description	Build a preventive-care (wellness) plan for a pet by species, breed, and life stage. Use when asked to create a wellness plan, plan preventive care, set up a vaccination/parasite schedule, or advise an owner on routine care for a puppy/kitten/adult/senior pet. Produces a life-stage-appropriate schedule — vaccinations, parasite prevention, dental, nutrition, screening diagnostics, and behavioral guidance — with the rationale, so an owner sees preventive care as a plan, not a series of surprise visits.

Wellness Plan Skill

Most pet owners only see the vet when something's wrong — and miss the cheap, preventable problems that become expensive, serious ones. This skill lays out a life-stage wellness plan so the owner knows what care their pet needs, when, and why: the shots, the parasite prevention, the dental, the screenings that catch disease early.

Working from a brief

Given the pet, produce the full plan — tailor to species, breed predispositions, and life stage, and note that specifics (vaccine cores/non-cores, parasite risk) vary by region and lifestyle and should be confirmed with the attending veterinarian. Do not present this as a substitute for an exam.

Required Inputs

Ask for (if not provided, else infer and label):

• Species, breed, age/life stage, and rough location/lifestyle (indoor/outdoor, travel, other pets)
• Current status — known vaccines, spay/neuter, existing conditions
• Owner priorities/constraints if any (budget, first-time owner)

Output Format

Life stage & what it means

Puppy/kitten · adult · senior — the care priorities that shift with each, and any breed-specific predispositions to watch.

Preventive-care schedule

Area	Recommendation	Timing / frequency	Why
Vaccinations	core + lifestyle-based non-core	series / boosters
Parasite prevention	heartworm, flea/tick, deworming
Dental	home care + professional cleaning
Nutrition & weight	diet for life stage, body-condition target
Screening diagnostics	baseline/senior bloodwork, etc.
Spay/neuter	if applicable
Behavior	socialization, training, enrichment

The rationale

Short, plain "why this matters" for the owner — especially the preventable-becomes-serious cases (heartworm, dental disease, obesity, early kidney disease).

The year ahead

A simple timeline of the next 12 months' visits/actions so it reads as a plan, with a note that the vet will tailor it at the exam.

Quality Checks

• The plan is tailored to species, breed predispositions, and life stage
• It covers vaccines, parasite prevention, dental, nutrition, screening, and behavior
• Each recommendation has a timing and a plain-language rationale
• Regional/lifestyle variation and the need to confirm with the vet are noted
• It's framed as a proactive plan (a 12-month view), not a one-off list
• It doesn't present as a substitute for a physical exam

Anti-Patterns

• A generic schedule that ignores species, breed, and region
• Vaccine/parasite specifics stated as universal when they vary by locale and lifestyle
• Skipping dental, weight, and behavior (the commonly-neglected pillars)
• No rationale, so the owner sees cost without understanding value
• Positioning it as a replacement for a veterinary exam
