Veterinary reception is not “just answering phones.”

It is emotional triage.
It is operational control.
It is being kind when people are rude.
It is being precise when everything is moving at once.
And somehow still smiling through all of it.

That is not “just reception.”
That is skill.
That is labor.
That is intelligence.
That is leadership.

The Vet CSR exists because this role deserves to be seen clearly.

🌾🐾 **Foxtail Season is Here — Protect Your Pets!** 🐾🌾

Did you know that a tiny grass seed could cause **big trouble** for your dog or cat?

**Foxtails** are barbed w**d seeds that can burrow into your pet’s skin, ears, eyes, nose—even lungs! Once inside, they don’t stop moving and can cause **painful infections**, abscesses, or even life-threatening complications.

🚨 **Watch for these signs: **
🔹 Excessive sneezing or head shaking
🔹 Swollen or draining wounds
🔹 Limping or constant paw licking
🔹 Sudden squinting or eye discharge

✅ **What you can do:**
✔ Avoid tall dry grasses on walks
✔ Check your pet daily—especially paws, mouth, ears, eyes, and nose
✔ Keep fur trimmed, especially on long-haired pets
✔ See your vet ASAP if you suspect a foxtail!

🩺 **When in doubt, check it out!** Foxtails are more than a nuisance—they’re a potential emergency. Early detection can save your pet from serious harm.

📸 Share to spread awareness and help keep all our furry friends safe this season!
