Took the three puppers Saturday morning to get their rabies shots at the $5 clinic that the Humane Society hosts once a month or so. They all did fantastic. It was kind of funny, though, because 'big bad Jak' was the only one that cried. LoL I had him and Gypsy on leashes, and left little bit (Jessie) in the car because I can't handle all three of them at the same time, and because there were several people there with little dogs that were NOT under control and I didn't want to have to deal with Jessie telling them off (ie: trying to eat them). Instead, I brought out the two better ambassadors.
:lol:
Anyway, it was held inside the old animal control building, so I took Gypsy and Jak back to the room we were told to go in, and the vet came back to do their shots and both dogs were all butt wags, of course, with Jak licking and doing the shepherd whine, too. So the vet and the girl whose job it was to hold the dogs' heads got some lovin's and then the vet gave the shots. Jak was first, and he was happily licking the holder girl's face, and when the vet stuck him, he yelped, but didn't miss a lick! :lol: When he yelped, though, Gypsy figured out what was going on, and so she decided she didn't want any of it and crawled under my chair! Silly girl! :lol: She was just fine with her shot, though, once we pulled her out from under the chair. She just laid there, and as soon as the vet pulled out the needle again, she went back to butt wagging.
Then we went outside to put them up, and the vet just followed me to the car to do Jessie, who also did just fine. My big bad boy is just a big wuss! :lol:
I was kind of ticked, because Jak and Gypsy's shots 'expired' in November, and there was a clinic in November, but it was in another county and I figured they'd have another one before now, but they didn't. THEREFORE, I was told that I had to bring them back again in a year because it had been longer than 15 months since their last one. :roll:
