Just Past the City Limits: What's that, Doc?

By Mark Parker
Farm Talk (Parsons, Kan.)

The Top 10 things you don’t want to hear from your veterinarian:

10. I figure, so what if I graduated at the bottom of my class - I still graduated, right?

9. Before I opened this practice I specialized in gerbils.

8. I can’t quite make out the label on this medicine but if memory serves me ...

7. Maybe he’s just asleep, ya think?

6. OK. The next time a heifer’s coming through you might want to give me a heads-up before I grab the clamps.

5. You wouldn’t happen to have a whole bunch of Pepto-Bismol would you?

4. Sorry about that but he’s a steer now.

3. I don’t have a thing scheduled all day but I need to get back in time for Oprah.

2. What did you call them again? - Herefords?

1. Do you know anybody who tans hides?
