Busy busy

Today was another full speed day. Before I even had a chance to be bored in the morning I was grabbed by one of the vets to come out on a call, which I was excited about because its nice to leave the hospital for a bit and get out! It turns out that I wasn't really needed, but it was a nice change of pace. First we saw a foot abscess and rebandaged it. Then we went to do a suture removal on a yearling, nothing particularly exciting. Though yesterday there was a shooting at a livery yard that we see, and the vet I was with today was there Friday. So it's all anyone was talking about. And the fact that it was a shooting was crazy because guns are so hard to get here. So that was weird. Then we went back to the hospital and saw a bunch of lameness cases for the rest of the day. Really more of the same, though one is going to get a bone scan, though I won't be here to see it, alas.  Also I forgot to say yesterday that I got to be in the knock out box! It went surprisingly smoothly and the horse went down very well.
