The Dubs have created a social media campaign based completely on content rather than traditional advertising that aims to provide people working within the veterinary industry with a place to discuss topical issues, trade ideas and swap advice.
A 24 part interview series has been solely produced by The Dubs which features interviews conducted by Technical Service Veterinarian for Bayer Health, Bob Rees with key opinion leaders from the veterinarian industry discussing topical issues affecting the industry.
One interview a week will be released and vets are encouraged to comment and become involved in the discussion surrounding the issues discussed.
