It was off to Northumberland Vet Clinic for examinations, microchips and first shots this afternoon. Well the pups were there for that --- I was there to meet my public. As you know, the last time I was there for a visit I was somewhat indisposed --- didn't do much schmoozing on March 19th given the collision that was happening inside me. But I digress ... I certainly made up for it all today.
The pups did very well for first timers. Lots of compliments on how well I have raised them, with weights ranging between 8 (Jade #1) and almost 10 pounds (Belly Boy #3 and Millie Junior #4). Sticky (#2) tried to make a run for it with two pig's ears --- I was so embarrassed. The others, thankfully, were a little more restrained.
At any rate, we're back home and will head for the farm first thing in the morning. The pups will sleep well tonight. It has been a big day for them. We went for an almost 15 minute walk through the woods first thing this morning.
We had another first today --- absolutely no protestations about being in a crate and going for the car ride to the vets. They are ALMOST well enough behaved for the Tim Hortons drive thru.
