I have a 3-year-old Westie named Hamish. He certainly has “Westitude”, and I love him dearly. He has been my companion since he was seven weeks old. He has the typical Westie health issues - allergies, dermatitis, ear infections. However, at 1 year old he was diagnosed with a serious disease - a liver shunt (portosystemic shunt). It is a birth defect wherein the blood bypasses the liver, preventing proper detoxification. Toxins build up in the bloodstream and can cause potentially fatal health concerns. He has also been diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) and urine crystals in his bladder. Hamish has had four partners managing his care. He is fortunate to have Horseshoe Valley Veterinarians (Barrie, ON) and their team as his primary care givers. They are a wonderful team of professionals. Then there is team at the Toronto Animal Health Partners Emergency and Specialty Hospital who took care of him in June, 2023 when they diagnosed his liver shunt and performed the surgery on him in August to close it. Another partner are the experts at Royal Canin who help choose the diet supporting his special needs. These have been challenging times for Hamish and me, and all his health care providers. Thankfully, and importantly, our fourth partner, Pets Plus Us is the cornerstone of his heath. They have helped with the vet bills and give me peace-of-mind to enable me to continue treating his various health issues. Their pet portal is easy to use to find out details about my policy and to submit my claims and medical records. And they are prompt at reimbursing me!Pet Plus Us helps me give Hamish the care he needs to stay healthy and to keep him by my side.Thank you, Pets Plus Us!
