Dr. Burns and I took some time out over the weekend to see Marley and Me, which hit theaters over the holidays. I enjoyed reading the book shortly after its debut, but hadn’t intended to see the big-screen adaptation until after it was released on DVD.

Dr. Burns and I spent a lazy morning hanging around the house and listening to NPR’s morning programming on New Year’s Day.

A recent post on the Veterinary Information Network (VIN, the world’s first and largest online community for vets) “Humor in Veterinary Medicine” message boards led me to this fun site, produced by Merial, a manufacturer of veterinary pharmaceuticals.

As you’ve heard, Lessons Learned from Dogs was a great success. The scrapbook Dr. Burns created, however, is currently devoid of pictures! While she enjoys scrapping about our pets, we thought it would be fun to ask all of you to contribute photos so we can create a book that everyone can share at the hospital. The format of [...]

OK folks, it’s time for a feline wake-up call. Not like the mewing, purring, and cold nose in the ear that Drs. B and G get every morning ten minutes before the alarm goes off, but a mental wake-up call. I’m tired of the human-canine-centric tone this blog has taken on, and I’m spending a [...]
