BROWNIE FIELD TRIP



Lily had a field trip for Brownies yesterday. They went to a local veterinarian. It was really good and educational. They showed them all about how they examine an animal by demonstrating on a cat and showed them the underwater treadmill that a dog was working on-that was pretty cool. They got to pet a snake and a bearded dragon--they thought that was pretty awesome, too. They also showed them vials that had heartworms, fleas, ticks and other various parasites. You would think a bunch of 6/7 year old girls would be grossed out and going --EEEWWW. But they were actually very interested. Lily was telling us all about what she learned at dinner-I was surprised by how much she retained. Anyway-they all want to be vets when they grow up now. And they all went home wanting to adopt a dog!! NO WAY!!!
