Praying Teddy is doing well this morning, and that you can find a good vet that you trust and like.

One concern is, "Will client be back for the other vaccines we think their dog should have." As far as I know, all of my dogs' vets would give several at once. I chose them for other reasons.. Vaccines are a negotiable subject. So for whoever is not comfortable getting them at once, you can always ask that they be split up.
What really upset me about the vet who gave Max every vacc possible in one visit, including bordetella down the nose, was that Max behaved perfectly enduring everything, including a nail trim, and then the vet roughly turned him on his back and grasped his snout to demonstrate to me how to show him who is in charge. That was his reward for behaving.
