Scooby’s Stitches

2015-03-26 12.04.362015-03-26 12.04.45Scooby loves pretty much everything and everyone. He even loves his veterinarian and vet techs. But he doesn’t love some of the stuff that goes along with visiting his veterinarian. And that means being inside the vet’s office is not his favorite place.

Thankfully Scooby’s vet knows that and is happy to meet him wherever he’s most comfortable. So today when he had the last of his stitches removed, the task was done while he relaxed in the back of my car.

There he was on his side, comfy and cozy and propped up on his Scooby bed with his Scooby blankets. Like Norm on Cheers, this is Scooby’s Happy Place.

Two vet techs greeted him with kind words and soft pets and while one held his head and mouth still, the other gently removed the stitches.

And they talked to him the whole time.

Snip. Snip. And a few seconds later all done. Then they gave him treats and more soft pets. Take a look at Scooby’s face. I think you know how he felt right then.

Next on Scooby’s schedule is a bath and Hot Stone Massage. Yes. The Scoobster will get his very own Hot Stone Massage. Because at 20 ½ years of age Scooby can pretty much have whatever he wants.

And just wait until he sees what’s in his dinner bowl tonight!

YUM 🙂
