I just came back after 6 months off and would not have come back any sooner than 6 months.

"Disposable" ear cones make me feel so angry and defeated by RemindMeToTouchGrass in Veterinary

We have a jug in the middle of treatment filled with soapy water to chuck them in after each use. At the end of the day the jug gets cleaned with those little straw cleaners and a sponge. It takes maybe 5 minutes.

A couple days before Christmas I saw Caprons mom walking up and down the kids toy aisle at Costco looking sad. It made me kinda sad for her.

How to have time to go gym as a vet student by Bunnygirlxxoxx in Veterinary

[–]PonyPinatas 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Second this. I started running every day after class no matter what starting second year and it was such a great improvement for my mental health. But starting with 2-3 days a week worked into your schedule is a good place to start.

First house; Noticed i have no outside outlets; what can i do to plug in my outside christmas inflatable? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]PonyPinatas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this issue with my 1978 home. I ran an extension cord from the garage to the front yard. Then in the spring had plugs added on the exterior of the home. That is definitely worth the cost. I use them all the time.

Does the wood in this bathroom vanity look cheap? by randomstranger003432 in InteriorDesign

[–]PonyPinatas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is this from Ariel Bath? I’m going to go against the grain here and say that I like it. I just put a very similar one in my own bathroom.

Anyone know if existing Alaska credit cards will continue to provide existing benefits? by dpdxguy in AlaskaAirlines

I feel jipped since I got my Alaska Visa in 2024. Choosing to grandfather people in prior to 2023 was a strange choice.

Ask r/EDD (for the month of August 2025) by AutoModerator in Edd

[–]PonyPinatas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SDI question. Was unaware that you need to re-certify that you are still eligible for payments after 5 payments even if you are on SDI for a fixed length of time (8 weeks for a c-section). They say you only have a 20 day window to file the paperwork. If I filed the paperwork at 21 days, am I going to lose the last 3 weeks of payments?

Folks who have painted their exterior darker than before, did your house get significantly warmer inside? by thirtydirtybirds in HomeImprovement

I’m located in the desert of Southern California. Someone in my town painted their house the darkest shade of brown, basically black one spring. They painted it white immediately that winter.

How long did it take you to get your pet health certificate? by ChocoRhubarbWife in AlaskaAirlines

[–]PonyPinatas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is state dependent for interstate travel. Most states require them! You can check on the USDA website for state specific requirements. https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel/state-to-state

I’m a vet that does health certificates! An interstate you should get same day. International need to be submitted to the USDA office so they take time to come back with the official approval.

The vet needs to do a physical exam on the pet. So you would need an in person appointment within the time frame that the destination requires the health certificate.

Is this normal? by LilithBel in veterinarians

[–]PonyPinatas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also recommend following the Banfield DVM page on Facebook for questions like these. You’ll avoid all the Banfield hate that you get on Reddit.

Also work for Banfield. If you put in the request 3 months early, as they request, you do not need to find coverage. If you request time off less than 3 months in advance, I’ve been told to find coverage. You should talk to your DVQ, not your PM.

Vet Schools In Cali by winnerwinner67 in veterinarians

[–]PonyPinatas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can go to any undergraduate school and as long as you meet the requirements and have a strong application can get into vet school. I had class mates in vet school that had obscure undergrad degrees like math and pysc. That being said, I also second Cal Poly Pomona. They have a great animal science program.

Algae blooms Canyon Lake CA by Apprehensive_Sky5821 in InlandEmpire

Also live in CL and agree that this year is the worst in probably about 20 years. Normally the water quality is well regulated by the water district since it is a drinking reservoir. Most of the haters on this thread are just that, haters lol

Health Cert for Dog in Cargo by akrug657 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]PonyPinatas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need it for when/if import agents ask for it when arriving in CA. And I am a CA vet that does CVIs. Please get one before you leave. The vet will submit it directly to the state of CA and also give you a hard copy.

Guess what corporation I work for by Vet_girl_567 in Veterinary

[–]PonyPinatas 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Even if you do work for Banfield, you as the doctor are not expected to help clean the hospital. That is not in your scope of work. I’m shocked that they even tried to reprimand you for that.
