As for joints, I'm sure many vets check them yearly. Again though, some don't. Ears and joints wouldn't be too important for a spay. I'd be much more concerned about heart, lungs, maybe abdominal palpation, and bloodwork.
Bloods should really be done at least once yearly in young dogs. It's usually skipped which isn't a good idea. |
