About this listen

 In this heartwarming episode of Tails to Tell, we’re live from the clinic with a very special guest—my dad, John! You've heard his name and stories sprinkled throughout past episodes, and today he joins me in person to share his unforgettable tales of growing up in the country, his lifelong love for animals, and the many memorable pets that became part of our family legacy.

From bird dogs and ponies to rogue roosters and “loaded weapon” retrievers, we laugh (and nearly cry) through the stories that shaped his childhood and mine. We also explore the impact of animal companionship on family life, the evolution of pet care, and some hilarious misadventures that only a true animal lover could appreciate.

We also talk about the importance of setting boundaries, understanding animal behavior, and the powerful life lessons pets teach us along the way. You’ll hear how my dad’s old-school wisdom still holds up today—and how it’s influenced the way I care for animals in my own veterinary practice.

Whether you're a longtime pet parent or just an animal admirer, this episode is full of warmth, nostalgia, and the deep bond between humans and their furry (and feathery) friends.
