When we left the school in Kolding we headed to Arhus. Our host had three lovely boxers. We were surprised they are not on the restricted breed list in Denmark seeing as many muscle dogs are. We went to her sister’s graduation\/birthday party which was mostly family, and some friends. Graduations are very important in Denmark, and are highly celebrated. The graduate receives a hat with a colored stripe on it that matches their schooling, they will wear this hat whenever they chose for the average of one month. We went to a clinic in Fredericia where we saw a 10 month old cat who had been hit by a car, a 5 year old bulldog that was being neutered, and a dog that was injected with a small plastic chip with a slow release medication in it, to stop the reproductive hormones of the animal, so that the owner can see the temperament change in the animal for 6 months and then make the decision of whether or not they want to sterilize the animal. We also saw an ear hematoma that was drained and then had a sponge stitched to it to heal, we had never seen such a thing, although we heard that they do that in American clinics as well. We also saw an abstract art show on the beach in Arhus, and had a very interesting train ride back to Copenhagen. We will be departing soon. It has been a great trip!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
