I'm working hard for my presentation "1.Aid Class for Pet Owners" and Clare has to help me.

Today we created a video "How to apply a paw bandage":



Please apologize my horrible accent. I tried to keep my mouth shut but couldn't help to start to chatter.

I didn't take any pictures.

Last time when I published the video about the sheep trial (http://youtu.be/mbLJYvSrmlw) I received an email from an upset person, so this time I will not hurt the feelings of anybody.

A hand raised lamb was brought to me. The owner thought it might have aspirated some milk and is now suffering from lung infection. But a quick look and it was 100% clear: tetanus, the body stiff like a saw-horse. I tried everything - administered antibiotics and muscle relaxants, drove 150 km to purchase antiserum, tube-fed him ... But despite all efforts he died in the morning (choked on his own saliva).

The reason he acquired tetanus: last week his tail and part of his skin was cut off and became infected. It was stinking like hell. An awful procedure.

Remember? Last year? Miss Piggy came into our life.


Now she is part of a new fundraising campaign:
