Where do you like going more, the doctor’s office or the salon? When I go to the vet, they are very friendly, and give me treats. 

Then, things change. They poke and prod, and the last time I was there, I was so scared, I shot out a poop when they trimmed my nails. (I usually have this done at the groomer’s.) 

Imagine how embarrassed I was. They were very nice about it though, which helped me feel better. The wellness checks and vaccinations stress me out.

When I go to the groomer’s, they are very friendly, and give me treats, too. Then, things change. They brush my teeth, cut my nails, clean my ears and trim my paw hair and haunches. I’m not scared, but I rather be sleeping or playing.

Thank goodness they leave my tail alone! Sarah is very nice and carries me back to my mom. I really like my groomers, but the activities still stress me out a little bit.

I know it’s very important I go to both places.

So, I was just wondering, what is your preference, doctor’s office or salon?  

I’m pretty sure I know your answer to this one!
