April Post: Treating a Goat

This Saturday when I went to my mentorship, an owner brought in a young goat because he wasn't able to walk due to being lethargic. It is really interesting that my mentor not only takes of dogs and cats but other animals like lizards, chickens, goats, pigs and snakes. I am glad I get to see my mentor treat exotic animals because I get to learn more that I could explain in my final presentation. We treated the goat by giving him fluids and a vitamin called 'Nutri cal' that provides nutrients that an animal needs. It was great treating the goat and I hope to help my mentor treat other exotic animals in the future.
