Simply put.... everytime I would see an animal that has been neglected or worse yet...abused intentionally or out of shear ignorance or stupidity, I would have to refrain from hurting some one. No doubt I would be arrested time and time again for assault on an idiot.
I have to start kicking myself every time I got to the sale barns and want to buy up all of these poor animals... why just today, I bought a cow.....yes a cow, that has had at least one calf, from the sale that was tiny, a mere 500 plus pounds. and although not emeciated... is on the skinny side for sure....who in the right mind would breed an animal so small and so young? I know it is not a miniature anything..it's head is way out of purportion...cant even guess what t is at the moment.
ok, I paid like 35 cents a pound for it..a grand total of 200 bucks.... and it will have a far better life here, I hope..starting with a period of time in our hospital barn.
Yes i am a fool for buying it, but a much lesser fool then the idiot who put it in this way. Just call me a sucker..
But this is why, I cannot be a vet........
To Vicky and all of the other vets out there....my hats off to you! :cboy:
