One photo.
Three different kinds of information.
See what comes from the image, what comes from you, and what remains open. They should never look like the same evidence.
- 01Choose your photo
Check the subject and image quality.
- 02Review and add context
Confirm visible details and what you noticed.
- 03Read with the limits
Review the non-diagnostic guidance.
Does PetCheck diagnose my pet?
No. It organizes visible stool features and the context you provide. A photo cannot establish a cause or replace a veterinarian’s examination.
Do I need an account?
You can start a photo check without an account. Account-connected memory and subscription features have their own requirements. View the plans or open your account.
What happens to this example?
Nothing is saved or sent. It is a fictional explanation, not a completed check. Choosing your own photo starts the existing photo-check flow with your information.
START WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
Your photo.
The context that matters.
Choose an existing stool photo or take one in the next screen. Review the visible details, then add what you know.
