Good Day at the Vet...

Prada had to go to the vet this morning for a heartworm test and a follow up fecal examination (she had hookworm last time she was there). She was taken back by a vet tech and as I sat out in the waiting area I heard ear piercing yelps. Soon after the vet tech brought her out to me and said I would have to wait for the doctor to draw the blood for the heartworm test because he can do it much easier with hyper dogs. (My dog, hyper? Never!) So we waited as I choked Prada continuously on her leash because she wanted to get nice and close to the weird old cat lady that was also there. Finally they came back out to get her again and this time she was gone less than two minutes. They said it would only be a few minutes for the results so we decided to wait. Both tests came back negative (woohoo!) and Prada got to her some of her favorite words again - "You wanna go for a ride in the car?" We've home for probably a grand total of less than ten minutes now and she is sprawled out passed out on my bed from sheer exhaustion.

I'm still struggling to get past the word "fecal."

So how much did Prada weigh this time?

And a fecal exam? You would have heard me yelping too. That right there is more evidence that I am nowhere near ready for pets.
