warped

That's right.....I can park here, finally!

Burrhoda is camera shy

Nic enticing Che che with Cheerios

Gloria lookin' for some treats


we will surely miss south friar's beach when we leave

First round of exams were my best so far. The professors probably figure we've been through the ringer and have proved ourselves worthy. We got our donkey "Burrhoda" and MuFossa our Sheep. Burrhoda sure does have an attitude, but she's coming around slowly. Sharie and the girls come out to watch me SOAP (assess) Burrhoda. Twice, someone (on cue)has stopped to want to take a picture of "the family" watching papa SOAP so we try our best to pose.

Of course here at RUSVM taking photographs is against school policy due to some pro PeTA student. Such student (1) has warped the facts and released photographs of our post operative animals. It's unfortunate because implementing such a rule will not be effective (but it's a try) and more importantly will make it seem as if we have something to hide (which we don't). Anyhow if your interested read the article from our local St. Kitts paper, our dean put it very well and I support him 100%:
In my opinion if PETA really does feel that we treat animals inhumanely here then I have news for them.....the way we surgically treat animals is at the same if not higher standards than the average US veterinarian. So perhaps the veterinary profession as a whole should be condemned?
