Our trip to the Vet

Last week I took all 3 of our dogs to the vet for their annual exams. They range in weight from 45# to 75#. The girls are friendly and like interact with people. Digger needs time to warm up to people and rarely approaches anyone unfamiliar.

Everyone was easy to weigh because they're all familiar with going to the scale and sitting. After weighing in we were escorted to the biggest exam room. I let them all wander around and drag their leashes. Digger investigated until other people started coming into the room. Then he decided it was safer to lie under the bench behind my legs. Candy, as always, was nervously panting the entire time.

They were all vaccinated, received a physical exam, and a blood draw. Candy allowed me to hold her mouth closed each time the veterinarian listened with the stethoscope on each dog. Digger came out from under the bench to allow an exam. All exams were uneventful.

As we were ready to leave we received a comliment from the vet. He said, "You have very well-mannered dogs. I think this is the first time I've ever had 3 big dogs in here and actually been able to do 3 exams."
Way to go guys!
