📚 Summary
In this episode of Tails of Truth, Dr. Angie and JoJo chat about simple ways to get more out of every vet visit. From jotting down your questions and knowing your pet’s vaccine needs, to saying “no thanks” when something doesn’t feel right — they share real, practical tips to help you feel more confident and keep your pet comfortable. Plus, they break down how good communication and a supportive vet team can make all the difference. Dr. Angie and JoJo offer practical advice to help every visit be more efficient, supportive, and aligned with your pet’s well-being.
📌 Key Takeaways

- It’s okay to say “no” or “I’m not sure” during your visit.
- Understand your “vaccine personality” so you can make choices that fit your pet and your comfort level.
- Write down your questions ahead of time — and bring them with you.
- Always bring the primary caretaker to the appointment (or have them on the phone)
- How you transport your pet matters — think ahead about stress, sedation, and comfort.
- A good vet team supports you — there’s no place for pushy sales tactics.
- Take your time — you never have to make decisions on the spot unless it’s truly urgent.
