  13. Facts i learnt when I was at the Oamaru Clinic. #When you put any animal down you give it twice as much as you would if you were putting it to sleep. #You have got to talk to the animal so it will calm down and then it will be quiet. #You are not allowed to pull the animal if you are taking it somewhere you have got to make it walk. #You have got to ring up and say you need your animal to come in you can’t just go to the vets and then ask because they might not have enough space. #If you are over 18 you are allowed in the X-ray or if you are under 18 you have to go out for the X-ray because it sometimes gives you a shock. #In the summer dogs swim more often which creates a warm moist ear environment ideal for infections, and grass seed problems are common. #You have to treat the animal with respect and act like it is a person.

  14. Qualifications If you want to be a vet nurse you have to have a national certificate in veterinary nursing or a national diploma in vet nursing
