IDAHO FALLS – EastIdahoNews.com is highlighting different careers and today, I’m Workin’ It with the vet techs at Snake River Animal Shelter.
I spent some time with Stephanie Geraughty and Erica Didden, learning how to restrain a dog for paw clippings and other grooming tasks. I also helped prepare and sterilize instruments for surgery. I cleaned a dog with antiseptic to get it ready for a spay/neuter procedure.
Watch it in the video above.
