How often do you visit the vet?

Just wondering how often everyone visits the vet?

We go once a year.

EDIT: If you go more than 4 times a year than just vote that and post about how many times.

I'm at the vet often, in fact Buster has an appointment in a couple hours.

Depends! Marta usually has to go in a few times because of something, Adele is barely ever sick and only goes in once a year, Vallis has had to go in a few times already and we've only had him 2 months! Seine has been in twice this last year, once for her shots, once to get spayed...

If they are completely healthy, at least once per year, but something usually happens and they need to go more often.

My dogs go in once a year, or once every couple of years.

Normally she goes in the summer because Her vet is an hour away and I am visiting my grandparents.

I go a minimum of 10 times a year but that's simply because I have 10 pets.

Less than once a year, just for emergencies, or illness. Miss Hoppy is pretty healthy, trims her own nails, and bites vets and vet assistants, so it is better for everyone concerned this way.

Usually not even once a year, for shots. I do go to the vet without Finn to get his flea spray and heartgard, but, other than that, only if he were to get hurt or sick.

I voted for 4, though its usually way more.
Aside from taking the dogs there to get their shots, we have to take Frisk & Ethan there to get their nails clipped every so often.
The cats only go once a year, though. Just for shots.
None of the other animals go unless its an emergency. The only non-canine, non-feline that has been to the vet this year was Otto(one of the rats) to get an abcess removed.

I voted once a year, probably less than that. I don't really take the cats unless they were to get sick or something like that, which hasn't actually happened yet. Roscoe has been there twice since we got him (about 1 year) - the first time just to check him out as soon as we got him, and the second time because he had a cut/mark on him that looked like it was infected. I have been really lucky with my pets, as they never get sick (aside from the occasional hair ball).

Around 3 times a year, sometimes more. We usually take them to get dipped and bathed, and their nails clipped around once a year. Then again for any shots they might need. If they get sick or hurt we take them in, which happens at least once a year.
