14th November

In work experience this week, I got to see my first x- ray. The poor Labrador was hit by a car, and she had a fractured pelvis. Another dog was spayed, and she was very confused when she woke up- as soon as she came to her senses, she cried a lot. A bit of good old TLC saw her right, though :)

This week at the vet's, I was helping to take blood from a Dalmatian. He was very nervous, but we managed to get the phial in the end! I also met a lovely kitten called Betty, who was just 8 weeks old.

Week One at the Vet's

Hello everyone! My first day of work experience was on Wednesday. I have a placement at a veterinary clinic in Naas. From the moment I walked in until the moment I left, I felt like a part of the team. I sat in on consultations and even got to observe an operation! Every minute was exciting, as I always had something to do. And the nurses said that was a quiet day! I am ecstatic about going back next week... :-)

The First One...

So, I am due to make my break (sort of) into the world of work on the 26th of September, at a veterinary clinic in Naas. I'm ecstatic- looking after animals will be so humbling, and hopefully I will grow to understand the everyday goings on in a vet's...
