vet clinic owner cannot check in pet

My vet clinic owner isn't a vet, so nothing gets accomplished on the tables by the owner.  She can only greet customers and interact with the hired vet in business matters as far as I know.

I learned this one the hard way, as my pet and vet nearly died trying treatments that would fix the dog. (The owner was a vet and took the pet to her vet clinic while the clinic was closed.)

A vet apparently cannot be successful at treating their own pet at a clinic they own. Weird, huh?

If this is the only vet clinic in your game please download one from the gallery. (I have one called Pet Lovers Vet Clinic, IF I remember the name correctly. It’s under my username.)

Anyway, just take the pet to someone else’s vet clinic. 

Thanks for your help.  I am still new to the game and learned that I can make families visit other neighborhoods with a vet.  It does seem silly that a vet owner has to go through so much trouble to their pet checked.  I hope they fix that.

@Jenadara I agree 100% - I hope they change that. Unfortunately I don't know if it's by design or a bug, but it's extremely frustrating, and it seems illogical as well. 🤔
