Vet Visit.
Today, Phoenix went to the Vets for her first injection. Only the second time ever in the car: she still wasn’t crazy about it. She didn’t mind being in the car, it was the sight of the landscape speeding by that tipped her over the edge. Treats worked well to distract her.
Once we got to the vets, she loved it. Everybody made a huge fuss of her, staff and visitors. Carolyn the vet, noted on her record that she was a “lovely and extremely well socialised pup”.

Phoenix was given a clean bill of health, the vet commented that Phoenix was big for her age and wasn’t she actually ten weeks old rather than eight weeks!
Phoenix was invited to two puppy parties.
