BUT there will come a time when she may need to take that dog to the vets and drop it off for surgery or whatever and she wont be there to "control" her dog. I dont think the vet was out of line, if it was just a "bop" on the nose. He was telling the dog that he was the boss and that was it.. Im going to assume after the "bop" that the dog stop his growling?? Your dog was showing signs of aggression towards another person, this isnt funny nor acceptable. The next time he shows aggression may be the time he decides to strike and hurt someone. If the vet truly "smacked" the dog then yes he was out of line, I would of said something, walked out the door and be hunting for a new vet.
