Today Pip and Mist went to the vet for kennel cough and Pip also had his booster. They have always enjoyed going to the vets, lots of new smells and other animals to meet. Tails wagging they pulled OH and Eils to the door, Pip jumped at the handle and barged in
Being a typical boarder collie, Pip didn't like the fact I went to reception alone and made a couple of gentle wuffs. Mist couldn't care less, there were bags of food beside her to be investigated
All was well, tails werex wagging until a dog emerged from a consulting room, Pip went 'off on one' to coin a phrase from my lot, so embarrassing
We only had to wait a few minutes until we were called, as soon as they saw the vet, they were off, wagging and excited. Now they really like this vet and were all over her in seconds
Last time we went she sat on the floor with them having cuddles However this time it all went a bit down hill for Pip
first he had a wee on the door
and then as the vet was trying to listen to his chest, he growled
so it was decided he needed a muzzle on
Mist, while this palaver was going on, was licking his nose, which makes the kennel cough vaccine a little difficult
Once it was all over, he was his normal loving self again, I was
so embarrassed. It was now Mists turn and what did she do? She lay on her back, legs in the air, wanting a tickle
that position is perfect for kennel cough vaccine except she was under the examining table and the vet had to join her
Needless to say, I was in need of a strong cuppa when we got home
