Your pet can’t tell you when something feels “a little off.” Some health changes are subtle enough that you may not even notice them at home. That’s why an annual wellness exam is about more than a quick once-over.

Your veterinarian is checking for early changes, establishing what’s normal for your pet, and looking for opportunities to prevent problems before they become bigger ones.

Preventive care helps us stay one step ahead.

When was your pet’s last wellness exam? Here’s your friendly reminder to check in with your vet.

It’s Veterinary Technician Week, and we’re giving the mic to the people who do so much for pets every single day.

We asked credentialed veterinary technicians to finish one sentence:
💬 “The one thing I wish every pet parent knew was…”

A theme came through loud and clear: there’s so much more to being a credentialed veterinary technician than many pet parents realize.

RVTs and LVTs are educated, trained and credentialed veterinary professionals whose skills touch nearly every part of a pet’s care from monitoring anesthesia and assisting with procedures to collecting samples, performing diagnostic testing, providing nursing care, educating pet parents and advocating for their patients.

Swipe through to hear directly from some veterinary technicians you may recognize from social media! ➡️

And this Veterinary Technician Week, we’re celebrating the knowledge, skill, compassion and dedication these professionals bring to veterinary medicine every day.

To all the RVTs, LVTs and credentialed veterinary technicians out there: thank you for everything you do for pets, their people and your veterinary teams!

This week, we’re celebrating the Registered Veterinary Technicians (RVTs) who do it all!
They comfort nervous patients, monitor anesthesia, run lab work, take radiographs, assist in surgery, administer medications, educate pet parents, advocate for their patients, and that’s only the beginning.

Registered Veterinary Technicians bring an incredible combination of knowledge, technical skill, compassion and dedication to veterinary medicine, and so much of what they do happens behind the scenes. In North Carolina, it’s a term that can only be used by someone who has gone through the classwork, training and passed a national exam (and then maintain their education).

For Veterinary Technician Week, we’re shining a well-deserved spotlight on the many roles these professionals take on every day, along with the veterinary assistants and staff who help keep the office running!

Swipe through for just a glimpse of everything an RVT does. ➡️

To the veterinary technicians who care for our pets, support their people and keep veterinary teams moving: thank you for all that you do. We see you, we appreciate you, and we’re so glad to celebrate you this week!

Know an amazing RVT? Tag them in the comments and help us give them the recognition they deserve this Veterinary Technician Week!

October is Adopt-a-Shelter Dog Month and Adopt-a-Dog Month, a reminder that a new home is just the beginning.

From preventive care and nutrition to behavior and a smooth transition home, veterinary care can help set your new dog up for a happy, healthy start.

That first veterinary visit matters. It’s an opportunity to establish a health baseline, review vaccination and parasite-prevention needs, confirm microchip information, and discuss any questions or concerns as your new dog settles in.

A healthy new chapter starts with a strong foundation!

Save this checklist for your next adoption, and share it with someone getting ready to welcome a new pet.

Join us for practical veterinary CE, meaningful connections, and fresh perspectives you can take back to your team and your patients.

What if CE was more than a checkbox?

Continuing education can be more than something you complete to keep your license current.

✅ It can be the question you’ve been curious about.
✅ The skill you’ve been wanting to sharpen.
✅ The new idea you bring back to your team.
✅ The knowledge that changes how you approach the next case.

When CE moves beyond the checkbox, it can move veterinary medicine forward too.
Looking for your next opportunity to learn? NCVC 2026 is coming to Raleigh November 6–8, with CE across a wide range of veterinary interests and specialties.

In vet med, prevention is part of what we do every day. That same mindset should extend to the people doing the work.

Mental health support shouldn’t begin at a breaking point. It starts earlier with noticing changes, checking in, creating psychologically safe teams, respecting boundaries, addressing unsustainable workloads, and making it easier to ask for help.

The recent loss of a new veterinarian is a heartbreaking reminder of why these conversations matter. We won’t speculate about the circumstances surrounding any individual’s death. We can, however, continue asking what we can do as colleagues, leaders, and a profession to better support one another.

Early signs deserve early support.
Check in.
Make space.
Listen.

Remind the people around you that asking for help is never a professional failure.

If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. Veterinary professionals can also find peer support through Not One More Vet (NOMV), NC Professionals Health Program, Veterinary Hope Foundation, and Vets4Vets.

Veterinary medicine reaches far beyond the exam room. Veterinarians are advocates for animal health by protecting an animal’s well-being, strengthening the human-animal bond, sharing knowledge, expanding access to care, and being a voice for animals.

This World Animal Day, we’re celebrating the many ways veterinarians advocate for animals every day, from the exam room to their communities and beyond.

Advocating for animal health means helping create a healthier, better future for every animal.
Tag a veterinarian who goes above and beyond for animals and let them know their work makes a difference!
