The Dog wore himself out on the trip to the Vet.<\/p>\nThe Dog wore himself out on the trip to the Vet.<\/p>\n
It was time for his yearly checkup and a booster shot.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s pissed off at me. In part because I had to scold him a little about his behavior, and I suppose he feels a little betrayed. He\u2019s dozing and ripping some real stinkers of farts.<\/p>\n
Thank goodness it\u2019s warm enough that I can have the windows open. That is, until the pot head across the street lights up the first of many bongs of pot for the day.<\/p>\n
I took him on a two mile hike before we went to the Vet and he was still “crazy dog\u201d.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve got to find some high density foam that I can lay across the back seat so that he can ride in the car comfortably. He refuses to lay down because he doesn\u2019t quite fit in the bucket back seat wells and the little tray in the back seat makes a hump that he doesn\u2019t like. I\u2019m thinking some thick foam might solve the problem by smoothing the area out and not be too easily compressed. He doesn\u2019t like feeling as though he\u2019s sinking into anything. Unless it\u2019s snow.<\/p>\n
I like that he\u2019s curious and generally sweet. He loves people and most dogs, he just wants to play. Sometimes his manners with other dogs get misunderstood as aggression but that, in most cases is cleared up pretty quickly if the other dog is more mellow. The only aggression I\u2019ve seen is if dogs appear to be attacking us as a unit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In other words, if dogs run at us barking and snapping.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I think that part of the issue was he could smell other dogs had been in the waiting room, and could hear other people that he couldn\u2019t see.<\/p>\n
Once he got to see other people in the office, he stopped whining and panting then gave them greetings and said hi in his sweet loving way.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s got a lot of energy, he\u2019s curious in a healthy way, and he\u2019s exhausting sometimes. I think once I\u2019ve confirmed that he\u2019s not having any reactions to the booster. We\u2019re both going to take a nap.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve got stuff I need to do, but we\u2019ve both been going full tilt since 6am. Believe me, 71 pounds of high energy dog can take it out of you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
