[h2]New additions and interactions to your shelter with Vet Clinic DLC:[/h2]

[h3]🏥 Professional facilities [/h3]
Patients with complex cases need complex tools to diagnose and treat them. Unlock new rooms and equipment to take in animals that need your care the most. Expand your vet clinic with an underground area reserved for MRI and x-ray rooms, all customizable to align with your taste. 🚑

[h3]😽 Help animals [/h3]
The animals you care for may have illnesses or conditions that you have not encountered before. Use advanced medical equipment to pinpoint the exact illness that affects the animal, including the ten new ailments added. Analyze samples, scan body parts, scale teeth, apply ointments, and more in order to give your pets complete care! 🪥

[h3]🤒 Physical and mental health for your animals [/h3]
Physical health, as important as it is, is not all that there is to an animal’s well-being. After purchasing a clicker in the store, you’ll be able to train your animals commands and encourage desired behaviors. Training the animals in your shelter not only stimulates their mind, but also corrects unwanted behaviors, making them more appealing to adopters. 💕

[h3]🔥 New minigames and mechanics![/h3]
The new ways to care for your animals’ health are varied and can involve fun minigames that you have to play in order to place a correct diagnosis. Train your pets’ mind and nose with the new nosework mechanic by creating scent trails that they have to follow. Encourage the traits you want and correct the ones you don’t by training with a clicker. 🐕
