Waiting at the vet clinic

Typed on the PlayBook.

We took everyone to the vet for their annual wellness exam. Our vet, Wallaceburg Animal Hospital, is in the next town and the roads were snow-packed, so the drive was leisurely.

The vet had an emergency patient so we waited longer than usual. The dogs understandably became restless.

Kendal cocked his ears at sounds outside the examining room.

Drama queen Stella paced, barked at sounds, and occasionally hoisted herself on her hind legs to check out the counter.

Eventually the vet came in, we really like Dr. Vallee. Everyone is fine, Stella has a little gum disease. The cattle dogs got their vaccinations. Kendal not yet, because of his recent illness Dr. Vallee recommended holding off for a few weeks. And now everyone is curled up.

This is a wonderful study of Chili dog on a recent sunny day. Faye gets (and deserves) all of the credit.
