About the Veterinarian Behind House of Tails
House of Tails journals are written by T. Abend, a licensed veterinarian and the author of Veterinary Mindset. Every journal is built on clinical experience and current international veterinary guidelines.

Why a veterinarian created these pet health journals
Veterinary medicine begins with observation. Every day you notice things no veterinarian can.
The ability to perceive changes, to interpret them and to understand them over time is one of the foundations of good care. My job is to help you understand which of those changes matter.
House of Tails was created to carry exactly this thinking into the everyday life of pet owners — in a form that is as well-founded as it is pleasant to use.
Based on clinical experience. Guided by current veterinary guidelines. Made for people to whom every detail matters.
For better conversations with your veterinarian.
