To those with more than one dog

[cloverfdx]

One or two . My Mum and i have been in with 5 dogs before, it was a nightmare .

[gemini9961]

I have taken in 2 at once. Grant and Maggie and I have to wait outside since Grant likes to bark the entire time. I prefer just one but Grant and Maggie are due at the same time.

Haven't tried with all three. Freckles and Dudley go to their vet, Finn to his. I'm sure I could take the three of them, though. Little ones in one hand, Finn in the other.

[Pawsitive Thinking]

I take mine in one at a time unless hubby is with me

One at a time for me, Pam. Katie does just fine, but Tori doesn't like going to the vet. She does what she is supposed to do but is also always trying to hide under the chairs and constantly has to be pulled back out. Once we pull her out she will lay there like a good girl and get her shot or whatever the doc needs to do but then it is right back under the chairs. She is such a goof.

I have taken both dogs before & it wasn't too bad, but I really prefer
taking them one at a time. Smokey & Maggie are both wildly happy to
go inside the Vets office, but that wears off after the first 5 mins.

We take all five at the same time, we get loads of discounts that way

One time I had to do it by myself and had to cram all five in my TINY car, it was a sight in itself, lol. But my mom and I usually go. I don't take them all in the waiting room, I'll sit there and when they're ready for us I go out in the car and usually make a couple trips and lead them straight to the room. And then the techs help us take them all out.

[Cinder & Smoke]

While Bowser was with us, we did THREE at a time!!

Cinder "liked" Doc Mike from Day 1; when we "added" Smokey; he was at first
terrified of MEN!
Cinder went along for company, and Doc worked with Smokey on the first couple of visits.
Soon Doc was moved onto to Smokey's "Favorite Folks" list, but Cinder & Smoke continued to
have combined Vet visits on a Y-Thingy.

Along came Bowser ... why change a good thing?
I remember a few eyeballs got kinda BIG when ALL THREE of the Amigos
dashed in the Clinic door hooked up on their Three-way Y-Thingy the first time ...
But White Coat visits always went pretty well.
There was often a <GASP> in the waiting room if someone had come in while we were
all in the exam room ... THREE Dawgs dancing out, all tied together, must not be a
super-common sight in Vet waiting rooms.

The only "problems" we ever had were Cinder-related.
"The Girls" sometimes "fumbled" the hook-up between the Y-Thingy and the exam-table tether ...
Cinder never misses an opportunity ... turned loose, she'll go see the sights.
She's managed to find her way into the Recovery Room more than once ...
Lil Miss Sunshine sayin "HI" to all the surgical recovery patients. Doc always knew where to look!

Last visit she got seperated from the other two and found a NEW place ...
Doc stores the Prescription Food up on the scond floor of the remodeled "house" that's the Clinic.
"HEY ... where's Cinder??"
"Oh ... ya know, I think I heard her goin UPstairs! ... CINDER!"
Doc suggested she might wanna go up and CHECK a lil harder ...
Sure 'nuff ... "Here she is ... *sniffin* the cat food!"

I guess now that we're back to only Two ... ... it won't be so hard to
keep track of 'em ...

Miss ya, Bowz!!

I tried to take the 2 goldens together and it was horrible!!! Gracey wouldnt sit still and was running to everyone and Chance is afraid of the vet so I have to drag him and try to carry him (he is 80 pounds). The only good dog at the Vets is Sandy my husky/shepard mix. I see some people at the vets with 3 dogs at a time, I wish my dogs would listen enough at the vets so I could take them all at once it would save alot of time

Miss ya, Bowz!!

Phred *tears* .....

Pam, I take my two together. Of course Captain is a social butterfly, and Ruby will go wherever he goes ....
They are pretty good together - of course if I get another one, I might have to ask Phred about the 3 way tie thingy!
