Planning note
| Reminder | General timing prompt | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Vaccinations | Ask your vet when boosters are due | Keeps core disease protection and records up to date. |
| Rabies booster | Record the due date from your vet | Rabies prevention is a serious South African public-health responsibility. |
| Deworming | Set reminders based on vet and product guidance | Schedules vary by age, risk, household, and product instructions. |
| Tick and flea prevention | Use the interval your vet recommends | South African gardens, parks, kennels, beaches, and warm seasons can increase risk. |
| Routine vet checkup | Ask your vet for a routine check rhythm | Catches weight, dental, skin, mobility, and prevention issues earlier. |
| Grooming and coat checks | Plan by coat type and season | Helps spot ticks, fleas, grass seeds, matting, ear issues, and paw problems. |
| Dental checks | Ask your vet what to watch at home | Bad breath, tartar, pain, and gum changes can affect comfort and health. |
