Canine chronic-pain and mobility screen (CBPI owner instrument) — Philadelphia, PA.

Dogs hide chronic pain, and keepers read the slowdown as 'just getting old'. The Canine Brief Pain Inventory turns two minutes of structured questions into a pain-severity and interference trend a veterinarian can act on early. Philadelphia is home to the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine (Penn Vet), founded 1884 as the first veterinary school developed in association with a medical school in the US, and to PAWS (Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society) — the city's largest rescue organization and only no-kill shelter, whose Grays Ferry Spay/Neuter & Wellness Clinic (opened March 2010) serves roughly 18,000 pets a year, including more than 8,000 spay/neuter surgeries, for owners who otherwise struggle to afford or access basic veterinary care. A screen without an affordable place to route a positive finding is dead advice; this city has one.

Pay

$130 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

A completed CBPI (severity + interference scores) with the observations behind it, tracked against any prior score, and every pain signal routed to a veterinarian — never home-medicated

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

• The published CBPI form (freely available from the University of Pennsylvania)
• The dog observed over a normal day (stairs, rising, walks, play)
• Any prior CBPI score for trend
• A written note of all current medications, given or considered

Steps

1. 1. Observe the dog through a normal day before scoring: rising from rest, stairs, walk gait, willingness to play, behavior changes.
2. 2. Complete the CBPI pain-severity items (0-10 each) exactly as written on the instrument.
3. 3. Complete the CBPI pain-interference items (0-10 each) exactly as written.
4. 4. Record both subscale scores and the specific observed behaviors that informed them.
5. 5. Compare against the prior screen when one exists; record the trend.
6. 6. Confirm and record that no human or leftover medication was given for the signs.
7. 7. Route per the decision rules and set the recheck date.

What counts as done

• CBPI pain-severity and pain-interference scores recorded with the specific observed behaviors behind them
• Comparison to the prior screen recorded when one exists (trend, not diagnosis)
• Any elevated score, limp, or behavior change routed to a veterinarian by name or clinic type, with a low-cost option (e.g. PAWS Philadelphia's wellness clinic) named when cost is a barrier
• Confirmation recorded that NO human or leftover medication was given

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
