Charlie playing with the twins, Jason (L) and Kaci (R)
RV trip in July '09
While we were waiting, we sat next to "Sweetie", a pretty gray and white cat. She had a collar on, which suggested that she had had surgery recently. Then a very friendly Boxer, named "Jake" came in. His little stub of a tail wagged continuously while his owner signed in. All of us were seeing the Oncologist, Dr. Phillips.
Then a lady came walking up with a little Jack Russell terrier named "Scooter". She was checking out. "Scooter" had her right front leg all bandaged up in a cast. His owner saw "Sweetie" and "Taz" in their kennels and said "Jack Russell's aren't supposed to like cats," and then proceeded to let "Scooter" look into both kennels. Well, "Scooter" actually wasn't aggressive towards the cats, but when I looked in to see if "Taz" was okay, he had shrunk all the way back into his kennel. Poor little "Sweetie" had completely turned around and was trying to hide her head, but the big round collar wouldn't allow much movement.
A couple of lady's came in with an emergency case. They had a little Boston Terrier, named "Winston", who had been vomiting uncontrollably. A technician came up quickly and carried "Winston" back to see a doctor. Not sure what was going on with him, but we know the feeling of going into one of those little rooms to consult with the doctor about one of our "kids". The only thing scarier is when I have to go into one of those little rooms and wait for MY doctor to come in!
A pretty little Italian Greyhound named "Lady" walked by, on her way out; An Irish Setter named "Carrot" got on the scales as a huge striped Maine Coon cat, named "Harry", meowed his way down the hallway. We miss so much when Ayden comes right out to get "Tazzy"!
It's just another day at VSH......more later.
