The Dog Gone Positive Way
How Can You Help Your Veterinarian & Staff With Compassion Fatigue?

The Dog Gone Positive Way

Compassion Care for Those Who Care for Our PetsIn this emotional episode of The Dog Gone Positive Way, I continue my conversation with Adam Spencer, CFRE, founder of Furlanthropy, to confront one of the most common crises in veterinary medicine today: Compassion Fatigue. The life-saving care and the emotional support veterinarians, veterinarian technicians, assistants, and front desk staff give their clients takes a toll. Veterinarians are 2-3 times more likely to die by suicide as compared to other professionals.  We go to a veterinary office with a healthy pet for a routine checkup, or our pet in crisis who needs immediate care. In those moments, we expect compassion, understanding, and expertise—for our pets and for ourselves. But how often do we stop to think about what the people on the other side of the exam table are carrying? Veterinarians, technicians, assistants, front desk, and other staff work in a profession rooted in love and empathy. Yet it comes with an emotional cost few of us fully see. Compassion fatigue, burnout, moral distress, long hours, and repeated exposure to grief take a profound toll.When we are in crisis with our pets, it can be nearly impossible to hold space for anything else. But consider this: the veterinarian standing in front of you may have just walked out of the exam room next door after euthanizing another family's pet—perhaps one they've known since puppyhood or kittenhood. And now, they must take a breath, steady themselves, and walk into your room offering calm, care, and compassion all over again.That emotional whiplash happens multiple times a day.What Is Compassion Fatigue?Compassion fatigue is the emotional and physical exhaustion that comes from prolonged caregiving and repeated exposure to trauma and grief. It doesn't mean a lack of caring—it means too much caring for too long without enough support.How Can We Help Our Veterinarians and Their Staff?Small acts matter more than we realize:• Practice patience. Delays, tough news, or difficult conversations aren't personal—they're often the result of someone else's emergency or loss.• Use kind language. Stressful moments can escalate quickly. A calm tone and respectful words can make a world of difference.• Say thank you—and mean it. A genuine “I appreciate what you do” carries weight.• Leave positive reviews. These help morale more than you might imagine, especially after difficult days.• Support fair care. Veterinary teams want to help every animal, but they face financial, ethical, and emotional limits.• Acknowledge their humanity. They are professionals—but they are also people who grieve, love, and hurt.If you've ever felt supported, comforted, or guided through one of the hardest moments of pet ownership, that care came at a cost to someone who chose this profession out of love.Mental Health Resources for Veterinarians & Veterinary StaffIf you are a veterinarian, technician, or staff member—or you love someone who is—support is available:• Not One More Vet (NOMV)NOMV Created by Dr. Nicole MacArthur October 1, 2014, following the suicide of world-renowned veterinary behaviorist Dr. Sophia Yin. • AVMA Wellbeing & Peer Support ResourcesThe American Veterinary Medical Association provides mental health tools, wellness education, & confidential peer assistance.https://www.avma.org/resources-tools/wellbeing• 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (U.S.)Call or text 988 for immediate, confidential support—24/7.International:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_suicide_crisis_lines• Local Veterinary Peer Support GroupsMany state and regional veterinary associations offer confidential peer-to-peer programs.Asking for help is not a weakness.

This week, the Veterinary Viewfinder keeps a beloved tradition alive with a festive gift for the profession. Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, share a brand-new veterinary rendition of T'was the Night Before Christmas, written for every veterinarian, technician, assistant, CSR, kennel team member, and manager working through the holidays. The poem walks listeners through a Christmas Eve shift full of familiar chaos, unexpected cases, and the kind of humor that only happens in a clinic on a busy night. You'll hear nods to the species you treat, the equipment that never seems to cooperate, and the teamwork that holds the whole place together. Most importantly, the episode offers a moment of gratitude for everyone who shows up for patients and families during a season that can be joyful and exhausting at the same time. If your clinic is open this week, or if you've ever spent a holiday in scrubs, this episode is meant to bring a smile, a sense of recognition, and a little warmth at the end of a long year. Merry Christmas from the Viewfinder family to yours. #VeterinaryViewfinder #VetMed #VetTechLife #VeterinaryPodcast #HolidayShift #ChristmasInVetMed #VetClinicLife #SantaPaws #TwasTheNightBeforeChristmas #VetTeamStrong

Veterinary teams everywhere are feeling the strain of rising no-show appointments, especially during the hectic holiday season. This episode examines why veterinary clients are ghosting more frequently and what that means for clinic schedules, revenue, and staff morale. Hosts Dr. Ernie Ward and Becky Mossor, MPA, RVT, walk through the real drivers behind no-show appointments, including financial stress, price shopping, long wait times, and the comfort some clients feel in canceling silently rather than calling the clinic. What makes this conversation useful is its practicality. The episode covers the pros and cons of appointment deposits, how to identify chronic no-show patterns, and when to adjust scheduling habits. You'll also hear how technology can reduce missed appointments, from “safe exit” text confirmations to automated pre-visit questionnaires, and why these small tools often change client behavior in a meaningful way. For teams balancing compassion with realistic clinic operations, this episode offers a grounded look at how to protect time, maintain revenue, and reduce frustration without creating unnecessary barriers for clients. It's an honest, solutions-focused discussion aimed at helping veterinary professionals manage one of the industry's quieter but most persistent challenges. #veterinaryviewfinder #veterinarypodcast #vetmed #vetteam #vetlife #veterinarian #vettech #vetclinic #veterinarypractice #clientcommunication #noappointment #noshowrate #veterinarymanagement #clinicworkflow #holidayseasonvet #vetstaffsupport #veterinarybusiness #practiceowner #petcareprofessionals #veterinaryissues #ghostingclients #appointmentmanagement #vetreceptionists #veterinaryleaders #vettechlife

In this episode of The Moos Room, Brad dives into a landmark new study examining the effects of short- and long-distance transport on the health, survival, and growth of pre-weaned dairy and dairy–beef crossbred calves. Drawing on data from nearly 392,000 calves across multiple farms and transport durations (ranging from 30 minutes to 24 hours), the study challenges common assumptions about calf transport. Surprisingly, mortality upon arrival was extremely low and unaffected by transport length. Differences in mortality by weaning (60 days) were also modest and, importantly, were driven far more by early-life factors than by time spent on the truck.The discussion highlights colostrum management as the single most critical factor influencing calf outcomes. Calves fed two colostrum meals had higher serum protein levels, significantly lower rates of failure of passive transfer, and were about 50% less likely to develop diarrhea—one of the leading causes of pre-weaning mortality. Other key drivers of calf survival included diarrhea, pneumonia, dam parity, gestation length, and birth season, with transport duration explaining relatively little of the variation in outcomes. Brad emphasizes that a calf's “destiny is largely sealed before the wheels start rolling,” underscoring that management decisions made at birth—especially colostrum feeding, dam health, and environmental stress mitigation—matter far more than transport distance alone.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

This week on The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, ask a timely question many teams are quietly wondering: Are veterinary clients meaner this year? As the 2025 holiday rush collides with rising costs, canceled insurance policies, and shifting social norms, many clinics are experiencing increased client frustration and emotional volatility. From Dr. Ward fielding complaints about the weather-soaked Calabash Christmas Parade to everyday price-related outbursts in vet clinics, across the country, Ernie and Beckie explore why tensions feel higher and what veterinary teams can do to stay grounded. The hosts break down the layered pressures behind client behavior: inflation hitting veterinary services harder than many other sectors, pet owners stretched thin by holiday-season spending, and a rise in sticker-shock rage. They discuss how front-desk teams absorb the brunt of accumulated hostility, why “just apologize” may be an outdated client service model, and how social media culture has made some clients eager to catch veterinary teams “messing up” on camera. Most importantly, Ernie and Beckie outline practical strategies clinics can use now, before the holiday surge peaks, to reduce conflict, empower staff, and protect well-being. From setting boundaries to validating emotions without absorbing them, this episode helps veterinary professionals enter the season with clarity, confidence, and compassion. #VeterinaryViewfinder #VetPodcast #VetMed #VeterinaryProfession #VetLife #VetProblems #ClientCommunication #VetTeam #AnimalCare #CompassionFatigue #WorkplaceWellbeing #VeterinaryCommunity #PracticeManagement #FrontDeskLife #MeanClients #ToughConversations #VeterinarySupport #VetTechLife #VetClinicLife #VeterinaryStaff #VetMedicine #PetCareProfessionals #VetTalk #BehindTheClinic #VeterinaryViewfinderPodcast

In today's VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we review a recent paper by Rogg et al titled “Frequency and Progression of Azotemia During Acute and Chronic Treatment of Congestive Heart Failure in Cats,” which was published in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine in 2025. After all, many of us are taught that we are “between a rock and a hard place” when it comes to ailing hearts and kidneys. We've always been taught not to give too much furosemide to cats in congestive heart failure (CHF), right? Not only are we worried about shriveling up the cats and their pre-load, but we're worried about shriveling up their kidneys too! Tune in to find out more!

In this episode, Brad and Emily welcome a special guest: Dr. Angie Varnum, the University of Minnesota Extension's new livestock veterinarian. After some banter about Minnesota winters—and a classic round of The Moos Room's “super-secret” cattle breed questions—the crew dives into Angie's unique path to Extension.Angie shares how she went from growing up in suburban Maple Grove to studying Spanish education, teaching in schools, and eventually being inspired to pursue veterinary medicine. Her training and work took her across the western U.S., where she gained experience in beef and dairy systems before returning to Minnesota to practice large-animal medicine. Her love for both animals and education ultimately led her to Extension.The conversation explores:How Angie's Spanish language background shapes her work and the opportunities it creates for better outreach and training with Spanish-speaking livestock employees.Current and emerging livestock health concerns, and the importance of distinguishing real risks from media frenzy—while still preparing producers with good information.The evolving role of veterinarians in dairy and beef systems, from herd health and data-driven decision-making to the value of strong producer–vet relationships.Animal behavior and welfare science, an area Angie is especially passionate about integrating into herd health discussions.Angie also highlights upcoming Extension programs she'll be involved in, including the new Artificial Insemination School, Beef Quality Assurance certification sessions, Cow/Calf Days, and several small ruminant programs—from webinars to hands-on lambing and kidding workshops.It's a fun, thoughtful conversation introducing a new member of the Extension livestock team and setting the stage for exciting work ahead.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

What does antimicrobial resistance look like when your patients range from dogs and cats to cattle, wildlife, and everything in between? And how do we make sense of AST, breakpoints, contamination, and genotypic tools across such a diverse microbiological world? In this episode, Luis is joined by Dr. Kelli Maddock, DrPH (North Dakota State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory) and Dr. Stephen Cole (University of Pennsylvania), two leaders shaping the future of veterinary microbiology, antimicrobial stewardship, and CLSI veterinary standards. Together, they explore AMR and AST through a true One Health lens, showing how animal, human, and environmental health are interconnected in everyday diagnostic work. Drawing from their recent American Journal of Veterinary Research article on AMR challenges in veterinary medicine, the discussion highlights: The biggest challenges in veterinary AST, from species diversity to contamination Phenotypic vs genotypic testing and concerns around WGS-based "treatment predictions" How selective reporting ("nudging") strengthens antimicrobial stewardship Why every animal result matters in a One Health framework Whether you come from human or veterinary microbiology, this episode reveals the shared challenges across sectors — and the diagnostic, collaborative, and educational steps needed to strengthen AMR response in a One Health world.

Send me a question or story!Solar dermatitis (actinic keratosis) is skin damage from prolonged UV exposure, affecting both dogs and cats, particularly those with light-colored or thin coats. So, pets that have white fur and live in high UV exposure areas (like the southern US) are predisposed. Symptoms include redness, scaling, hair loss, and thickened, crusty skin. Commonly affected areas include the nose, ears, abdomen, and inner thighs. This condition can lead to more severe issues, including pre-cancerous lesions and aggressive skin cancer like squamous cell carcinoma. We will discuss ways to identify this disease and treatment options such as CO2 laser ablation, etc.00:00 – Intro04:06 – Nasal Solar Dermatitis06:32 – Classic Canine Solar Dermatitis08:15 – Treatment Options for Solar Dermatitis16:52 – Outro

In this solo episode of The Moos Room, Brad dives into a deep, honest look at production challenges in the University of Minnesota dairy herd and the nutrition and management factors that may be holding cows back. After noticing low udder fill during classification and reviewing herd data, Brad confirms a troubling trend: cows across all lactations are producing 20–30% less milk than predicted. Early-lactation health issues—ketosis, metritis, and retained placentas—are also more common than they should be, especially in first-lactation animals.A recent visit from an outside nutrition team helped uncover several key issues contributing to poor performance. Brad walks listeners through what those “fresh eyes” found across young stock, calves, dry cows, and both the organic and conventional lactating herds. From overconditioned heifers to transition problems at weaning, ration inconsistencies, possible ingredient imbalances, and major concerns with hammer-mill screen size causing undigested corn to pass straight through cows—each discovery points to opportunities for improvement.The conversation also highlights the importance of forage management, including the need for a silage facer, better bunk management, and a long-overdue TMR audit to evaluate mixing order, load prep, refusals, shrink, and ration consistency.Throughout the episode, Brad emphasizes transparency and the value of bringing in additional perspectives. Even well-managed dairies can develop blind spots, and small issues add up fast when milk is left on the table. He outlines the farm's next steps and promises future updates as changes are implemented.If you're interested in nutrition, transition cow health, TMR audits, or practical herd-level troubleshooting, this episode is a real-world case study in identifying problems and planning for better performance.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

This week on The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, slow down the holiday rush to talk about something deceptively simple and surprisingly powerful: gratitude. As Thanksgiving arrives, many practice owners and managers are asking the same question: What do I do for my staff this year? Yet the podcast reveals a deeper conversation about why traditional gestures, pizza parties, gift cards, and generic thank-yous often fall flat. Beckie shares that “pizza parties are cliché these days.” Ernie and Beckie break down why authentic appreciation requires more than convenience. They explore the concept of “gratitude love languages,” encouraging leaders to notice how individual team members naturally give and receive appreciation. Through real examples, from celebrating a shy kennel assistant in a way that made her light up, to publicly acknowledging an associate veterinarian's hard-won case success on social media, the hosts show how personalized recognition creates lasting impact. They also tackle the emerging phenomenon Ernie calls “the Great Detachment”. With fewer people job-hopping due to a tightening market, many veterinary professionals aren't quitting; they're disengaging. And meaningful gratitude, autonomy, and inclusion may be the antidote. This episode is a warm, insightful Thanksgiving conversation packed with practical retention strategies, leadership reminders, and heartfelt appreciation for the people who keep veterinary medicine running, especially through the holidays. #VeterinaryViewfinder #VetMed #VetLife #VeterinaryTeam #VetProfessionals #VetTechLife #VetLeaders #PracticeManagement #TeamCulture #StaffAppreciation #GratitudeInVetMed #HolidaySeasonVetMed #VeterinaryPodcast
