📣 Busting Pet Insurance Myths! 📣
Thinking about pet insurance but unsure? Let’s debunk some myths! 🐾
Myth 1: It's too expensive. Reality: It can save you money by covering unexpected vet bills. Plans fit different budgets.
Myth 2: Doesn't cover pre-existing conditions. Reality: While pre-existing conditions aren’t covered, insurance helps with many other health issues and accidents. Insure your pet while they're healthy for better coverage.
Myth 3: Only for sick or older pets. Reality: Insurance benefits pets of all ages. Start when they’re young and healthy for lifelong coverage.

I seriously do not know why these guys are not being inundated by my veterinary colleagues for advice. They've been instrumental in guiding me to a bright financial future and have helped my young associates navigate debt repayment opportunities. They wrote a book. Check it out.

It’s National Chocolate Day 🚫🍫 Chocolate & Pets: A Dangerous Combo! 🚫🐾
Did you know that chocolate can be toxic to our furry friends? 🐶🐱 Here's what you need to know to keep your pets safe:
1. Why Chocolate is Toxic: Chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine, which pets can't metabolize effectively. Dark and baking chocolates are the most dangerous.
2. Symptoms of Toxicity: Look out for vomiting, diarrhea, increased heart rate, restlessness, and excessive thirst. Severe cases can cause tremors or seizures.
3. Immediate Action: If your pet ingests chocolate, contact your vet right away! Quick action can save lives. 🏥
Keep those chocolate treats out of paw's reach! 🐾❤️

🌟 Realizing and re-realizing that my job as a veterinarian involves saving lives is such an incredible feeling. 🌟 Amid the day-to-day operations and the hustle of running the business, it's easy to lose sight of this. But Tuesday, we made a difference, and it reminded me why I do what I do. 🐾❤️

Every pet we help, every life we touch, is a reminder of the importance of our work. It's not just a job; it's a mission to ensure the health and happiness of our furry friends. Grateful for these moments that reignite my passion and dedication. 🙏✨

I originally had Dr. Molly Brinkman on to rebut Dr. Levine's visceral post accusing veterinarians as scammers. If you watch the videos that her and I created, you will see that we looked at aspects that can be addressed in a more positive light. His post was frankly mean and represented a perspective filled with holes. This video comes the closest to our anger and passion for the truth coming through.
