It doesn't seem set up to hold the animal's complete medical history. It also doesn't have any way to transmit or receive data from your vet's office. I see the pet information more for being used in a lost animal report or as a quick reminder when vaccines are due. I see the most value in the first aid and disaster preparedness information. I had no idea how to check Teddy's pulse or how to transport him if he gets hit by a car or some other horrible thing.

We have two cats, one is older and without any serious health issues (asthma & some joint problems) and the other one is diabetic and has extensive records. If it could somehow communicate directly with our vet's office it would become a Must-Have. As it stands, it's pretty good for the Disaster Preparedness & Fundamentals alone. Temtpting.
