Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, everyone! I'm not much for new year resolutions but this year I'm making a couple, starting with committing to blogging on a weekly basis. As a full time licensed vet tech that loves her job, I want to share first hand experiences and tips that may benefit you the pet owner. Although some people may think that the veterinary industry is set out to collect as much money as possible, the reality is we got into this industry because we care about animal health, and less about the income. Proof is in the cost of school, human medicine vs. vet med, and the income we earn after graduation. If I wanted to maximize my profit I'd be better off giving botox injections then getting scratched and peed on for a fraction of the pay.

So here's my commitment to you the reader - one weekly post. If you have topics or cases such as "my dog is constantly licking his/her paws, is there anything over the counter I can do at home?", let me know and I'll be happy to offer you my medical advice. Note I can not legally diagnose or prescribe medications, but I can give you recommendations, tips and tricks :)
