OFA Testing

Now that I'm two, mom took me into the vet for some special testing. She said it was important to make sure that I am A-OK for my hips and my thyroid. I didn't even know I had hips or a thyroid! wonder what I need those for... And she also said that my brother Owe'n was going to be at the vet at the same time, too! I wonder if I'll see him?

Anyway, mom and Glenn walked me to the vet's office in the morning and I thought we'd drop off some papers and be on our way. But no, a nice vet tech came down and took me from mom.

This is my least favorite part of going to the vet -- when they take me from her. I wuff my mom and why I have to be alone there is beyond me - we don't keep any secrets from each other!

Anyway they brought me upstairs to visit with all of the other pups and cats and birds that were staying there for the day, and I tried to relax for a bit but it as so hard! Eventually they came to get me out of my crate and brought me over to an examining table where they made me lie on my back and gave me something to make me feel funny. ahhhhhh... much better...

After that things are a bit blurry.

But I do remember seeing Ms. Jane, and Dr. Kim, and a funny machine, and a big needle, and lots of people moving around, and a purple dragon jumping through a flaming hoop...

After I woke up, I felt a bit like mom does after she comes back from yoga, all loosy goosy and rubbery in my legs. And boy was I sleepy. But before I could really settle in for a snooze, I was being taken downstairs to....

MOM!!!!!!

Oh my word! There she is! She's right there and I am such an overly excitedpupthatican'tevenconcetrateiamgoingtojumpinherarmsandneverever leaveherside!
