Canis Major


George loves going to the vet. Between normal yearly visits, cancer, rehab, specialists, and moves, he been to his fair share. And, they ALWAYS adore him. At 5th Avenue Vet where he sees his oncologist, he is treated like a celebrity. He walks in with his little 'cinnamon bun' tail wiggling away eager for the vet experience. He kisses all the technicians and doctors when they handle him, often taking them by surprise (which is hilarious). He smiles.
I think it says a lot for someone who went through some really rough times with vets and doctors. He still has this incredibly positive attitude and happy disposition.
It's a great lesson in many ways... having a healthy attitude in life, embracing each day fully (even if you have to the doctors office), expecting good things from people, not living in the past and that a little ignorance can be bliss (he IS a dog after all)!

Here he waits patiently for the doctor to arrive.
