Good pilot!
I am not a pet person, so this pilot may not be a practical input for me. However, I enjoyed the details, enthusiasm of the professor and the topic in general. Good pilot!

I could see a whole course on veterinarian studies
The instructor was very knowledgeable and the information was presented in a coherent manner and quite useful too! I would love to see a whole course on it with this professor. Her mannerisms were good and voice chipper and motivational. Would definitely watch a whole course with her.

The information was good, but I found it annoying that she kept turning from one camera to another and the tone of voice was somewhat infomercial-like rather than casual and friendly. I would have liked pictures like the lily with each of the poison types as most people are visual learners, plus I think there should be an expiation of how to use the items in the poison kit. I am much less interested in what the vet does once the pet gets there than what I should/can do. Great topic though.

Good information
This lecture gives a quick overview of what common products and items around the house can be dangerous to our pets, and what to do to help the animal. It is useful to me to know what help I can give my pet at home, and when I need to get to the e-vet right away. It was also very informative in the information of what procedures the vets with use. Generally the vet will give a rapid list of what treatments they gave, but do not actually explain how these work. Of course, when my pet is in immanent danger, I am not giving my vet my full and undivided attention. It is later when I try to understand the treatments. This program gave useful information and the presenter gave clear and precise instructions on what, as a pet owner, to avoid leaving around the house. I also appreciated her adamant statements about home remedies.

Good information
There was a lot of information on a lot of different kinds of poisons and what can be done. Hopefully in other lectures it can be explained more easily for the novice pet owner. Otherwise I found informative.

Helpful information for pet owners
Good overview of common poison threats to cats, dogs and other pets. Well presented, but very general. It might be better to have separate courses for dogs and cats.
