Young Vets

[carolyorkie2010]

Is anyone watching "Young Vets", weekdays on BBC2? I'm finding it really interesting. What a shame about that poor little kitten last night.

[carolyorkie2010]

Aww yes that Hedgehog, poor little thing, but at least they made sure it wasnt suffering any more. I was once told that a vet can treat a person if needs be, but a doctor cannot treat an animal

lol. I don't think you'd like me to take your temperature or give you an injection it usually follows after a good smack on the area you intend to inject, on the larger animals of course, I don't recommend giving someone's pet hamster a good smack& dogs & cats tend to not like it either.lol.or turning up when your in labour with ropes & pulley

OOhhh LOL you know i looked at that thing they were using the other night, to rest on that cows rump then lever that calf out!!!!. I was thinking its a good job they dont use them on humans. I suppose Forceps must be the Human Equivalant of those!!!

Is anyone watching this tonight?  We were in tears over Blue the dog.  I could have hugged his young owner.  What a lovely young man.

[carolyorkie2010]

Yes, I watched it. Poor Blue, its awful when your dog starts to have fits. Was there an update on how he was doing, as I nodded off.?

OMG it started me bawling again,,,but i felt better after!!!!!!!!!!!!. That poor dog and that young lad when he said he was goin to give him cuddles and stuff galore,,Ohhhhh BLESS HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Broke my heart!!!!!!!!!!. But Judy always makes me smile,,she has an infectious sense of humour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

We cried when we watched that.  It's awfully sad.

I've just come in on it as they were taking the wee jack russell back to his cage. He had heart surgery! and went home after 3 days....aawww so cute.

[bitsnknots]

Aww that Jack Russell was lovely.  It did well didn't it?

I have to watch last nights on Catch up,,, i was still catching up on last weeks progs. Sometimes i get a Backlog LOL. Theres been some good animal programmes on lately in abundance!!.

[bitsnknots]

I don't think that it was on last night because of the athletics.

We're watching it now and we were in tears over the labrador that had a heart condition and it had previously had cancer.  They removed the pericardium and sent it off for tests which came back as cancerous.  It was sad because that lovely dog had to go to Rainbow Bridge.
