I dropped Bassett off at the vet this morning to have her boarded while I'm away over the weekend. She was NOT impressed! I called this afternoon to check on her, and to see if she was going to need a chest drain. Good news - the vet thinks we can hold off for bit! The longer between each drain, the better. Anyway, Sue (the vet tech) said, "We are just letting her calm down for now. She's very cranky. Every time I walk by her cage she sticks her paw out, hits me a couple times, and growls" At first I thought, oh no she's clawing them! But no, she's just giving a few "I'm mad at you pats" and voicing her displeasure! That's my baby - back to her snotty self!!! Even Sue said, "this is the Bassett we know and love!!!"
