Photo guide
Take an overview and a closer view if your pet is comfortable. A photo cannot distinguish every cause of similar-looking skin changes.
- Use a clear, unfiltered JPG, PNG, or WebP photo.
- Keep the relevant area in focus and use even lighting.
- Only upload photos you own or have permission to share.
- Avoid faces, personal documents, or other private details.
From a photo to a clearer record
- Choose your pet and add a photo. Optional details help provide context.
- Review the available plan and service status before proceeding.
- Read the report’s observations and limitations together. Keep your original photo and notes for your veterinarian.
Useful notes about skin and coat
- The exact location and whether more than one area has changed
- When the change began and whether the visible area has grown
- Licking, scratching, and any recent grooming or product changes
Changes over time and your pet’s behavior often add context that a still image does not contain.
Questions before uploading
Can a photo tell me exactly what is wrong?
No. Different conditions can look similar, and some problems are not visible in a photo. Treat the output as an observation aid, not a diagnosis.
Should I wait for a report if I am worried?
No. Contact your veterinarian directly if you are concerned. An upload or report is not an emergency service.
Can I use this to choose medication?
No. Ask a veterinarian about medication, treatment, and care instructions for your individual pet.
A note about care
PawGlance provides AI-generated observations for educational use. A photo cannot confirm a diagnosis, rule out illness, or replace a veterinary examination. Do not delay veterinary care while waiting for a report.
