Click here to text us your questions & comments. Sara and Gary get together for a chat after a 5 week gap between recordings. This episode gets everyone caught up with Sara's academic schedule. Basically lots of tests! They go into detail about Sara's recent Diagnostic Challenge week.

Learn abou...

The 2 episodes are pretty self-contained, but this is a continuation of the conversation we had and probably best to listen to the entire discussion from beginning to end. We cover Alabama Football, the experience of studying overseas in Ireland, pet loss, parenting styles and so much more. And yet it...

Click here to text us your questions & comments. Sara and I are together on this one to talk with the wonderful Dr. Whitney Terell ( @dr.terrellpetvet ). We talked so long, that we didn't even get close to wrapping this up in 1 episode. During this episode we mainly cover her passion for the Enneagram, and her experience applying to, getting in to, and attending Vet School in Dublin, Ireland. University College Dublin School of Veterinary Medicine is AVMA Accredited but it does not have a...

Click here to text us your questions & comments. Gary shares most of his summer activities. Not as exciting as Sara's. It gives a good perspective on his AVMA summer duties. Gary and Sara also talk about some unique aspects of the Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine second year curriculum. We apologize for a few technical difficulties. The audio is fine, but not the level we desire. We strive to improve this. We'd also like to once again thank Ready Vet ...

Click here to text us your questions & comments. Unfortunately Sara was unavailable for recording this week. Fortunately, Gary was able to secure an amazing guest while he was at the AAVMC Catalyze Conference in Washington DC. This week he interviews Dr. Laci Taylor a current Zoo Medicine Resident at The Smithsonian's National Zoo. Gary wanted so much to learn about all the exciting things that Dr. Taylor is doing during her Residency, but that will have to come another day. Before that c...

Click here to text us your questions & comments. This should probably be titled, "Wait... You did what?" episode. Or the "Gary seems shell-shocked". Gary is definitely not on his A-game here. It's probably because he had never met his amazing guest Nurse Practioner Lauren Cabrera before he hit the record button for his interview. It could have been because Sara wasn't present this time either. Sara was off the grid for spring break camping along the west coast somewhere (hopefully we'll h...
