"The Franchise Vet's Strategic-Invoicing & Overkill Manual" 3rd Edition. ©2022"

Note from Doc Johnson: "The kind of thinking you see in corporate Veterinary Medicine, is why I mourn the take over of the Veterinary industry by corporations and non-doctor franchise practices."

Now available from While-E Press, Inc. this textbook written by twenty-two-year-old-non-Veterinarian-MBA's in Arizona and Maine.

Without a shred of medical training or clinic-experience, the Wunderkinds at Franchise Vets Inc. have authored the definitive manual for maximizing the profit of any franchise veterinary enterprise by using terms like "Highest Quality Veterinary Practice." and "We'll Know The Answer to That Question After This Next Test" (No matter what the question IS! (Brilliant) to drive up consumer concern and spending; on even the most hopeless and terminal cases.

These kids have a Master's Degree in Business and Marketing and zero other qualifications to be able to structure tests in the most "high quality medicine" way before initiating treatment or even talking to the client.

You'll learn

How to break a service into 'components' to magnify the charges
How to confuse a client
How Google can work WITH your practice by forecasting dire impacts from trivial disorders *but* NOT providing any context or morbidity data
How to write a dizzying rule out list and work through EVERY possibility even when (many times) TWO rule outs versus the symptoms cancel each other off the list.
What to say when a cat disease ends up on a dog's rule out list or vice versa. (See also: How to report a defect in the computer rule-out algorithm to I.T.)
What to say when a test is unnecessary but "required" by corporate
How to respond when a customer calls you out on your commissions and upselling pressure.
How to maneuver customers into the "next test".
Making the littlest disorder seem life-threatening so that forever-after the customer will be saying "They saved my dog's life".
How to justify two or even three radiograph views and a chest-film on a non-displaced transverse mid-humerus fracture.
What to do with the Zillow Software returns the wrong home value estimate for the client's zip address, and you don't know how heavily to pad the bill? (Yes this software exists)
How to turn a "limp" into a urinalysis and bloodwork.
How to discover ONE *actually treatable* disease that actually requires CT or MRI for diagnosis while Myelogram and Ultrasound are available for half the cost.

Oxyfresh has been around a VERY long time and still hasn't been surpassed. I love the water additive. I recommend it's made fresh daily with distilled water, and for bad mouths - double strength. Always safe. this will NOT dissolve tartar but it will kill germs, reduce pus and infection and keep teeth from getting "bad" if they're not already. Kit includes gel and brushes.

Oxyfresh complete dental kit.

BABYLTRL Dog Cone Collar for After Surgery, Soft Pet Recovery Collar for Dogs and Cats, Adjustable Cone Collar Protective Collar for Small Medium Large Dogs Wound Healing

Anymore these days companies are NOT making cones that are long enough to protect feet, OR stop head shaking. You really just need a cone. And this is the most important part - YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO FIX IT TO THE COLLAR because NO CONE is tight enough to resist a back foot pushing on it. And they'll do it! (Buy The Right One on Amazon)

Something else I found for my dog "Ajax" that's cool:

Sporn Dog Halter STOPS "pulling and tugging" NOW. (Link)

This is what I use now, with my dog Ajax. I used to use the Gentle Leader, but I didn't like including his face in the thing. Now, this just goes around his chest and he DOES NOT PULL ANY MORE. It's great! Amazon.com has it.

Labra Dog Canine K9 Knee Stifle Brace Wrap Metal Hinged Flexible Support Treat ACL CCL Luxating Patella Cruciate Ligament Sprain Strain Tear Injuries

I couldn't get behind these until this one came out. It has a strap that keeps the thing from sliding down. THAT strap has a strap that keeps the thing from rolling down off the dog's rump. And the whole thing does NOT wrap around his weiner area (which would have been fine for a female dog of course) so this one has THREE key engineering points.

Buy the proper knee brace and put it on tight!
