Health Checks

Brought the 2 pooches for their long overdue health checks and blood tests. Dr Tan informed that recent studies on presence of antibodies in dogs' bodies via blood tests are unreliable. He recommended to vaccinate Abby (as she had missed her annual booster) and to do blood tests on livers and kidneys for both.

Dr Tan had trouble finding Abby's vein and had to prod for a while before finally locating one to withdraw a vial of blood. She remained sweet and co-operative throughout the entire procedure (good gal) with hardly a whimper. And when it was Uno's turn, boy, I have never seen him struggle or whine so much before! In the end, I was charged more for him as he was deemed "more difficult" to manage (faintz).

Thankfully, both received a clean bill of health, including their livers and kidneys.
