Not amused ! by beryl

Not amused !

Alfie not amused and feeling sorry for himself after his annual booster and kennel cough shots at the Vets !! This is the annual ritual - Alfie looks spritely as he gets in the car ,arrive at the vets -- the tail drops and lags behind in the carpark and pulls back as we enter the door , Suddenly heavy breathing uncontrollable shaking , quivering ,and dribbling takes place throughout the visit , Poor Alfie is so distressed ! He doesn't want to sit on the table , the injection went fine , but the kennel cough spray up is nose is always disastrous -I advised the young vet to muzzle Alfie - and when she saw that she could not manage without she went and got the muzzle -- and all was accomplished !! Alfie was spent , his ego hurt and on arrival home he simply flopped on his bed .!!
Poor Alfie I hope he soon recovers and back to his old self again.

Aww, poor guy - just an exhausting trip. I'll bet he was thrilled to get home!

Poor Alfie, I feel for him...I just had a flu shot in one arm & my Whooping Cough booster in the other arm.....

Oh dear - & interesting. Poor Alfie. Jinks also hates the vet's and tries to run to the exit when the consulting room door opens but once home it's all forgotten!

Oh, poor Alfie...I had to laugh though, you just describe Mac at his appointment last Monday.

Poor Alfie. So hard when you can'r explain what they are having done and why!

I feel pity for poor Alfie...

Nice shot and hoping for a speedy recovery.
April 27th, 2016  
Oh dear poor Alfie. He is looking very sorry for himself.
April 27th, 2016  
Aww, poor Alfie. Cute shot, though.
April 27th, 2016  
Awwww, poor Alfie...sweet capture
April 27th, 2016  
Great capture

Oh poor old Alfie, hope he's getting over it now. Thanks for all the lovely comments and favs on my pics over the past few years; they are very much appreciated. Look after yourself Beryl, you are an inspiration to me with your courage and determination in the face of adversity. Take care.

A lovely capture. Fav. I recognise the distress Alfie suffers from. My old dogs were just the same, luckily Daisy loves a trip to the vet.... she usually gets a little titbit
April 27th, 2016  
So sorry for poor Alfie. Hope he soon will be the old one he was before.
April 27th, 2016  
Aah! He's lovely.

Poor Alfie, my dog Rosie feels his pain, she too will have to suffer this annual trip in about 7 weeks time and I'm already dreading it!!! Why did they come up with such a ridiculous way to administer the kennel cough vaccination! Good shot, i'm sure he will recover very soon.

Poor Alfie, it doesn't sound like much fun, hope he feels better soon.
April 27th, 2016  
Oh dear Bery I feel for both of you. Nothing worse than taking a beloved dog to the vets for routine stuff when they hate it so. Bet you were dreading it! He look completely frazzled! Has to be done though & it will be forgotten by tonight! Nothing like a corduroy cushion to sit on!
April 27th, 2016  
poor little adorable Alfie! A visit to the vet is not his cup of tea. Hope he is back to his normal jolly self soon
April 27th, 2016  
Poor Alfie - so hard for them to understand.
April 27th, 2016  
They don't like vets Beryl, lovely shot...Fav

Swweeeet Alfie! I recognize that pose in front of the window!
April 28th, 2016  
Oh poor Alfie. We had similar experiences with Betty although not quite so extreme.
April 28th, 2016  
Oh my, he is well & truly spent. Amazing how the memories work.
April 28th, 2016  
I know just how he feels
April 28th, 2016  
Poor Alfie. It's just impossible to explain to him that it's for his own good.
April 28th, 2016  
Oh poor Alfie. I've got to take Buddy for his in a few weeks !
