[quote user="MissVetNurse"]Caution on this one, I won a stuffed pig at a carnival once and it was stuffed with hay.....and a spiders nest and I'm seriously arachnaphobic, I had to leave my house for a few days. They were EVERYWHERE![/quote]

OMG how scary urgh!!!! That's just reminded me of a dream i had last night (more of a nightmare actually)....Can't remember exactly what happened, but there were spider like things that were only averaged sized spiders but were killers....& they were EVERYWHERE! We were trying to stay away from them...but thinking about it now why on earth didn't we just squish them?! Hmm.

If all else fails a loosly clenched human fist looks a lot like a dogs foot, you can even get your cotton wool inbetween the toes(fingers)

RCVS use teddies from Wilkinsons for x-rays and stuff they'd prob be good for your bandaging? My friend had one she practiced on - and passed
