Vet Tech To Go

Vet Tech To Go Helping you and your veterinarian provide the very best care for your best friends. Well now you can! VET TECH TO GO!

My name is Lindsay and I was born with a great love for all creatures great and small. I thought I wanted to be a veterinarian until I realized that veterinary technicians get to do all of the "fun stuff"! After 3 years of walking dogs and house-sitting in my hometown of Chicago, IL, I moved halfway across the country to Denver, CO to attend the Bel-Rea Institute of Veterinary Technology. My futur

e husband and I moved back to his hometown of Pensacola 12 years ago and since then I've worked at several local clinics, including a 4 year stint at the Veterinary Emergency Referral Center where I was the Cardiology Technician. I also spent a few months at the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine working with the Cardiology Service there. Most recently I earned my Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner certification through the University of Tennessee's College of Veterinary Medicine and spent 3 years managing the Animal Rehab & Wellness Center in Pace. My desire to do not only what is necessary but what is possible to help pets and their people, and the high standard of care to which I hold myself has spurred me on to open my own business. I am NOT a veterinarian and I will not diagnose, prognose, prescribe, or perform medical procedures. What I CAN do, is act under your veterinarian's indirect supervision to help you help your pet feel their best. I have heard so many people say over the years, "Gosh I wish I could take you home so you could help me with my pet."

So true!

I can relate, this is how I felt when I found out I could get a degree in veterinary technology!

One thing I have really appreciated about my career is that I've been able to get to know a lot of different breeds (and species). I grew up with 2 beloved mutts as pets, and my pure bred experience the first 26 years of my life prior to becoming a certified veterinary technician was mostly limited to a friend's Schnauzer, a neighbor's miniature Poodle, a Springer Spaniel who detested me, and a boisterous yellow Lab who chipped my front tooth with his giant melon jumping up to greet me 🤣

*There were actually several lovely Labradors along the way - pic in comments*

Nowadays, I happily hang with a lot of Dachshunds and Labs (and Boxers and GSDs and...) in my rehab work, but back in my cardiology days, I had the great pleasure to get to know a number of memorable Doberman Pinschers. These dogs are really amazing, and Dharma is no exception! She is the SWEETEST girl!

Here we are sharing a post-bath cuddle while I was drying her off. Her mom isn't able to give her the baths she needs for her skin anymore so I get to help, and I'm always excited to get that text 🚿🐶❤️

This morning I got to meet 16 year old Pearl, who some of you may know as the namesake of Miss Pearl's Bed and Biscuit!

She has had a couple of neurologic events recently that have left her a little wobbly, so we worked on her strength and balance.

Every time I set something up, she'd do the exercise before I showed her what to do, like she had done it all her life. Nothing phased her, I was impressed!

I have found that older pets seem to enjoy learning to do new things and experiencing the wonders of different massage techniques. They also enjoy treats and applause!

Good job, Miss Pearl! I hope you had a nice nap after!

My sweet friend Cory won his battle against Degenerative Myelopathy (ALS) yesterday 🌈 Since he was referred to me for physical rehabilitation after his diagnosis almost 3 years ago, I made 127 weekly trips to visit him. Most dogs live 6-8 months after a DM diagnosis. Cory fought harder to be here than any doggie I have ever known, and I will miss him terribly. This is a snippet of our time together. Sending love to his momma, who fought just as hard as he did ❤️ I know he's up there chasing squirrels.

When the weekend arrives, greet it like a dachshund would...

I spent a fun morning releasing two different doggies for their owners in a local Fast CAT event, where dogs chase a lure for 100 yards. The bigger dogs can sprint at speeds of 25-30 mph! I have spent the last 10+ years working with dogs who have a variety of mobility issues, so to see them in their physical prime is kind of a treat for me, and always leaves me awestruck. This is Drax, a Dutch Shepherd, chasing the "bunny" and running to his mom as fast as he can.
