My husband never removed an animal from the room unless the owner didn't want to see or he felt they would over-react in some way.  OK, I'm bragging, but vetman was and is the best veterinarian I've ever seen. Alas, he's retired. |
Thanks for posting this Chels! It reaffirms why I love my vet so much. My pet's vet always removes the animal to perform certain procedures one of them being drawing blood. However, we are ALWAYS invited to join him.
I must say our vet must be in the same class as vetman because he is calm during our visits and finds the veins easily.
