Students from Coeur d’Alene High School spent one day of their Christmas vacation observing a spay surgery. They are in the BioMedical Science class and attended on a volunteer basis. They were shown the surgery process from start to finish with explanations along the way. The students were given the opportunity and encouraged to ask questions. All members of our staff enjoy helping students learn, our groomer volunteered her pet for the surgery. We encourage teachers to contact us to see what projects and opportunites we can offer to further education.

Watching closely while pet was prepped for the surgery.

One lucky student was allowed to scrub in.
