I love my vet!

We had an appointment for the Monster Dog™ at 4pm. We have to go after school so the daughter can hang onto him in the back seat or I'd never make it there in one piece.

First off, we got the expected reaction when we were dragged walked in. They couldn't believe it was the same dog they saw last spring. "Holy cow!" "Where's the puppy?" "Oh my god!" "Come look at this! Remember the little black shepherd mix?" (to one of the aides in the back.)

Then they asked, "What are you doing here? His shots aren't due until March."

I told them I knew that, but kept getting email notices about his other checkups - worms, etc. so I made the appointment. Plus, I was dying to know how much he weighs now. They convinced me to cancel the appointment so I wouldn't have to pay for an office call when I really didn't need one, and took my name off the email notices. I guess everyone else ignores them, so they were surprised to see me. *g*

They offered to weigh him while we were there as soon as the room was free, and then we got to see the vet.

"Holy cow!" (Here we go again, lol.) She talked to me off the record about his food and a couple of other things while we weighed him, and then also didn't charge me for an office visit.

You ready for this? 102 pounds.


She said to go ahead and keep him on the large breed puppy food. He likes it, he's not fat, and it will work until he's 2.

Did I say I love my vet? ♥
