You go to place a jugular catheter on a donkey… and suddenly a “routine” job isn’t routine anymore.

They’re not just small horses. If you treat them that way, things get awkward fast.

Thicker cutaneous coli, smaller and more mobile veins, and pain that’s easy to miss because they just stand there and cope. I’ve learned to slow down, adjust doses, and read the quiet signs more carefully.

Miss it, and you risk under-treating pain or struggling through basic procedures.

Adapt early, and they’re actually great patients.

If you’re seeing more donkeys in practice, it’s worth building confidence in these differences. Explore our lecture programs via the link in our bio.
