Dennis Is Super Psyched
By Scott Simpson
Here's a secret about the world of large animal veterinarians: until now, big scales have been expensive and poorly built. So it's fallen to the vet's assistant, or "footsman," to weigh the animals. They're called "footsmen" because they determine the weight of the animal by--you guessed it--having it step on their foot.Last week, we had to weigh a massively bloated dairy cow. After coaxing it up onto my assistant Dennis' right foot, Dennis (who is usually very reliable) peppered his estimate with so many harsh expletives that it was impossible to obtain an accurate reading.Thank goodness, then, for the PS1000. Salter Brecknell bring accurate, pain-free weight measurement to budget-conscious vets, and we couldn't be more pleased. Dennis is happiest of all: he'll no longer have to practice his yogic pain breathing, swallow enough Advil to fill a goldfish bowl, or search through thrift stores for tasteful clown shoes.(He does need a new job though.)

Too small for the serious camel enthusiast
By Scott McC
The max weight of 1000lb is thoroughly inadequate for larger dromedary and bactrian camels. Just save yourself the trouble and get the 2000lb model.

By Smashie
You know that your mama is so fat that when she sits around the house, she really sits around the house. But for some applications, the mama-house volume ratio just isn't precise enough. Enter the Salter Brecknell PS1000 Veterinary 1000lb Scale!Sure, you already know that your mama is so fat that when her beeper goes off people think she's backing up. But if you need to know exactly how much counterweight you need in your trebuchet to launch her over the walls of that enemy fortress, you need to know how much she actually weighs. And your bathroom scale ain't gonna cut it!Winch her up and set her down with confidence - this baby can take her! Does your mama weigh more than a llama? Or does your mama weigh less than a llama? Forget the guesswork: find out for sure. (Llama not included.)If you're satisfied just knowing that your mama is so fat her BMI is measured in acres, then this scale isn't for you. But if you need the kind of precision that'll get the attention of the folks at the Guinness Book, get a Salter Brecknell. Is she the fattest person ever used as a human bowling ball, or is she second best? With a PS1000, you'll know if you need to keep fattening her up, or if you're ready to make history.
