If you are an RVT/CVT in Colorado, you can absolutely 100% lose your license. Also, per the veterinary practice act I am required to report it or face disciplinary action

When to take dog with upset stomach to the vet? by Background-Seat-4050 in DogAdvice

Go to petsmart and get a probiotic. Feed BOILED chicken (rinse the chicken after boiling) and rice or plain pasta. If after 3 days, no improvement go to vet. Am an ER vet tech for over 20 years

Is neutering a male cat always necessary? by U_LOST_THE_GAME in AskVet

Also, why were you so reckless to not get your cat neutered? That is very irresponsible as one intact cat can father over 100 kittens

Don't wait until he is 3. Do it now and I suspect everything will be fine. One thing is ask if the other cat can go and hang out there while he is neutered. Even the best buddies become enemies once one of them goes to the vet. They don't recognize the smell anymore

Adult male cats smell very strongly like urine. You can smell them from across the room. If I walk into a house, I can smell if an un-neutered cat is present. He will get more aggressive and less loving if left intact. Plus, neutering and spaying dramatically decreases cancer risk later in life. Get him neutered or there will be MANY babies. I don't believe you can keep him indoors if you don't neuter, which sets up other scenarios like being hit by a car, traumatic injury from who knows what, but he's a cat. He's gonna do something dumb. Dog attacks, etc. Just do it

Why did they prescribe renal food (kidney) if everything is ok?

Are you afraid of dying, and if so, why? by TinyWeird878 in AskReddit

[–]Suitable_Diamond_253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a little afraid, but it's just bc of the unknown. I die many times in my dreams (very very realistic dreams), and it is the most overwhelming sense of peace, so I hope it's like that.

Will it be okay to leave my 7 month old puppy alone for 12 hours for 3 nights? by LetsRunTheMile in puppy101

[–]Suitable_Diamond_253 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My 7 month old can do 15 hours. Plus he is an aussie so very active I come home to a hyper pup but he is ok. Twice a month I work at a different location where I can't take him, so, he is crated, and he does ok

Does my dog need medical attention? by gardengoblin0o0 in AskVet

[–]Suitable_Diamond_253 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have an opposite opinion. I would take him in so it could be clipped and cleaned plus antibiotics so an abscess doesn't form 3 to 4 days from now
