O: *without dog, ofc* I have this 8-week old puppy who threw up worms yesterday. He is drinking cow's milk which is very sweet so that's probably why he has them. It must be the same as with children, they have worms when they eat lots of sweets, right?

Hi! Do you know if any free online resources for learning to be a vet tech? I haven't started college yet, and I'm doing and internship under a vet next year, so I want some knowledge under my belt for when I do. Love your blog :D

I have a 1.5 yo Bernese mtn dog patient with 8% hematocrit and literally no one in a 300 km radius has any packed RBC or even whole blood available, I don't have any donors lined up, or blood bags or blood group tests if I were to find anyone for a donation...
