A visit to the vet by happypat

A visit to the vet

Lydia & I took Gus to the vet this morning. He came in the other morning limping & with a sore side. They thought he had caught it on some barbed wire but when the vet shaved his side the sore bit was a very neat round hole so what it was is a mystery. Two injections later & a lighter pocket & we took him home.
He does not like being in the car!!

Three good things:
1. Two very sweet whippets who would not be parted at the vets.
2. Lydia told me that the vet nurses light a candle if someone’s beloved pet is being put to sleep.
3. Harry has been & strimmed Cathy & Garth’s edges & I had my feet done!
He’s so sweet. I hope he will be okay!

He was as good as gold with the vet, just the journey was trial to him. Thank you for your concern!

@sarah19 Ha ha aren’t I just!

Sounds as if poor Gus might have been shot! I has happened. I would not let him out at nights! I can imagine the noise in the car if Gus did not like to ride!

@maggiemae We thought that too maggie but the vet said not, he felt all over for pellet but no bruising which would indicate being shot. You’re right about the noise, lots of wowing.
May 18th, 2019  
I would have thought a pellet gun too. Hope he feels better soon.

Awe - poor sweet baby - hope he is better soon.

I guess you will never know what happened. Bless him, hope he is bright as a button again soon.
May 19th, 2019  
Poor Gus! If only he could talk! I hope he recovers fully soon.
May 19th, 2019
