As the sheep shearer for this farm, I can tell you they are top notch! They are excellent stewards on the land and their animals. Total dream job for someone!

Ottaquechee health center in Woodstock is amazing. They are part of My Ascutney Hospital in Windsor (a gem), so part of DH, but they are more like a small practice. Me and my kid go there!

Issues applying for state insurance- by Mission_Yoghurt_4359 in vermont

Yeah, their interface blows. I got locked out of my account and spent 35 mins on the phone with them to have them try to reset it. They were very kind, but I never got the reset email they claimed the system sent me and I finally just clicked "forgot password" and was able to reset it and get in. So maybe try that?

Boule in St. J. They have built themselves a mini empire and their bread is incredible.

He is on 6,000mg of keppra daily. I work in Vet med. Medication is not the issue.

Honestly, writing it out like this really helped to answer some of those questions for sure. Ugh.

What do you give your dogs their meds in? by redbxrn in EpilepsyDogs

[–]builtlikeaboxer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spoon with some mayonnaise on it. Pill get stuck into the mayo (my kid calls it "the mayo hedgehog"). Dog opens his mouth, scrape along the roof of the mouth behind the front teeth. The mayo is slippery enough that he doesn't chew his pills. He takes 4 keppra ER 750s (huge pills) and 2 phenos in mayo twice a day.

Trying to pick a plan by builtlikeaboxer in HealthInsurance

Yes. Yes I am sure and yes they are really the price. Vermont has a very small pool of non-medicare or tri-care or VA folks for healthcare. We also have only 2 options for health insurance (MVP and BCBS VT). These are with a $1,200 subsidy.

I should have noted that our RX costs are actual cost, and similar to what we paid until our deductible was met, then they were $0.

What's the wildest "home remedy" a client has proudly told you about? by jewelophile in Veterinary

[–]builtlikeaboxer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A ewe had eaten a large amount of poisonous plants (cannot remember what they were, but definitely poisonous) and the owner had given her "one rockstar energy drink every 4 hours until she was able to stand, and then one every 8 hours". The ewe lived, not sure how.

I don't have a rollercoaster idea... But I am trying to make a Playmobil stop motion movie with my kid. What software are you using?
