This tip will keep you-and your veterinary patients-happy.
Trying to give a vaccination or trim a wiggly puppy's nails? Distract the squirmy patient by smearing some Nutri-Cal on the treatment table. The pet will be so interested it won't even realize what you're doing. (Make sure you smear it on the table or else the patient will lick it up too quickly!)
