OK everybody really needs to stop yelling at him now he had proof that she saw a vet and he was only trying to tell everyone how good she is doing now and everyone is still being mean about it. It would be different if he didnt have the proof so please just stop with the mean comments. I am happy Reggie is doing better :)
Anyone notice on that invoice that the vaccinations are all almost a year expired or am I the only one? Sorry can't help noticing things like that, reminds me of recieving faxed records at work, I'm trained to look for things like that to bring to the dr's attention. lol
I noticed that as well but thought better to keep my mouth shut.Quote:

Dogs are low cost, low maintenance when young. When they get old, that's when the Vets catch up on the revenue side. You really need a Reggie fund set up now via a part time job. Expenses are not going down in future years.

Interesting. I did a quick scan and it seems the 1 yr is favored as a booster if a vaccinated dog has come into contact with a rabid animal. Speculation here... it could be the 1 yr version evokes a faster ananestic response(?). Thus the preference for it in lasped vaccinations? I'll leave it to you to ask all your Vets at the office. ;)Quote:

Also found out that without the rabies tags (I gave up trying to keep them on), puppies are free game for the local dog catcher to pick up. Clover, Barney... run for it!!! :eek:
