Pika's First Vet Visit, Round One

Pika is four months old, a Thai Ridgeback with a stripe of hair running down her back, and last week she had her first vaccination. She was brave until the moment the vet opened the drawer with the needles. Then she tried to climb into my shirt.

The nurse gave her a treat, the vet gave her a pat, and the needle was over in a second. Pika looked shocked for about ten seconds and then asked for another treat. I think she has forgiven us, mostly.

Next visit is in four weeks.
