Today I had to take my dog Montana to the vet. At first, he was happy and excited to get out of the house and easily jumped into the car. Once at the vets,Montana became very suspicious and began to pace in a panic. The kind mannered vet approached Montana using her softest baby voice, but Montana wasn't buying it. As soon as I placed the muzzle on Montana's face....the drama began. Luckily, the doctor was quick and professional,making the visit as uneventful as possible.
As Montana and I were waiting by the register,a fellow animal lover approached Montana with her own dog. I was busy paying for the visit not realizing what was going on behind me. I was shocked to see Montana nose to nose with another dog. My heart skipped a beat,knowing Montana's past history with other dog's. If I were to react to the situation, Montana would have lunged at the unsuspecting friendly dog,so I froze...standing completely still,I waited to see the result of this meeting. As soon as Montana's back hair began to rise and the warning sound of a growl emerged...we quickly separated the dogs. Thankfully no one was hurt, but to those of you pet owners out there who have well behaved dogs...FYI...not all dogs get along at first sight...so please don't assume that your pet will be welcomed by every dog. Ask the owner first, thank you.
