Just Us, Talking Life & a Plan for JoJo's Anxious Dog

Tell Us What You ThinkIn this episode of Tails of Truth, Dr. Angie and JoJo take a break from veterinary topics for an unscripted, personal catch up after two weeks apart. There's no agenda for this episode other than to give their listeners a peek into their lives. They talk through mutual, mostly unfounded worries about the podcast, chat dating and travels, and share real life updates including a health scare, a surprising pregnancy test twist, and a family court update. The conversation turns practical toward the end as Dr. Angie and JoJo map out, in real time, a sedation plan for JoJo's anxious dog, Sage, ahead of an upcoming vet visit. If your own pet turns into a different animal the moment you walk into a clinic, you'll find you're not alone in trying to figure out how to get veterinary care for your pet.Key TakeawaysAn unscripted personal catch up between Dr. Angie and JoJo after two weeks apart, including their mutual (unfounded) fears about firing/quitting each other.Dr. Angie shares a health update involving endometriosis and an ovarian health scare that turned out to be nothing.JoJo shares a startling positive pregnancy test tied to hormone shifts common in perimenopause/menopause.Real time planning for sedating JoJo's dog, Sage, who is fearful and reactive at the vet, including specific injection techniques used to reduce her stress.A reminder that vet staff have challenging pets too, and a fearful or reactive dog at the clinic is nothing to be embarrassed about.Sound BitesI have to admit JoJo like I've been really worried all week that you hate working here and you're gonna quit.  — Dr. Angie This is where I feel like a jerk...
