Ever notice how it's easier to remember the one thing that went wrong than the 25 things that went right? That's called negativity bias, and our brains are wired for it.
Before you wrap up today, challenge yourself to name one win; it doesn’t matter if it is big or small.

We asked pet owners across the board how they feel
about their vets, and the answer was clear: Our animals are family,
and the people who care for them deserve to feel appreciated. Yet
51% of veterinarians say their profession isn't. Let's change that.

Vet mental health? It's in the crapper. 🚽

The people who spend their days caring for our pets are carrying a heavy load. Long hours. Emotional exhaustion. Financial stress. Burnout.

In fact, 75% of veterinary professionals report burnout & 92% say they experience stress at work.

It doesn't have to stay that way.

We've launched a new page to share the stories behind the statistics and how Veterinary Hope Foundation is creating spaces for veterinary teams to connect, heal & lighten the load.

Take a look, share it with a veterinary professional you love, and help us spread the word: lightenloads.com

As many celebrate the Fourth of July with family, friends, and fireworks, we know the holiday can look a little different in veterinary medicine. Whether you're on call, working an emergency shift, helping anxious pets through the weekend, or finding a quiet moment to recharge, thank you for the care you provide.

We hope you find time to celebrate and to care for yourself, too. Happy Independence Day from Veterinary Hope Foundation!
