This morning Stanley had a check up appointment at the vet at 8:30. I was told to have him fast for 2 hours prior to his appt. He was NOT happy about it... and he let me know it from 6:30am-8:15am. He howled and howled and every time I took a step he sprinted to his food. Poor guy (though he had all night to eat as much as he wanted!).
Stanley was a good boy, a little nervous but good considering strangers were poking and prodding and sticking things up his you know what! They even drew blood.
Not my usual outgoing self... hiding behind mom's purse.
Unfortunately Stanley got a bad report on his teeth
(go figure, there's only 74567465376528 dentists in our family!).
The doc said she didn't see anything too terrible but for his age it wasn't good :( She also said she has had people who are dentist scale their own pets teeth...hmmmm.
I see some of this in Dr. Christian's future:
Don't forget the tongue!
I was bummed about his teeth (if you get them cleaned you have to put them to sleep, etc.), but I was delightfully surprised when they asked "Red or white?" at the checkout counter. Yep. They gave me wine. Score!
Not a bad parting gift for a trip to the vet. |
Stanley tried to convince me it was for him.
That is all. Have a great weekend everyone!!
