  • Holiday Time Off in Vet Med: Is Seniority Fair
    Oct 21 2026
    Should the person who’s been at the clinic longest always get first pick of holiday time off? This week on the Veterinary Viewfinder, veterinarian Dr. Ernie Ward and credentialed veterinary technician Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, tackle a familiar source of tension: deciding who works Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s. They weigh seniority, rotating holidays, lotteries, and shift swaps, including what happens when family plans change after the schedule is set. Ernie explains how his practice used seniority to resolve competing requests. Beckie questions what makes a system fair and whether holiday duties should fall only to certain staff members. There’s no perfect formula, but there are ways to make the process clearer and give teams more room to work things out. The discussion covers announcing clinic hours early, setting clear time-off policies, and considering relief coverage. They also explain why holiday boarding checks should involve at least two people and why veterinarians can share that responsibility. Whether you’re making the schedule or waiting on it, this episode offers practical questions to bring to your team before holiday requests become a last-minute scramble. #VetMed #VetTech #PracticeManagement #HolidayScheduling #VeterinaryViewfinder

  • WORLD PET OBESITY MONTH: WHAT YOUR VETERINARY TEAM CAN DO
    Oct 7 2026
    October is World Pet Obesity Month, and this episode covers what veterinary teams can do to help patients and clients better understand, prevent, and treat pet obesity. Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor break down APOP’s 2026 Veterinary Clinic Pet Obesity Prevalence Survey, including how clinics can participate, which patients to include, and why asking owners how they perceive their pet’s body condition is such an important part of the data. Qualifying licensed U.S. practices can receive a $50 staff-time stipend after submitting at least 15 complete, eligible records that pass APOP’s data review. APOP has also created extensive support materials to make participation easier, including clinic instructions, BCS charts, printable resources, ready-to-share social media graphics and captions, email and newsletter copy, and other outreach materials. Ernie and Beckie also explore the updated 2026 Pet Obesity Communication Guidelines and APOP’s growing collection of free clinical tools designed to help veterinary teams assess body condition, plan weight management, and have clearer, more respectful conversations with clients. Every score counts. Your clinic can help build the next snapshot of pet obesity in veterinary practice.
