A few recent patients from Purdue University Veterinary Hospital’s Oncology Service. 🐾

Whether visiting for a consultation, treatment or recheck, each patient has different needs, and our team works to make each visit as comfortable as possible.

Dog socialization doesn’t require greeting every dog.

Positive experiences can include play, calmly sharing space or observing another dog from a comfortable distance. Watch body language, give dogs space and avoid forcing interactions.

Three dogs sit together on grass and look up toward the camera. A brown-and-white dog is in the center, with a smaller mottled brown-and-white dog on the left and a black dog on the right. All three have relaxed, open mouths.

Synthetic nutrients DO NOT EQUAL REAL FOOD. Particularly when QUALITY OF LIFE is considered. 🤨

#vetmed has ALWAYS been ✴️for-profit✴️ healthcare. 🤷‍♀️😞 Its kindly Dr. Doolittle mask is just off now. My employers in the 90s & 00s weren't any better.

Caring for animals shouldn't be "a big part" of why people go into #vetmed. It should be the ✴️ENTIRE✴️ reason. 🤷‍♀️ The ✨ONLY✨ reason. And it should always be the ✴️TOP PRIORITY.✴️ Care first; "career" a distant second.

Purdue DVM student Cole Wilcox spent 23 days in The Gambia working alongside livestock professionals at WALIC, from rural livestock care in Bansang to surgical procedures and community livestock markets.

The experience was part of PVM’s global engagement opportunities.

👇Story of my entire #veterinary career.👇

#vetmed #support #staff have ALWAYS been viewed as utterly replaceable/disposable. 😞 #Management prefers working their unicorns to death, rather than #hiring enough #employees. 😡 It's like #burnout is their GOAL.

✴️& #PATIENT CARE IS WHAT SUFFERS THE MOST✴️

@yourotherfamilydr.bsky.social Oct 2, 2026, 3:01 PM

#Accuracy matters in #veterinarymedicine... yes, even when it comes to little #details like listing your hours on your #website.

🤨 Neglecting something as seemingly small as this can cost an #animal their life. 😞

FDA authorized Zoetis's Simparica Trio for emergency treatment of screwworm in dogs. The FDA's summary shows the drug worked mainly by expelling larvae, based on one small lab study.

This is ✨always✨ the exception to the rule "don't let the client restrain their own pet".😞 In this moment, "potential for getting sued" should NOT be your primary concern, Doctor. 🤨

We currently seem to have a whole generation of #vetmed workers who FOR SOME REASON, expected to always get out of work "on time". 🤷‍♀️ That's how I know they were ✴️woefully✴️ unprepared for the reality of the profession‼️ #veterinary #veterinarymedicine #veterinarians #vetsky #pets #animals #cats #dogs
