Tucker had his first vet vist today. Poor puppy got his first needle and his first deworming. He cried when the Vet put the needle in. and continued to cry for a bit afterwards and tried to bit the needle that the vet was using. I got a little teared up too...as I was worried about the puppy! He's a good boy and I felt bad for him, however things were soon made better when the vet put food in front of him and he gobbled it up.
Jeremy was a bit upset too about the needle and him crying. The vet just said "he does have shepherd in him" which means I guess that they are a bit whimpy and she said he will be quite vocal with whines and grunts to let us know what kind of mood he's in. I think it's kinda cute, however, Jeremy does not....he thinks....."ohh boy a whimpy dog"
The vet and Jeremy had a big talk about worms and what not, the vet said most puppies have worms, as they get it from the milk of the mother. This of course grossed Jeremy out and he's been walking around ever since saying "I feel the worms in my shoulder/neck/head/arm (insert any other body part)" LOL I laugh at him because I know he's being funny. The vet said not to worry if he happens to poop out any worms that it would be normal and that is the deworming stuff working.
Since Jeremy did the Puppy Plan at the Vet we got some samples and some free toys for Tucker. Well they aren't really free, but anyways, Tucker is now the most spoiled puppy on the planet. LOL I'll have to take a picture of all his toys and him...now would actually be a good time because he's sleeping! lol Jeremy bought him two toys, I got him two toys and the puppy plan had two toys in it...for a grand total of 6 toys, and two more if you count Jeremy and I because we become Jungle Jeremy and Jungle Lisa when we are on the floor with him! lol It's cute now, but in a little while it won't be so cute when he's knocking us both over because he's so big!
