You know the one. The dog that has been in three times this month for diarrhoea, the owner who is starting to wonder if you actually know what you are doing, and the quiet worry that maybe you have missed something. Most of the time you have not missed anything at all - the case just sat in a framework that was never built to hold it.
Chronic enteropathy does not resolve on instinct and a hopeful diet trial. It resolves on a structure that tells you when to test, when to treat, and when to let the gut do its own work. That is what Dr Betty Chow BVM&S, MRCVS, DACVIM (SAIM) walks you through in Essentials of Gastrointestinal Diseases - a board-certified specialist in small animal internal medicine giving you the approach she actually uses, plus direct Q&A where you can bring her your own cases.

You're not at a specialist hospital. There's no one to call. And the question isn't theoretical - it's standing in front of you right now.
One of our vets in The Vet Tribe Community asked exactly this: no anterograde catheter, no pigtail drain available - is it even safe to try a normal urinary catheter on a uroabdomen case, or do you just stabilise and refer?
Dr Rebecca Walton DVM DACVECC - board-certified specialist in emergency and critical care - answered it directly, with the kind of clinical clarity that actually helps you make a decision at the time.
Swipe through to read her full answer.
This is what The Vet Tribe community looks like in practice - vets asking the questions they're genuinely unsure about, and Board Certified Specialists answering them properly.
➡️ Comment "Rebecca" below and we'll send you the link to her course, Essentials of Emergency Medicine, directly. Next intake starts July 6.
We sat down with Dr Franziska Meyer DVM DACVECC and asked the question a lot of vets have wondered about - how different is emergency medicine in the US compared to Europe?
Her answer? Less different than you’d expect.
Franzi trained at the University of Bern in Switzerland, completed her residency across the University of Bern and Washington State University in the US, worked in both Switzerland and the UK, and became a Diplomate in Small Animal Emergency and Critical Care in 2022. She now works as a Senior Lecturer at the University of Zurich - and she has genuinely seen emergency medicine from both sides of the Atlantic.
She’s also one of our mentors here at The Vet Tribe, leading the Essentials of Trauma course - six weeks of specialist-led, case-based learning built around real clinical decisions.

That dog that comes in with patchy hair loss and you’re running through your differential list.
Cushing’s? Hypothyroidism? Both can cause alopecia.
Dr Yi Cui DVM, Diplomate ECVIM-CA - board-certified specialist in Companion Animal Internal Medicine and Mentor at The Vet Tribe - answered this exact question inside our community.
Every word in this carousel is hers.

Low volume cuff vs high volume cuff - do you know which one you should be reaching for and why the contact area actually matters?
This is the kind of detail that lives between “I know how to intubate” and “I understand what I’m doing and why” - and it’s exactly the level of thinking Dr Kristi Kobluk DVM DACVAA (American Board-Certified Veterinary Anaesthesiologist) brings to every single module of this online course for veterinarians.
A 215+ page workbook, 55+ video lessons, downloadable drug charts and direct access to a specialist who genuinely wants you to feel confident behind that machine. 12 RACE and AVA approved CPD points included.

There’s a particular kind of quiet dread that comes with endocrine cases. The diabetic that won’t stabilise, the Cushing’s that doesn’t read like the textbook said it would, the moment you’re staring at results and second-guessing every next step. Most of us were handed the theory and then left to figure out the messy reality on our own.
It doesn’t have to feel that way for the rest of this year. Our Essentials of Canine Endocrinology course with Dr Yi Cui DVM ECVIM-CA takes you from guessing to a clear plan you actually trust - the kind of confidence that turns the case you used to dread into the one you feel sure about.
Enrolment for this intake closes in a few days, and we don’t want you walking into the next case still second-guessing when you could walk in sure. Join now while the doors are open. Comment Yi and we’ll send you the link. 🩺
