[QUOTE="Carrie, post: 462240, member: 361"] Msscamp, She tried, but was unable to get a snare around the head. I even tried since my arms were a bit longer. All I could get a hold of was a bit of skin on the neck. Though we were pretty sure it wouldn't help, we finally decided to take the legs off (sorry this is so graphic/gross) but the vet lost the scalpel blade in the leg during the attempt. The next disaster would have been someone getting cut on the blade now lodged in an infected cow, so at that pont, we agreed to call it quits. The whole thing was a train wreck - start to finish - including when I called the office, the the receptionist sent the vet to the wrong farm (same last name, 25 miles away). The whole night just seemed to get worse. We've had this vet out before and liked her, but not sure I'd use her again. [/QUOTE]
