    Maggy and Lacy always got together,They do not like when they are seperated.

    Storm goes on his own,As well as Molly.

    Anna will be on her own,She got all her shots before she came home from her surgery.

    I am fortunate all my guys are well behaved at the vets office,But they are attention seekers,Lacy always wiggles her little butt around and everyone loves it.

    Same with my cats They are all seperate too,Summer is an expensive year for me all the animals are due between April through July for all there shots.

    I've taken the two in myself. They are small and I do believe tha is easier.

    I have taken 5 cats in myself; boy, I never realized what a difference those carriers make until I started reading this thread and considering the situation and possibilities!

    2 dogs would be my limit for one person to bring to the vets at one time. That's from personal experience & from observing others (as I work in a vets office). Any more than that & it just gets way to hectic.
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    Jenny has taken two at a time several times but the last time they all needed to go (updated rabies shots after the "incident") she and my son Kenneth took all four in at once (new puppy didn't need to go). They said no problem, everyone behaved just fine. They did get "looks" however when the herd of fairly large dogs all walked in together and started greating everyone

    Nova is such a bad dog (gosh do I love her though!) that it would be impossible for me to take any other dog with her. It was funny with the new vet office we went to before I left I took Konnor first and everybody was amazed. He healed, layed down on the floor and was a perfect gentlmen. He was an amazing example of how dog's should be!

    Then Nova had an apointment 2 hours later, I brought her in and shes slipping and slideing all over the floor, howling and pulling and doing circles around me. She was so bad that they instantly cleaned out a room and put us in it! Gosh was I embaressed. LOL.

    My dogs as well as my cats go one at a time. Their shot schedules are all at a different time of year anyways.

    The shelties go together. It's one of the only times they have collars and leashes on and I just put them on a coupler. I just make them lie down and stay in the waiting room.


    *Thanks Ashley*

    Simba and Kiara always go together - since they are both due at the same time.

    Nala and Mufasa are both due at seperate times, so the both of them will go solo.

    I have taken all three by myself. The hardest part of that is that Spot does not like the vet's office. He is fine with the vet and the techs and everyone, but he goes stir crazy waiting. I don't know if the smell reminds him of the shelter, or what, but he paces like crazy. I prefer not to take all 3 unless Ralph comes also. I have no issues taking 2 alone.
