Does it take an act of Congress to get your cat in their carrier when it’s time to go to the veterinarian? Does your canine friend quake with fear when they face a veterinary visit? Veterinary telehealth may help relieve your furry friend’s stress and anxiety, as well as provide several other benefits. However, you should first learn the ins and outs of veterinary telehealth, so you know what to expect. In the state of Georgia a valid Veterinary-Client-Paitent-Relationship (VCPR) must be formed in order for a veterinarian to legally prescribe medications for a pet. Per Georgia laws a VCPR is established only when your veterinarian examines your animal in person (can not be established online) and must be maintained by regular veterinary visits as needed to monitor your animal’s health.
