Happy Monday! Who is excited for Memorial Day Weekend? As you prepare for your (hopefully) long weekend we want to make sure you have a chance to sit back and catch up on what is happening in the veterinary industry!

Here is what you can find this week on dvm360.com:

• Today is National Lucky Penny Day! In honor of this day, Pet Poison Helpline shared the story of Winnie the Pug. Winnie swallowed change that was not a big concern to the owner at first, but once she was sick for a week her owner brought her to the hospital where she was showing signs of zinc poisoning.
• Petriage announced they have received a patent for its remote pet symptom analysis tool that the company will receive on June 7, 2022. This patent encompasses teletriage for both pets and animals.
• dvm360’s very own editorial advisory board member Steve Dale, CABC, has received the inaugural AVMA Excellence in Media Award.
• The ElleVet Project announced its 2022 relief mission to provide no cost veterinary care, supplies, and food to pets of the homeless and street pets in certain states beginning next month
• And much more!
