Knowing your vet, trusting him or her, and
having a deeper knowledge from their point of view and work ethic can really
make taking your dog to the doctor more meaningful (and hopefully more often
for the check-ups that so desperately go undone for pets most homes today
because there is a lack of trust on the dog owner's part).
To help you better understand the core of
most licensed veterinarians out there, take a look at the following ideas. For
starters, there is a good chance that your veterinarian feels exactly the
following in their practice:

1) Cares about your animals, cares about
you – whether for the sake of your dog, you or the business – wants to see
successful outcomes, healthy pets and satisfied clients. The only way business
can be continued and clients be made happy is for the well-being of everyone
involved.
2) Worries about getting sued, or being
brought before the state regulatory board. This worry is disproportionate to
the actual chance that this will happen, but that doesn't change your
veterinarian's awareness of the possibility, which may make some vets better
doctors, and in other cases, more paranoid and less willing to take chances.
3) Feels that he or she doesn't have an
income commensurate with the amount of time and education that it took to
become a veterinarian. And paradoxically, it is also true that many (although
certainly far from all) veterinarians suspect they charge too much, and feel guilty
about it.

4) Fails at mind reading. In other words,
the doctor has no way of knowing any information, feelings, or opinions you may
have on an issue unless voiced. And without your willingness to share, a
relationship can fail to bond, which may have negative repercussions for your
dog down the road.
5) Harbors a zero tolerance for mistakes
(and most likely, you do too). And guess what? All doctors make mistakes.
Your veterinarian tries to do his or her
best under the circumstances that present themselves, but what must be kept in
mind (by both parties) is that it is your dog. If that concept is too difficult
for your veterinarian, find a new one. And on the flip-side, if you can look
deep inside your own attitude, perhaps you are not giving your vet enough
trust, communication and open-mindedness.
