Tailer Meets Dr. Barchas for a Check-Up
Anders

Hi, Anders here–I’m nudging Dr. B off of his soapbox for a few minutes to jump in on the Vet Blog today because I had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Barchas this past weekend for Tailer’s first check-up since he arrived from Sweden.

Due to Tailer’s leap of faith at 0:24 in the video, I almost posted this on Snuzzy as well, but in the end felt that, thanks to a super thorough and very informative interview with Dr. Barchas, it really needed to be posted here.

Dr. Barchas talks about common vaccines, rabies, feline Leukemia, feline HIV and microchipping, among other things. Hope you enjoy it–HUGE thanks to Dr. Barchas for making this happen.

If you can’t see the video in your feed reader, you can watch it here or you can check it out on YouTube.

    Tailer, you done good! I get my teeth brushed. We use CET seafood flavored tooth paste. It comes with a little toothbrush, but my Mommie found that a toothbrush made for infants is easier to hold because the handle is a little bit longer.

    Good job Tailor! We are glad you are healthy! Dr. Barchas has excellent bedside manners and not to mention he properly informed your dad about everything so he could make the right decisions for you. We like that!

    Awesome and very informative, especially for Mommy who’s considering going to school to become a vet assistant. Tailer was awesome too, those jumps were amazing!
