Hey!!
So today I had to take Rudy to the vet clinic. That was interesting to say the least. First I had to get gas, so I was running soo late and I went to pick up Selena, because it's her vet clinic and she made the appointment and everything. So we go there and Rudy poops right in front of the building (thank God I was a smart pet owner...I always carry bags). Then he realizes it's a vet clinic and doens't want to move so I'm here holding my purse, the bag, and Rudy trying to drag him in. Finally I manage to pick him up and we enter. He's soo scared and already starts shaking and won't let me go. So I have to have him on my lap. He takes a treat the assistant gives him, and then just throws it out (not up thank God) on the floor. I was like sorry I guess he doesn't really like it. Then we finally go into the room and I put him on the table and he's shaking soo hard, and the doctor tries to turn him around to inspect his eyes and ears but Rudy keeps turning around trying to look at me, and all I can do is just say shhh it's okay Rudy over and over. He tries to climb on me as if to say get me down from this table. Then he poops again out of fear. I hadn't even noticed till the assistant goes it's okay I'll clean it up. Then she has to take him to another room to weigh him, but he won't go so I have to carry him into the backroom, even though I'm technically not allowed to go in there. I try to put him on the table, and he keeps walking up to me, and I can't hold him down because that would ruin the weight. It took a while but we finally got him measured. Finally we're done and I put him down and I'm trying to pay, and Selena and I are talking to the assistant about her wedding and all Rudy does is keep running towards the door, then back to me and then again to the door trying to drag me. Oh and there was also a cat there, and Rudy is scared of cats so when he was actually walking he would make a huge turn just to avoid the cat. But he was sooo cute, and he looked sooo scared, and I love him sooo much and I felt sooo bad (I actually said to Selena maybe we shouldn't go in, look he'll get a heart attack, and she was like no he needs his rabies shot). We finally leave and Rudy is sooo happy in the car. He loves car rides. Especially away from vet clinics. Selena and the vet clinic were great, though so I'm very grateful for them.
