Oakley came in today for his wellness visit. Oakley is the sweetest boy, however he gets nervous at the vet and goes into fight or flight mode. BUT with his amazing owner’s support, we have come so far!

Mom rubbed a little medicated gel on Oakley’s gums while in the car, they hung out there for a little bit, then when he started getting tired they brought him inside….his brother is his best bud. Oakley laid next to my desk until he was more sleepy and then we did everything we needed to keep him healthy…labwork, exam, and even x-rays today for follow up on his knee surgery (he likes to hide under a blankie for some parts ). Finally another little shot and he is back to his old self and ready to go home.

This protocol is amazing for our fearful friends and their owners. And, super cool, Oakley is wagging his tail and only has happy memories of his visit to the vet.
