My 3 year old miniature schnauzer had recently been diagnosed with diabetes and needed twice daily insulin shots in order to get better. When his regular vet was having trouble getting his blood sugar under control I took him to Polo Springs vet hosp to see if they could help him. After my first appointment I discovered how much I hadn't been told about how to properly treat a dog with diabetes. During my initial appointment at Polo Springs, the vet and her two nurses spent a considerable amount of time with me, instructing me on how to give my dog his insulin shots and what I needed to do at home to make sure he was doing okay. They also took the time to answer all of my questions. The vet diagnosed him with a bladder infection which she said contributed to his blood sugar problems. Once the infection was gone and the vet made some changes in his insulin dose, my dog was like a puppy again. I really appreciated all the time they took to help my dog get better.
