once a month. It is an easy and inexpensive way to help keep them healthy. Thanks for making this great product!”

Refill is easy and saves even more money.

3. Running the test

Simply put a drop of your pet’s urine on each of the reagent pads and wait the appropriate amount of seconds. Then compare your test strip to the color chart included in your manual.

4. Reading the results is easy,
Just compare the test strip with the color bars shown on the color chart to evaluate the results.

If a test result does indicate an abnormality, you will be able to get veterinary care before the problem becomes serious and more difficult to treat.

Note: ThePetCheckup has helped many canines and felines, but it is not designed to diagnose or to replace regular veterinary exams. Only a veterinarian can make a medically accurate diagnosis of your animal’s condition.
