Free Google Sheet tracker
Make your dog’s baseline easier to repeat.
The printable worksheet is a start. The tracker is for the real habit: one short monthly check-in, clean notes, and a vet-visit summary you can export or print.
The button opens a Google Sheets copy prompt. Make your own copy before editing. Prefer Excel or Numbers? Download the spreadsheet file instead.
What’s inside
- Dog profile: weight, dates, diagnoses, medications, routines, home setup
- Monthly check-in: mobility, appetite, dental clues, behavior, and quality-of-life notes
- Vet Visit Prep: top changes, photos/videos, questions, and what to track next
- Trend View: simple counts for watch, vet-question, and call-sooner flags
- Instructions and safety boundaries so the tracker stays observation-first
1. Set the baseline
Fill the profile once
Add dates, current weight, known diagnoses, medication/supplement notes, home setup, and anything your veterinarian already told you to watch.
2. Check in monthly
Use short, concrete notes
Pick the same day each month. Write what changed, when it started, how often it happens, and whether you captured a photo or video.
3. Prepare for the visit
Bring a one-page summary
Before an appointment, use the Vet Visit Prep tab to collect the top three changes, questions, and what you want to track for the next 30 days.
Use this safely
An observation tracker, not medical advice.
The tracker does not diagnose your dog, rank severity, prescribe a protocol, or tell you whether something is urgent. It helps you keep better notes for your veterinarian.
If you notice new, severe, painful, scary, or worsening symptoms, contact your veterinarian instead of waiting for a monthly check-in.
