Love suffereth long, is kind; love envieth not;
love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
love doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not provoked, taketh no account of evil;
Love rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth;
Love beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
Love never faileth.
1 Cor 13:4-8
Well, I doubt he’s going to be ‘put to sleep’ showing that kind of energy!
And from my experience, dogs don’t have nearly the problem with shots that people (like me =) do!
Maybe it’s just the trauma associated with vet visits (never knowing what to expect)? Fearful anticipation of the worst is so deceptively destructive (in people too for sure)!
Welcome T, That pic cracked me up and i just had to add the comment. You must have a very special dog if (s)he? looks like this one
Hey D – nice to see you again, how are you’re two ‘kids’ going? Does Jasper need another haircut?
I think you may have missed the title of the pic? if you put your mouse over it the name pops up – and that explains why i think he is ‘resisting somewhat’.
I do agree with you, anxiety and fear of the unknown can be very destructive.. i think ‘Rover’ here might have had a more reasonable ‘fear’ of the ‘known’ though and was hoping to avoid a disaster
As no doubt you fully know – dogs can often be far more ‘aware’ of what is about to happen than we humans are! (in some ‘lower’ ways!)
Thanks for asking about the ‘kids’. Jasper is fine, though about to go into ‘heat’ again ={ !! (Nick wants ‘grandkids’ I guess =)!
Actually it’s Bruin who has the shaggy coat, and yes, we did get him cut again the end of August (just one day before Nick had back surgery — he’s up doing great though and back to work after just two weeks — he came home just a couple of hours after the surgery).
I couldn’t get the top title you mentioned to come into my screen, just the bottom comment, “I dunno Doc… Ya think mebbe he suspects??”
That reminds me of one of Nick’s favorite Gary Larson ‘Far Side’ jokes:
A dog is in the back of his master’s pick-up as they pull out of the driveway. He says to the dog in the yard next door,
“Ha, Ha, Biff, I get to go to the vet to get ‘tutored’.
(It’s much funnier seeing the cartoon, but hopefully you get the idea =)! Of course with ‘Far Side’ jokes, it’s actually funnier watching Nick reading them with his face turning bright red from laughing so hard!
1 If there is therefore any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassions,
2 make full my joy, that ye be of the same mind, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
3 [doing] nothing through faction or through vainglory, but in lowliness of mind each counting other better than himself;
4 not looking each of you to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
5 Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being-on-an-equality-with-God a thing to be grasped,
7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men;
8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient [even] unto death, yea, the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and gave unto him the name which is above every name;
Phillipians (KJV) 2:1-9
hee hee!
That is too funny. Looks like my dog when we take him to the vet.
