Sam Schopler from PetDesk joins us to discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of bringing technology into the pet industry for pets, pet parents, and vets alike. 


Sam says:

“The shift that we’re feeling now is a transition from a place where veterinarians were the sacred truth for pet health, to now needing to be more facilitators of information and the appropriate dispersal of that information to pet owners.”


“The amount of information that we’re compiling in terms of veterinary medicine is growing exponentially.”

“The idea that we’re [veterinarians] going to be the shepherds of every single piece of information is a concept that is fading quickly.”

“We need to make sure that the pets are always at the focus of benefit for this new wave of technology and that the pet care providers are having an easy experience as well.”
