What an excellently written post! I couldn't agree with you more. That would make excellent reading posted in any vet's waiting room. Of course you would have to shorten it and maybe list the points (A, B, C, etc.) It might serve to enlighten those people who only visit their vet when their animal develops a medical problem. As much as I love animals and would love to be around them 8 hrs. a day, I think some of the things that you see on a daily basis would probably be too hard for me to be a good fit for such a job. Bless you for caring.
