For full prescribing information call 1-888-545-5973 or visit http://www.elancolabels.com/us/zenrelia WARNING: VACCINE-INDUCED DISEASE AND INADEQUATE IMMUNE RESPONSE TO VACCINES. Based on results of the vaccine response study, dogs receiving Zenrelia are at risk of fatal vaccine-induced disease from modified live virus vaccines and inadequate immune response to any vaccine. Discontinue Zenrelia for at least 28 days to 3 months prior to vaccination and withhold Zenrelia for at least 28 days after vaccination. Dogs should be up to date on vaccinations prior to starting Zenrelia. Do not use in dogs less than 12 months old or dogs with a serious infection. Monitor dogs for infections because Zenrelia may increase susceptibility to opportunistic infections. Neoplastic conditions (benign and malignant) were observed during clinical studies. Consider the risks and benefits of treatment in dogs with a history of recurrence of these conditions. The most common adverse reactions were vomiting, diarrhea and lethargy. Zenrelia has not been evaluated in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs and concurrent use with glucocorticoids, cyclosporine, or other systemic immunosuppressive agents has not been tested. For full prescribing information see package insert.

Send us a textVeterinary care isn't one-size-fits-all. While “spectrum of care” has become a growing conversation in vet med, Dr. Kristin Jankowski, VMD, CCRP encourages us to think of it as contextualized care, care that adapts to the needs of the patient, the family, and the situation at hand.In this episode of Vet Life Reimagined, Dr. Jankowski shares her perspective from years in general practice, academia, and community health. Dr. Jankowski didn't tire of being a general practitioner because she was an active learner and found many ways to make an impact for her patients, clients, and community. She's the founder of One Health Delaware, a program that connects human and animal health providers to serve families more holistically, and she's also a leader in the AAVMC's Spectrum of Care Initiative.We talk about how contextualized care reframes the conversation and the exciting ways One Health and the spectrum of care can work together to improve outcomes for people and animals alike.Resources:Episode on YouTubeDr. Jankowski's publication on One Health Delaware AAVMC's Spectrum of Care Initiative Open Door Veterinary Collective

In this episode of the VetFolio Voice podcast, we sit down with Ron Sosa, Executive Director of the Uncharted Veterinary Conference and founder of Syn-APT Neuroinclusive Leadership, to explore what it means to lead with inclusion in mind, especially when supporting neurodivergent professionals in veterinary medicine. Ron shares personal insights and practical strategies for recognizing traits, such as justice sensitivity, executive dysfunction and rejection sensitive dysphoria, not just as shortcomings but also as signals that call for empathy and adaptation. We dive deep into the concept of masking, how neurodivergence is often misunderstood or mislabeled as "toxic," and why embracing difference isn't just kind but it's also essential to the future of veterinary leadership. Whether you're neurodivergent, managing someone who is or simply curious about creating more psychologically safe workplaces, this conversation offers tools, frameworks and a refreshing new lens on what it means to lead well in VetMed.

Commitment is essential for our work, our purpose, and for taking care of ourselves.  Commitments are intentional choices that we make to keep showing up, even when it gets difficult, or when our feelings start to change.  We have a commitment to animal welfare, lifelong learning, and to ourselves.  This commitment must be honored in order to build our best life.  We may not always feel good about our day, but our commitment to our profession and our mental health is what makes it all worthwhile.   Contact Julie at theveterinarylifecoach.com Buy Julie's book on Amazon - Love Your Veterinary Life - The Veterinary Life Coach Guide to Harnessing Your Mind and Building and Incredible Life

Being a veterinarian is about caring for animals… right? Increasingly, many vets feel their role is shifting toward being a therapist for pet owners, and it's taking a toll. In this episode of The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, explore the growing emotional labor demands placed on veterinary professionals. From helping clients navigate grief, guilt, and financial stress, to managing unrealistic expectations fueled by social media, veterinarians are spending more and more time counseling pet owners instead of focusing exclusively on clinical care. Dr. Ward reflects on the hidden burnout risk of constant emotional support, while Beckie shares how technicians also shoulder the weight of client emotions, often without formal training or resources. They discuss whether veterinary schools and practices are adequately preparing teams for this counseling role, the blurred boundaries between empathy and overextension, and how this shift impacts mental health, job satisfaction, and retention. Most importantly, they offer strategies for setting healthy boundaries while still delivering compassionate and effective care. If you've ever felt more like a life coach than a clinician—or wondered why today's veterinary job feels so emotionally heavy—this episode will resonate.
