This Vet Had to Call the Cops After an Equine Birth Like No Other

Hearing the Sirens

Ben’s heart raced as the vet paused, unable to detect a heartbeat. He locked eyes with the vet, his mind flooded with unanswered questions. Fear gripped him—he braced for the worst, expecting to lose both his beloved horse, Felicia, and her unborn foal. But the vet surprised him. Instead of delivering bad news, he set down the ultrasound machine and suggested they step outside

Confused, Ben followed, his legs feeling like lead. As they left the stables, the distant wail of sirens pierced the air. Ben froze, his thoughts spinning. What was going on? Was he in conflict? The unexpected turn of events left him reeling. He glanced back at Felicia, still standing in her stall, and wondered if the sirens were connected to her condition. The uncertainty weighed heavily on him as he tried to piece together the chaos unfolding around him.
