Been sick this last week, and have struggled to get my head in the game. Took some medicine, will take a short nap and then knock out everything I need to do!

A little about me!

My name is Emma Brown and I am hoping to be a Veterinarian someday! 

Here are a few fun facts

~I love cheese, it’s the best thing ever.

~I am not relying on my intelligence to get me through school, but my dedication and work level will.

~I love horses and large animals but hope to own a large and small animal clinic someday. (Maybe add exotics in too.)

~As of August 2017 I am a freshman at Colorado State University.

~My majors are Animal Science, Equine Science and a minor in Biomedical Science.

~I would say my best class is anything animal related, and my toughest will be science (I do love science, I just have a hard time with connections!)

~I’ve wanted to be a vet for my entire life.

Follow me on this journey!

Today was my first day at my new externship. It’s a mixed animal practice which is pretty cool, but I’m going to mainly be the farm call intern. This clinic and I seem to be a great fit already. The vet is fun and knowledgeable, and the vet tech that rides with him is super funny and so nice. They seem to have the same sense of humor as me also.

The first stop was to a boarding facility where 13 horses needed spring packages (vaccines, fecals, etc). We spent a good amount of time there and it was nice to see the vet spending so much time explaining things to his clients and going at their pace.

I’m not going to list all of the horses that were there because it’s repetitive, but none of them. had a body condition over 6.5 which is apparently great coming out of winter. Some of them needed their teeth floated and feet trimmed.  

The next and final stop was to a personal farm where two goats needed their feet trimmed. They had to be restrained and were, apparently, escape artists. They cooperated eventually and got their feet done. Also, at this call, was a steer--the biggest cow I’ve ever seen in my life. His head was probably the size of my head and torso. He seemed really sweet. His human said that he was going through spells of not eating or drinking and that it would rectify itself a few days later. The vet gave some recommendations and said to call him ASAP if it happened again. He was chowing down on hay as they were talking so he seemed to be alright.

This vet does rabies vacc on the right, EWT/WNV on the left, and Flu/Rhino on the bum

How to remember forceps/Hemostats : Pre-Vet Surgery Allis foreceps: Are weird like Alice in wonderland! Pinchy pinchy ends! Rochester Camalt foreceps: ALLL THE WAY TO ROCHESTER. Long striations Crile hemostats: Krill are small and so are these striations Mosquito hemostats: Small and bendy like a mosquito nose Rat tooth foreceps: They have rat teeth, thumb foreceps cause small and can close with use of thumb and pointer finger (not like scissors) Brown Adson: Also are thumb forceps but no teeth :( Kelly hemostats: KELLY IS TWO FACED (I’m sorry to all the Kelly’s out there. this is the only way I can learn this one. I have no personal quarrel with Kelly’s.) Has striations but only half way down, the rest is flat.
