//podcastplus.net/feed/more-than-just-a-vet~d4e0a32a (I'm having a break from podcasting - Keep an eye on here site for updates)- Veterinary life journeys. TV programs always present veterinary professionals as pet-loving people whose only worries lay at the practice, but vets are human too and make mistakes sometimes. Not only at work, but in life. I thought, if animal lovers saw our humanity, they would understand us better. And if they can understand us better, our animals would reap the benefit. Welcome to https://morethanjustavet.net podcast. A veterinary podcast exploring the human side of veterinary professionals.* All guests' comments and opinions expressed are solely their own and do not necessarily express the views or opinions of the podcast(er) or interviewer(s).#mtjav #mtjav_guest #podcast #veterinary podcast Mon, 07 Sep 2026 17:09:47 +0000 https://www.buzzsprout.com/1746416/11132295-redrawing-the-world-with-nia-weinzweig-a-welsh-in-new-zealand.mp3 Nia is the latest #MTJAV guest. After feeling disappointed by her first job in the industry, she started to travel around the world and ended up in New Zealand. Her amazing life story goes through Japan, Nepal, and Stewart Island. But we will also talk about Wales, her drawing (a passion that made her the front page of a kiwi magazine!), Sea lions storming football pitches and golf courses, and much more!

Despite the life-changing move, she hasn't lost her 'veterinary' identity. Miranda’s story of diversifying is becoming more and more popular in the veterinary industry, but it is still an extraordinary one. Her parents do not come from the veterinary world, but she chose veterinary because 'I love science and animals’. Perhaps the truest and most concise reason we do this job. ----------------------------------------------------- Ads Visit Alamosbeach.com - a place to unwind.

We discuss the why. But we also provide evidence for those who choose not to believe it. We talk about the causes that have led us to today's situation. In our talk, we explore Brexit, the pandemic, reasons for vets to stay or leave the profession and gender discrimination in the workplace.

Fancy getting your latest trendy cross breed cocker-labra-pug-doodle bitch pregnant? Think again. Abby tells us about just *some* of the things that can go wrong in the 'puppy trade'. These poor animals are living beings, and as such can (and will) attract large vet bills and welfare disasters. Don't get caught up by inexperience and dubious advice. If you are planning to breed, do your research.  And by that, I mean ask your vet. Not some random social media group.
