Is This Money Well Spent? – Truth about Pet Food

There is a veterinarian conference coming to Orlando Florida this weekend (January 14 – 18, 2023). This conference boasts some BIG Hollywood and music headliners for the veterinarian attendees.

Such as the actor Cole Hauser (“Best-known for his current role as the fan-favorite “Rip Wheeler” on Paramount’s Yellowstone, Cole Hauser has delivered a range of great characters over the years in films like Good Will Hunting, Dazed and Confused, 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Break-Up, and A Good Day to Die Hard.”) will make a visit to the veterinary conference. His visit is sponsored by Hill’s Pet Food.

According to Celebrity Talent International, Cole Hauser charges a fee of “$150,000-$299,000” to appear at a corporate event.

The VMX veterinary conference is also bringing in actor Kevin Bacon (“His critically acclaimed body of work includes Footloose, She’s Having a Baby, A Few Good Men, The River Wild, Murder in the First, Apollo 13 and countless other favorites beloved by fans far and wide.”) Kevin Bacon’s visit is sponsored by animal drug manufacturer Boehringer Ingelheim.

According to Celebrity Talent International, Kevin Bacon charges a similar fee of “$150,000-$299,000” to appear at corporate events.

And then…also at the conference is the country music group Lady Antebellum. The band’s performance is sponsored by animal drug manufacturer Merck Animal Health.

According to Celebrity Talent International, Lady Antebellum charges a fee of “$300,000-$499,000” to perform at a corporate event.

Totaling up…

This veterinary conference is spending anywhere from $600,000 to $1.1 million dollars for JUST 3 celebrity moments.

Is this necessary at a veterinary conference?

Is this why animal drugs and Hill’s prescription pet food is so expensive (have to pay for those celebrities)?

Is it money well spent?

Or should the $1.1 million dollar fee for these three celebrity moments have been spent in much better ways? (Such as funding pet food banks or helping families pay veterinary bills.)

Our thanks to Dr. Laurie Coger for sharing this information about the VMX veterinary conference.
