Abstract
Rural, mixed animal veterinary practices offer a variety of professional services to their clientele. Practitioners must decide which services to offer and how much time to dedicate to each offering. These decisions are influenced by the perceived need for each service in the area and the potential income that can be generated from the specific service.
