1. Wow, I never knew there were people that hated vets

I wasn't fond of our last veterinarian because they kept charging us money and not actually helping our dog. Said she was allergic to the food and to give her this other special hypoallergenic food to stop the crystals/blood in her urine. We spent about $800 and she was still getting UTIs/crystals in her urine. But that's never been a hatred for all vets.

Switched to our current vet who gave her antibiotics and Benedryl and stayed on top of it. It took about 8 weeks of antibiotics and Benedryl to fix the issue, but she hasn't had any issues since - since 2002 - because we know that she's allergic to pollen and every year, we proactively treat her with Benedryl to help her through allergy season.

Now, our dogs and cats hate all vets, but that's a different story
