Before submitting, please take the time to read the following important criteria:

Ask the vet Vetgb.com is now offering veterinary information online. This information service is in an "open" public format so please bear this in mind if you decide to try it. The idea is that you can "ask the vet" by submitting your question any time online. Over time, the questions and answers have built into a substantial information resource to help pet owners everywhere. We would also like to encourage debate and feedback on veterinary issues, so registered users will also be able to post comments in response to the questions which have been submitted.

Veterinary information online Although this site can never take the place of a veterinary consultation it will hopefully help owners who are unsure whether to seek such a consultation. It will also help if you would like to understand your pet's illness or condition better, or if you would like information and help regarding your pet's behaviour. Of course if you have questions about how to house and feed your pet or any other husbandry issues which you would like clarified we can help too. In short we will be happy to try to answer any veterinary related questions which you may have. However if you are ever in any doubt regarding the urgency or seriousness of your pet's condition then seek immediate veterinary advice from your local veterinary practice.

How to use the service To use the online veterinary information service, simply register and then follow the link. Uploading a relevant picture may also be helpful in giving you more accurate information: you can upload a JPEG (popular digital format used by almost all digital cameras and scanners) from the online request form. Please note that if you submit or upload a picture by doing so you are agreeing for this image to be published on the site - please read Terms and Conditions for more details.

Important - please read this carefully if you intend to ask a question, and/or submit (upload) an image to the site. When you submit content such as text or image(s) you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to exercise the copyright, database rights and any other intellectual property rights you have in the content in any media known now or in the future. In addition, you waive all moral rights you have in the content to the fullest extent permitted by law. These rights are necessary in order to host and display your content.

A vision for online veterinary information This site will build into a valuable community resource for all people with an interest in animals and pet keeping. We committ to respond to paid questions within 24 hours or you will automatically receive a refund.
