The Vet

Today was Daisy's biannual Vet visit. She is always happy to leave the house and today was not exception. But once she realized where we were going and when we pulled up to the Vet building she started to whimper. It's like dragging dead weight when going inside. I really don't understand her fear since the Vet hasn't been a horrible place for her. She occasionally gets shots but that is the extent of it. Everything went well, she lost some weight, which is good. The only thing the doctor said is that she'll need some dental work. And with dental work the knock out the dog so they had to do some blood test to make sure everything would be okay with the anasteshia. Well for that they had to take blood and would be doing in the back. So the vet picked Daisy and carried her way. The look on her face was of sheer panic and confusion on why we were giving her away. About ten minutes later the tech person comes back not looking too happy and handing us Daisy back. He mentioned that they will be having a dental sale on Feb and we should wait to make our appointment then. We really like this Doctor. We were good to go and I went to pay the bill. $450.00. I almost fell over.. our normal visits are about $100.00 so I was not expecting this. Oh well she's our little girl and her health is very important. So now we have to wait till Feb to make an appointment for her dental work.. which I know she is just going to love.
