The New York-based Animal Medical Center is launching an online resource for pet owners to understand their animal’s health.

The Pet Health Library from AMC’s Usdan Institute for Animal Health Education provides information on commonly searched and frequently diagnosed illnesses and conditions, as well as wellness and prevention tips. AMC says all content is verified and will be updated weekly.

“Through our ongoing educational and outreach efforts, we know that pet owners are looking for reliable and accurate pet health information online,” said Michelle Leifer, the institute’s director.

Each topic includes:

A background of the disease or illness
An overview of risk factors
Clinical signs and symptoms
Diagnostic measurements and procedures
Treatment options and prevention information
Illustrations, including photos and videos
