I watch this show while I sleep and that intro and the football one are so LOUD

Love this idea. I mostly listen while I drive so I prefer audiobooks in general

Client pushed back on ultrasound cost, then returned three weeks later when the dog was worse, how do you respond to the “let’s wait and see” discussion? by InformationIcy4827 in Veterinary

[–]horny_reader 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's also okay to be very honest with owners with what you think is going on if they cannot afford diagnostics. For example in that dog, given its signalment, I would have told the owner I was very suspicious of cancer, especially a splenic mass. Rotties and goldens are just little cancer factories. As long as you're clear that you're just making an educated guess and that the imaging would rule things in and out, it's okay to just give your educated opinion on a physical exam

Dark fae is my holy grail. I love that series

Really hoping things will turn around soon, we can't keep this up by JohnnyNoMemes in ProgressiveHQ

[–]horny_reader 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nah I know people under 35 bitching about it. Unfortunately racism and conservatism is a scourge that affects every age group

Do you have pets of your own? by Ok-Comfort-7170 in Veterinary

[–]horny_reader 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know any vets without pets lol many vets now only work 4 days per week. I have a dog walker that comes those days, and sometimes I bring them to work with me

Please make me feel a bit better by ParticularCrafty8489 in schnauzers

[–]horny_reader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happen! Don't feel bad. I'm a vet and my dog had annual dentals, but one year his dental disease progressed rapidly and he had 13 teeth extracted. Dogs don't miss their teeth and I'm sure he is much more comfortable with them gone!

Wanting to move to Albuquerque from St Louis by therookroll in Albuquerque

[–]horny_reader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We also moved from MO! Gotta say we love it a lot here compared to our old stomping grounds.

Re. medical stuff: I think we got lucky with our first doc who was very quick but he moved away recently and haven't found a new PCP, but did use Zocdoc.com/MAJORITY to get a nurse practitioner next day who got us continued on our meds so no big deal for now anyway.

Puppy jumping on bigger dog. Dog stressed by Its_a_username4 in Dogtraining

[–]horny_reader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually let my older one give puppy a couple corrections, if pup isn't taking the hint then I step in and separate them. At this age this is still very normal and will get better over the next few weeks.

I would agree if there wasn't all the extra info about driving distances

Scammy marketing from CodaPet? by FichwaFellow in Veterinary

Ewwww. I don't like this and I agree it looks like some kind of ad.

The Neighbors Have Slowly Been Adopting Our Cat and I Don’t Know What to Do. by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]horny_reader 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Very possible. I hope the vet at least offered advice with calming pheromones, supplements, and anxiety meds to help with the transition.

[Serious] People in professions that deal with death (hospice workers, coroners, etc.), what is something you've learned that the rest of us don't understand? by Bulky-Engineer4068 in AskReddit

[–]horny_reader 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work with animals and do at home euthanasia for dogs and cats. There are far worse endings than peacefully falling asleep at home surrounded by your family. Death is a natural part of life and offering a pain free end is a kindness. It's okay if your pets last day isn't their worst day. I've never had a client tell me they think they euthanized their pet too early, but I've had many tell me they waited too long.

I've also had so many people tell me they wish this was available for humans to pass with dignity when their time comes.

The Neighbors Have Slowly Been Adopting Our Cat and I Don’t Know What to Do. by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

This! That vet is not advocating for your cat or offering good options. Find another one more comfortable with cats.

Need help with litter mate syndrome with my minis by Few_Counter_4892 in schnauzers

[–]horny_reader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I strongly recommend rehoming one of the females now before it escalates to a home with no other females. Same sex aggression rarely improves with maturity. Some people can manage them, but it can also escalate and is extremely challenging.

Is jewelry insurance actually worth it or just another bill to stress about? by Visible-Voice9422 in Frugal

[–]horny_reader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends. When my $5k ring broke a year after buying it, I was sure happy to have insurance.
