Yet again the Festive Season is hurtling upon us. Jobs are unfinished, cards and presents not bought yet, holidays not planned, the whole scenario is the same this time every year.

What also never changes is that, every year, the whole team at Ethical Agents wish all their friends in the veterinary world a very Merry Christmas and a happy and successful New Year.

We always have a Christmas flavour to the December Newsletter and this is reinforced this year with the special Christmas promotions for Greenies R.We hope to have point of sale material

available to all outlets free of charge for a seasonal promotion, so speak to your area manager because Greenies R. makes an ideal gift for a dog lover.

The rest of the newsletter has timely articles on equine subjects, of interest to all practitioners and, in the small animal field there is discussion on Milk Thistle and its veterinary uses, which are now recognised by leading pharmacologists.

No longer can this herbal product be considered in the realm of alternative medicine.

The usual jokes mostly have a festive season theme, especially the New Year Resolutions FAQ, which should be appreciated by all those who make sincere promises to themselves at the start of every year and then find that they cannot live up to them.

Enjoy, and to all a very Merry Christmas
