This is the first in our series of episodes called, "Them's the Rules!" where we explore the little known rules, regulations, and guidelines for really important aspects of animal care. In this episode, Dr. Jen the vet and Dr. Jason are joined by Stephanie Shipley, the current Chair of the Professional Animal Care Certification Council (PACCC). The PACCC is the world's only certification program for animal care professionals and requires successful examination for different levels of professionals: Providers, Managers, and Operators.
The conversation ranges from PACCC standards and evolution to what should pet owners be looking for when choosing a boarding kennel for their pet, a groomer, or a doggie day care location. If you are currently looking for pet care, you need to listen to this first!
