Surgery day!

Today we had the normal smattering of puppies, rechecks, vaccinations, etc. but we DID have a surges, albeit just a neuter but still co, though I got grilled about castrations, which we actually didn't go over much in dogs, so I kind of had to extrapolate for horse and bull castrations, but I got most of the questions right I think! Then the vet had his cat in for surgery since he has an unkown Mass in his abdomen. Since the vet was nervous about doing this he asked that I not be in there until he actually knew what he was dealing with, though I did help him hear up. It was fine, I read some diagnostic book and monitored the post op dog, which gave me some practice at taking TPRs so it worked out. The cats prognosis is not super good, he's gonna take him to Glasgow to have him checked at the small animal hospital since he didn't feel he could remove it because of its form and location. So that was unfortunate, and I felt bad that he was worried about his cat all day, so it can't have been easy, and today was a particularly long day so towards the end I think he was ready for the day to be over. Still saw a bunch of puppies! Seriously so many puppies, and a kitten finally. Engadget some crazy clients, also we had a rabbit and a hamster come in, which I was kinda meh about, but it was nice to shake things up. Tomorrow were gonna have some surgeries and an ultrasound so that looks like fun. I feel like these posts are not going to be as interesting to read as the farm animal ones since Ive seen so much of this stuff before I don't really know what's note worthy! Though I am learned a lot about dental problems, there's been a few pups that come in with base narrow teeth and you have to correct it with a rubber ball so the adult teeth don't come in base narrow as well and disrupt the other teeth. There's been 3 I think I've seen, so that's pretty cool.
