I forgot, how old is she? What breed? Just curious.thanks irish and ft! shes still here chirping giving more time for corid to work
Anyway, you might want to see if she will eat some yogurt with the live cultures in it. Maybe dilute it with warm water and give that to her instead of the water. Do you have her under a heat light or over a heating pad? If not (depending on how old she is) I'd make sure she is warm enough too. I'm sure you're doing all that but just thought I'd ask.
Lisa, how is your screaming Ameraucana doing today ? Better I hope.
VickyW not sure if we're going to the swap or not. Depends on a lot of things. I'd like to... but don't need anything.... don't have any money to spend....da da da.....
Two years ago, Jim, Unk and I sat around at a table Wave had set up. What time would you be going? Jim? Unk? Anyone? Mini bash hey ???? lol
Also VW they cancelled the spay clinics in other areas for two weeks because one of the techs had surgery. It's almost impossible, or I should say it is impossible to do what they do without the two techs and of course the Vet. And of course the voluteers.
The volunteers mainly do odd jobs ie, move vari kennels to specific areas..... male/female, private or shelter animals. Fill out Rabies and other paperwork, scrub, wrap and sanitize instruments (is what I do) mostly.
You don't have any hands on with the animals per say. I think that is for liability reasons. When people are dropping off or picking up their beloved pets I often talk to the owners if I've fallen in love with their pet.
I do have to tell you that it can get pretty noisy at the clinics..... when the dogs are waking up from the sedation a lot of them will howl. At first I thought they were in pain but it's not, it's a side effect of the anesthesia. OMG there were two Boston Terriers that were LOUD..... Then the next time there was another Boston Terrier that had some nice vocal cords on him too !! You will meet some interesting breeds, or should I say cross breeds....... You know the designer dogs that had pups from another designer dog breed....= mutt small dog... some are so dang cute !!
The best part of it all is the rewarding feeling you get because you know you just made a small dent in the pet over population !!!
Did I send you Karla's phone number a while ago? If not let me know and I'll look it up for you again.
Jim, I stopped at Fleet Farm in Antigo today, no brussel sprouts. If and it's an IF I go to Crandon before Sunday and I see brussel sprout plants (they are Jade Cross) do you want me to pick some up for you ????
BBP that price should keep the meat buyers away.... just be truthfully honest with people... I know you will be but not everyone in the horse world is.... that way their won't be any surprises for the new owner and your boy won't be up for adoption or auction or shipped to Mexico or Canada for meat because the next owner had problems with him.
I would highly suggest if you have anyone interested in him that is not experienced to tell them he is not a beginner horse AND/OR have them bring their riding instrutor/trainer OR an experienced horse owner with them. He sounds like he has a very curious personality and would love to learn new things. He may be a bit to much for a newbie but a welcome challenge for someone with experience. Some like them with get up and go.... I like them fat and slow !!! lol
Oh and one other reason I'm not sure about Sunday...... ETs boss's son is suppose to come over and scrape my paddocks. He owes me cause I bought him those chicks a few months ago. He said he is going to try to make it here Thursday... I'm not holding my breath. If he doesn't come tomorrow hoping he will come on the weekend. If it doesn't rain.
That's all I'm going to say on that matter........ (keeping all of my thoughts on this subject to myself, but ready to explode).....
Ok, gotta go look up some things.... fill you all in on my doc visit later... still no CPAP.... my insurance may not pay !!!! Because I don't have the true sleep apnea......
