    I never made a claim from my previous insurance company, so there is no record of back problems. Will be moving to my previous vets with a dog never seen by them.

    Do you not think us vets share information with each other and with insurance companies ;)

  • And poilicies get tighter every year. You may not be covered for multiple things if there hasn't at least been a yearly check up.

    How are they going to connect the two though? Unless the OP told the middle vet the first vet's details? All the middle vet has is a one-off visit by a dog with the same name but different address.

    Just curious. I certainly couldn't do what the OP suggested and, thankfully, she's decided she can't either. In all honesty I don't blame her for thinking about it. If the choice came down to that or the dog suffering/ being pts.
  • The vet industry is tiny! Local practices speak, vets and nurses are married and work in different practices close to each other... for professional reasons we compare notes on case outcomes, treatment, referral success...

    None of this is intended to unearth insurance/ownership issues but you would be surprised!!!

    Other than her vaccinations when she was a pup she has had no need to see my original vet. I have never taken her for boosters. She has been recently been seen by a vet who has no record of my address, and the vet i would take her to has never seen her before. The iodine used in the myelogram will have been absorbed into her body, so no treatment will be detected.

    Aside from your main question I have to ask - why have you never taken you dog to have it's annual boosters? Seems like you don't really have the best interests of you dog at heart?
