Weeks before I send a baby home, I send home interview questions with all my new "parents", that they use to interview the vet they are planning on using for their new baby. I tell them to just tell their vet these are questions their breeder gave them to help them become familar with their vet, and usually, the vets are so excited that a breeder actually cares about who is going to have their baby's medical future in their hands, they gladly sit and talk with the new owners. This gets the clients and the vet talking, and gives the new owners the chance to "feel out" their vets personality and bedside manner, as well as how willing he will be to work with the owners, if necessary. |
