Paw Tips Videos

Before you leave NorthStar VETS, you may go through our discharge process, wherein one of our veterinary technicians gives you instructions on how to care for your pet once you get home. For some pet parents, it helps to have a refresher on what was shown before leaving, and that is the inspiration behind Paw Tips, a video series with refresher instructions on common things you may need to do for your pet at home.
