Well first time Shen took a dog to the vet on his own. In all actuality I'm surprised he got around to it. I asked him to have her tested for all worms because she hadn't had her flea drops yet this year and to have her get a fecal because she has had to be treated for worms each time we've taken her in. Good news is all worm tests came back clear for the first time ever this time...
Bad news is... (drum roll please)
I told him I only wanted her to have her rabies vacc for now unless the heartworm and/or fecals came back positive and then I probably would have liked to have a titers done in that case...I would have put her on heartguard which is the only thing I've ever had my dogs on. It's the only thing I feel comfortable with and he has been familiar with it because he has given the dogs their heartguard numerous times before. I told him the only vac I definately wanted given was Rabies.
Well guess what happened? Any takers? I got a call saying they gave her like 5 shots (actually his words were "Like 8 shots" but he was exaggerating. He couldn't tell me which ones) including Rabies and .... duh duh da daaaaaaaaaa.... none other than the dreaded Proheart. I am soooo encredibly irritated. I just keep thinking I should have just waited till they came home. I knew it when I told him she needed to go in because she was already late getting in this year.
I'm proud of him for taking her in and everything seeing how things have been over the last year. I probably wasn't clear enough with him anyway but I knew.... The voice in my head was screaming... just WAIT till they come home!!! WAIT... Why didn't I wait!!!! I'm more mad at myself right now than anything.
I should have just waited....
