Well, today was the big day -- first time for a car ride (no one got sick - yeah!!). Aunt Kathy was able to go with us and help carry the crate into the vet's office -- needless to say - we make a statement when we arrived -- a crate full of absolutely darling pups makes every one ooohh and awww!! Even the people with cats couldn't help but adore them!
Everyone had a clean bill of health:
- Eyes and eyelids checked
- Teeth/bite checked
- Hearts listened to -- check!
- Check for hernia's -- good to go!!!
- Ears checked
- Boys were checked for testicles -- all accounted for!
And - what we all love the best: we were weighed:
- Lexus 4.3 lbs
- Casey 4.2 lbs
- Elvis 4.9 lbs
- Patrick 5.3 lbs (it's all muscle!)
- Zoe 4.4 lbs
They all received their 1st set of shots. You will receive a record of what was given - and should plan on making their next vet appointment in about 3-4 weeks for the next round. Heartworm is prevalent in our area. The doctor gave me heartworm pills - which I will give them this weekend. We don't want to over burden their little systems today with more chemicals. I was happy with their check-up. They came home -- played out in the grass - destroyed my tulips -- ate their lunch and are sleeping soundly.
