A letter to our veterinary clients (sarcastic)

[Pawsitive Thinking]

Thanks for the chuckle - the only trouble I've had at my vets is when I tried to pay with my Chelsea season ticket (he is a Tottenham supporter but otherwise a very nice man)

This is just our annual shots vet. They charge the very least for everything. The staff is very good to make up for doctor invisible. Its a county low-cost vet, so we can't expect much.

Around here we don't call those country vets (even our country vets take time to talk to the clients and examine the pet) we call those vaccination clinics, usually run once or twice a year out of the parking lot at the humane society. Although most of those only have one assistant if they are lucky to find a volunteer.

Grant likes to bark at the vet's so we sit outside and wait because he's such a PIA there. If I tell the office I will be outside or in the car they will come get me when it's my appointment time.

We have several clients that do this for various reasons including barking. I have no problem going out and letting someone know we have a room available for them.

What bugs me (and should have been in the 'letter') is the ones whose dogs bark loud and constant to the point our receptionist can't hear the phone, and the client gets VERY ticked off and put out when you have ask them to wait outside until we're ready.
