National Dog Photography Day, how photogenic is your pet?

I have been in the veterinary field for over 30 years. During the first 25+ years I only experienced a handful of bites involving either myself or other veterinary staff, most of those were minor nips. During the last 5 years there have been at least 8 serious bites, some requiring hospitalization. “Gentle parenting” our pets is doing more harm than good. This may be an unpopular opinion among the “Fear Free” veterinary community. I whole heartedly agree with trying to make the veterinary experience fun and with less stress for our patients. However, not teaching your pets boundaries is making our job even more dangerous. An increase in the number and severity of bites causes our insurance rates to go up, which leads to us raising our rates in order to cover that cost. Everybody wins if you teach your pets that it is not okay to bite even when scared.
