April Fool's

This April Fool’s episode takes a real-time look at the veterinary industry after Q1 2026. The group discusses steady but plateauing financial performance, growing capacity limits due to doctor shortages, and the ongoing challenge of workforce distribution—especially in rural and mixed animal practices. While demand for care remains strong, practices are feeling the strain of staffing gaps, rising costs, and operational inefficiencies. Overall, the tone is cautiously optimistic, with a focus on adapting, improving efficiency, and planning ahead.
