This Sunday we did as most people do.. waited in line with our little ones in crates and shopping cart to get the second set of shots.. The line (this time) luckily wasn't as long.. perhaps it was because it was almost lunch? Humm...
Well, ironically, the little ones witnessed a distressed young puppy getting a shot.. (screaming..for quite sometime and just in front of them..) I thought oh boy.. they are going to learn by example.. and so I started talking to them as they were waiting telling them.. oh it's going to be okay.. (Mind, yes, they are not human..but I wanted to cover all bases!) So I talked to them and now it is their turn.. I meet the veterinarian, and hand to her my 3 forms..with all their names and the list of shots to be administered.. They are 3 months old now.. And today, they are getting de-wormed and their second set of parvo shots.
As we arrive to the front of the line, the veterinarian suggests that we go in order of the names.. (luckily.. I wrote them in correct order.. Top crate first with Carter, Mozart and Hershey..
She calls the first and asks me to open it's mouth for the de-wormer.. I was shocked to hear her ask for the mouth.. I don't know what I expected, but Mozart was first. Mouth (de-wormer), then shot (parvo).. No screaming.. Next Carter, same.. No Scream.. No anything.. They were so good.. We went through the entire line of babies, and they were all good.. No whining or squirming or anything.. they were all good.. I am proud of my little troopers.. :)
Second set of shots accomplished~
