Day 4 & 5 - Burns Lake BC

Day 4:
This was a busy day in the clinic.  We had 10 dogs waiting for us when we arrived!  We got started as fast as we could and worked all day, and I think we would each say that we have done a great job. 
Our group of volunteers from the community showed up in force for us again today, which we appreciate so much.  Helping with the pets, bringing in food, even just chatting with us and asking questions - it really does mean a lot when community members are so willing to be a part of what we are doing.
A fun variety of dogs today - Chihuahua crosses and Great Danes.  Can't get much different than that!  There was one particulaly cute Dane puppy that needed a home, and he had one by the end of the day!
At the end we had 11 spays, 15 neuters, and another 13 vaccinations and deworming done. 

Day 5:
A slower day today - I think because people had been so aware of coming in early so they wouldn't be turned away. 
Today's totals were 8 spays, 4  neuters and another 13 vaccinations and dewormings.
We had to break down our lovely little clinic and pack it back into the bags and into cars to move across the lake into town.  Again, I have to say a big "thank you" to everyone who helped with the clean up! 
We'll be back at work on Saturday!
