Conference

We arrived home from the CVC (Central Veterinary Conference) today. It was a really good time. I got to attend a lot of lectures-most of which were pretty good. I also got to learn about some new products and medications-some of which look pretty exciting. And of course I collected a large amount of free stuff I don't even need. Saturday night we went to the MU alumni reunion where I was able to visit with friends and classmates and their families. Sunday we attended the free Jo Dee Messina concert sponsored by Hill's. Although I am not a huge Jo Dee Messina fan it actually was a good concert-she put on a very entertaining show and was really funny between songs.

The dogs were excited to see me but were also excited about their new toys that I got for them at Crown Center (we managed to get some shopping in while we were there too). I also got a "Tug-a-Jug" at the conference but they have not tried that out yet. Here are Legend and Zodiac tugging on one of their new "Tuffies." Leslie and I ran into our practice consultant while at the conference and she insisted that I go with her and Leslie to some practice management seminars despite not being a practice manager or owner. It was a good lecture though and gave us some ideas of things we can do different or better at the clinic so we are excited about that.
