I find it kind of interesting that so many people on YT won't allow their dogs to go in the back with just the vet or a tech. While Ellie's vet does the exam in front of me, all blood draws and cystos are done in the back and once her ear was even looked at it back there because Ellie isn't the most well behaved withme in site (or with me not in sight for that matter
). I even let her go in the back by herself with a tech for cystos. It's no different than leaving them for surgery. If you trust the vet, why insist on everything being done in front of you and if you don't, why use them at all?
