Amy Blake was due to have her
baby in just a few days, but that didn’t keep her from coming to Children’s
Fairyland to see our equines – two donkeys and one miniature horse – having
their teeth filed. “Of course I said yes!” she said.
And that is how last Wednesday,
the extremely pregnant Amy – who is a dentist for humans, and is married to Fairyland’s
facilities manager, Nick Mitchell – found herself observing the work of Billy
Liskey, equine dental technician. He was happy to have the company because, he
said, he likes to explain his job—and to show off the $30,000 in equipment he’s
invested in his practice.
