#Equine Vet

[smarty-jones]

It baffles me that horse owners and equine vets are still putting horses on compounded pergolide. Saw one today who recently switched to prascend and she was like “oh he’s been so much better, who knew!” Ummm all of us? There are studies? But ok

Week one as a practicing equine veterinarian has been a blast. One heck of a nap was required this weekend, but I'd call it a fabulous start!

Fuck it Friday/Last Line Challenge 🌻

Last night, there I am, lovingly thinking of having enough energy to write on my current WIPs, when @pirrusstuff and I start discussing cowboy boots. Specifically ones with sunflowers on them. And that, friends, is how we ended up here. Please accept this brain dump of words in which Buck is the local livestock vet that Eddie Diaz absolutely cannot stand, but is forced to deal with.

“Bobby.” Eddie’s tone borders on a whine. “There’s nothing else you can do?” “‘Fraid not. I’ve pulled out every trick I know. Ya gotta call him.” Bobby pauses for what Eddie’s certain is only dramatic effect. “Unless, of course, you want her to get an infection or, more realistically, die.” Eddie sighs and lets his head drop between his shoulders. He knows Bobby’s right, even had a feeling it might come to this before Bobby started throwing him nervous glances when Lola didn’t appear to be progressing. Unfortunately, now, there’s no time to waste on Eddie’s petty grudge.   Without looking up from where he’s crouched next to his very pregnant, very distressed mare, Eddie holds his hand out expectantly.   “Already dialed for you,” Bobby says, a little too smugly, handing him the phone.   “‘Lo?” The familiar voice answers, sounding like he’s chewing. Logically, Eddie knows it’s just coincidental timing, but it still feels like a purposeful slight. “Buckley, I’ve got a mare in labor, stalled. Between me and Nash we’ve tried everything we can think of, but we’re gonna need a hand here.”   There’s a long pause that would make him think they got disconnected except for the loud crunching.  “Huh,” Buck finally says. “So there is something you can’t do.” “Are you coming or not?” Eddie spits back. He can practically hear the smirk forming on Buck’s lips.  “Don't worry, sunshine. Be right there.”

Started the day with a headache, but thankfully nothing pain killers, cafeïne and a pain au chocolat couldn’t fix 🙌🏻 a lot of lectures to get through today, but small breaks outside made for a pretty good day ✨

Sunrise at the beach for our first visit back to Muriwai after the February cyclone devastated the area taking peoples lives and houses. The main road has only just reopened, seeing the land slips and damage in person is unreal and the continuous rain and storms we have had since then have only made things worse. What a nightmare of a year

Also here is the original drawing for that first one, it’s over a year old from like June I think

Today in Vet School

My very last overnight shift of clinics and I’m fighting foals and spying on mares waiting to see if they go into labor. Also my allergies are starting to get to me. How do horse people do it?

I'm registered for classes and am planning on buying a little something for those that are Call of Duty fans such as my partner and myself. 🤭

The job hunt for that in veterinary is what is hurting right now. Hoping to get a new hoodie and a mask to start off my cosplay journey with the first paycheck I get after being hired on!!

Cute little hoodie from my favorite cosplayer that I can't wait to get! Love Pigeon Boy!! Wish me luck on the job hunt!

I have realized I attract the weird medicine cases

Because it's only been a year and I've already had several cases that baffle the internal medicine specialists

My offhandedly saying I would have specialized in large animal internal medicine if that was an option is coming back to haunt me big time

[foggy-milk]

Maybe I should got back to uni to study equine veterinary

I have thoughts

But no money

Study vibes 🥰

Poor Storm’s leg has blown up even more 😪 One call to the vet later and he’s now on Bute and antibiotics so hopefully it starts going down and he feels better 🤞
