Hi Everyone,
We took young Brad to see the vet today, as he had a 'crusty' type of rash come up on his skin. It turns out he has bacterial skin infection, which the vet thinks could be caused by an allergy or from swimming. He's now on antibiotics, and getting extra cuddles from his mum & dad. :wink:
Anyway, the thing i wanted to ask you is, how do your labs react when visiting the vet?
I have to say, it was upsetting to see how Brad reacted to the vets. He was absolutely terrified, (worse than a previous visit) he had to be dragged into the consulting room, his little legs were shaking, he was panting very fast & ended up snuggling into my neck. Poor boy. He hasn't had a particularly bad experience before, just the usual jabs, check up & one time a jab for gastro.
Anyone have a lab that hates the vets too?
Would be interested to hear your experiences.
Many Thx,
Julie
