Winter may not hate going to the vets. If the vet and the techs make a big fuss over her and keep her visit upbeat, she might not hate going there. My Killian is a constant visitor to the vets office and he still has no problem going there. In fact, he loves his lady vet. Even if I have to leave him there (which is often), he goes willingly. Good luck to Winter and I hope the x-rays are fine!!
