2 Blogs Here Today: Vets

How did this crew do? Only one didn't yelp loudly when the microchip went in. Who was it? You tell me.

2 of this crew sang to us part of the way to the vets. Do you know who? The rest including Raven's just was quiet. I think I am going to take them for a short ride in the car just so they know car rides do not mean shots and microchips. I want them to think of the car as a good thing. I need to find the time but that is my desire.

Everyone is healthy and was deemed really nice. They were impressed.

On the car ride home - silence even as we sat and waited for a 11 minute train to pass by. LOL I never realized they made the trains so long.

All and all a big success. My day is shot but we made it back and now I have 1 outstanding pertinent info for one of the dogs that must be sent as its one of the early go homers. Lots of work must be done before they depart.

What a truly oustanding crew this is -Misty's 1st and Raven's last. Thank you for allowing me to love them, get to know them and experience who they are - incredibly special each in their own unique way.

Words cannot express how much I dislike that they won’t let you accompany the patient in. Of all the stinky pandemic stuff, this has been the stinkiest for me.

Nathan has to be as 945 he was in bed but that is usual. I am just going upstairs now, I always do the last feeding of moms and pups before going upstairs so he has a 2 hour window to relax,

Sue: Me too and I will add not being able to have people meet their pup ahead of time really really bothers me. I so hate covid.

You and Nathan have done a phenomenal job with these pups! Your love and care and keeping us posted is beyond amazing. It is a lot of work and you make it look so easy. Covid sucks but someone you’ve managed to help us feel connected and part of the journey from the start. We are forever grateful! Have a great (hopefully restful) Mother’s Day Darlah 💕
