Stuff Vets Say

This is a lie. Every dog can bite. Just because yours chooses not to bite you, does not mean that in a scary new place, that smells like other animals and cleaning solution and fear, with scary new people, that touch places your dog does not want to be touch, with the added bonus of feeling sick/scared/carsick/cornered, he or she won’t bite me or my tech. It’s a possibility. 

Seriously, common courtesy goes a long way!

Also, she loves all the "inner pockets". These aren't even the fanciest scrubs out there, y'all. She is so excited about her new scrubs. It's adorable.

My tech is super excited about making this noise with her scrubs. All. The. Time.

Vet: make sure you turn on the beep-beep! Tech:..... The what? .... Tech Asst: Oh! The thing that goes on the tongue!! The pulse oximeter. It send a a flashing light signal from one side of a clamp through a tongue or finger/toe or ear, and based on the time and strength of the light when it hits the receiver on the other side of the clamp, it can measure pulse, respiratory rate, and amount of oxygen saturation in the blood. It also beeps in conjunction with the heart rate. The "beep-beep" machine.

Bucket Baby for Dog Emergency A client called with an emergency and needed the vet to call her immediately with what to do. When asked why she couldn't bring the dog in, she said she had a baby with her that she was watching. My tech's response was: "What's the problem?? Throw that baby in a bucket and go!!!"

"Ugh, why you no have boyfriend?" "Yo teeth is nasty." "Ugh." "Yo teeth crooked." "Ugh ugh ugh." "Ew. Yo breath stank." "Why you got hair in there?!?" All said in an Asian accent, to boot.

My tech said something funny and we all laughed and I said I would put it on tumblr. Her response was: "Uh, you guys! Now I can be tumblr famous! Flips hair!" And then she flipped her hair. Somehow her saying and acting out "flips hair" was funnier than the original quote and we all forgot what she said.
