It started out to be such a great day. Mom was up early and we went outside. I wanted to play in the puddles but Mom asked me to wait, so I did.
I was glad I listened because I got to go back to bed with Mom and Dad for an hour. Mom's right. I do take up more room now.
Then Dad got up early for a Saturday. I should have sensed something was afoot. When Mom put my special training collar on me, I thought we were going to class, but nooooo. I heard Dad say "vet" and I knew.
More needles. I do not like needles. I don't care how much beef jerky the vet gives me, I do not like needles. I don't like them cutting my nails, either, but the girl was quick.
The good news is I don't have to have any more shots for a whole year! The vet petted me and said I looked good. I looked at Mom and rolled my eyes. Mom knows I'm a handsome lad.
Once we were back home, she let me off the leash and I ran for the water puddle! It was worth the wait! I splashed around like a big dog and made Mom laugh. I am a Labrador Retriever. We like water. Mom didn't even fuss me for dripping on the floor.
But what's this "snip-snip" everyone is talking about? I don't get it.
Water puddles make everything better, uh? So glad you're good to go without needles for a whole year! As for the snip-snip... well, just don't worry too much about it. You'll go to sleep and when you wake up, you'll get cuddles and treats and you'll nap all you want. You won't notice a thing....
ReplyDeleteAuntie Roxy! You would fib to your nephew?? I think he'll notice something is missing. He's interested enough in it, the heathen.
