A monitor shows a radiographic image of the horse’s limb.

The horse stands calmly while Brianne uses a tool to shape the hoof. Sunlight filters through the wooden rafters above.

"A close-up photo of veterinary nurse Chesala Durnal smiling brightly, as she lovingly embraces a black dog with its tongue out, looking joyful."
For #VetTechWeek, we asked Veterinary Nurse Chesala Durnal what advice she would offer to a future Veterinary Nurse.
My advice would be to never turn down a new opportunity. I would have never pictured myself in emergency and critical care medicine, but I gave it a shot and haven't looked back.
