I think the biggest problem I have is that pet owners will choose to listen to people like you about pet care instead of the hundreds of thousands of man hours of research behind veterinary medicine. I understand your message isn't meant to be one of ANTI VET but rather that of Anti BAD Vet. I fear most people see it as ANTI ALL VETS. I really think a new video would go along way with less scare tactics and more pertinent information. i.e. drop the "50% of vets graduated in the bottom half" line

I must say I'm a little disturbed by your video. I agree with what you say that people should be informed about their personal and their pet's health care but there are some inconsistencies with your statements. You tell people that they should be wary of Vets who use scare tactics about parasites. Understandable. However, aren't you using scare tactics about vets. Granted some of your scares are valid reasons, but my point is vets use these tactics similar, Because few people listen otherwise

In my tragic experience, any vet who recommends major surgery (splenectomy) on older pet, is extraordinarily dangerous---any vet who dispenses prednisone or rimadyl is a pharmaceutical criminal--any vet who doesn't tell you that annual vaccinations are needless for pet health, is a CROOK, any emergency vet who "prospects" pet for major surgery (for reason other than what pet was brought in for) is a GHOUL ready to KILL your pet to fund his/her bank account---PHARMACEUTICAL PROSTITUTES!!

I am a UK veterinarian and it may be different here to the US. However, I think it is important to get some balance before tagging vets as either good or bad.
No owner is bound to take a vet's advice and if you are not comfortable with that advice, or indeed any aspect of the vet's care, then TALK TO YOUR VET ABOUT YOUR CONCERNS before trailing off to find another, if need be.
The vast majority of vets wish to treat patients successfully and WITH the owner's trust and understanding.

This is exactly WHY I became an Animal Naturopath rather than a vet! Even though I've spent 20 years studying - I feel it was worth every minute. Information like this just reminds WHY it was.

What do you consider a good vet? Maybe a video on the topic?

2 of 2 FULL BRED IS INBRED!!!! and when you buy or adopt a fully bred animal you have already set yourself up for enormous veterinarian

1 of 2 ***** NOTE TO JAN *******I have been a Veterinarian Technician for 12 years and I have to say a few things.You mentioned animals with diabetes, cancer, skin issues and outdated methods of care right? did you happen to mention or even research the fact that most of these problems are due to the inbreeding of animals aka known as full bred and the geographical location in which these ailing animals reside?

Thanks K9.
I think we will do that today. I greatly appreciate your support & suggestions. As you probably know as a pet owner know how stressful this can be for us.
I believe my vet malpracticed my dog last night. He is profit driven.
My dog was brought in for breathing problems. But after seeing the vet & right after doing an x-ray my dog now cant move her rear leg.
Her condition has worsen considerably last night. I dont trust this vet. Now it seems we might have to put her down.

Jenfucius, if you can, get another opinion. Another vet may see things differently and give you dog a chance. I wish you the best of luck.
