Hmmm.... I even know how to give shots and I still go in for my vet to give the shots to my pups. When I worked as a vet tech I gave shots, changed bandages, took out stitches, counted white bood cells, developed x-rays, helped in surgery, ran the oxygen, and well... you name it I did most of work needed... including reception work and kennel work: bathed cats and dogs, yep - all of it!
Here I am in my 20s with my first yorkie (on the left) and a patient/friend yorkie on the right (wolly coated). This was a loooong time ago. Ahhh... to be young again! |
In the beginning I too took them in for vaccines. However, the vet taught me how, as did my mentor......And when you have a litter of 3, 4 or 5 pups.....I'd rather put the money into the more expensive stuff....like testing.
