1467. 21 May 2013 - 19 June 2013 - Performance Report of my youtube videos

Jun 21, 2013
Around 2011, I decided to produce educational veterinary videos for www.toapayohvets.com as "Be Kind to Pets" Educational Videos are more useful for the younger generation of vet students and pet owners in Singapore. 

Most of the young ones don't have time to read and sleep. I collaborate with my interns to produce the veterinary videos. By being hands on, I think they will learn more than just being an observer at the veterinary surgery, as is the common practice for veterinary interns.

I gave them the concept and training for the  theme, e.g. Kennel Cough in A Puppy. They do the writing and editing so that the videos are not boringly my voice or point of view. It takes a thousand times longer to produce an educational video as compared to writing a case study but the educational value of a video is a million times more useful and I hope more entertaining. The videos are not perfect but it is better to produce a hundred imperfect videos and learn from the failures and errors rather than create one perfect video.

Today I review my youtube analytics for May 21 2013 to June 19, 2013 and the following are the results:

1475. De-ticking a heavily infested Border Collie

"Look, look, Dr Sing!" my new assistant said, "So many many ticks in this dog!"  He had never seen several thousands big fat bodies gorging blood from the Border Collie.

I had to teach him how to bathe the Collie in a tick wash in a tub or in the bathroom. Then we had to slowly take out the dead ticks one by one. It was a time-consuming procedure. The owner is then advised to give oral anti-tick medication to prevent relapses as his dog is in the garden. The garden had to be de-ticked and the grass cut short too. The dog would be quarantined in another section of the garden for the time being and checked for ticks daily.
