-I do not think it was about her dog being dumped due to an emergency (that would be lacking in consideration of common sense) it was about the lack of professionalism and people doing their job to the ability they are required to do...anything less is well unprofessional, if not previously agreed on.
I'm unsure of your reaction to the OP
My vet knows my dogs are not dropped off to be sitting in a cage all day waiting for their appointment we show up for the appointment and we leave when done-especially if they are supposed to do an evaluation prior to release, if that's how they handle communication do you really think they weren't going to rush through an evaluation?
Then again I do not drop my dogs off at the groomers all day either, we have an appointment time, we show up for it if I don't stay there I run a few errands in the shopping center and then pick them up...

I'd be thrilled that the vet prioritized his patients the way yours did. An emergency takes priority over EVERYTHING, otherwise it wouldn't be an emergency. Your vet did nothing wrong. A routine dental takes a max of 30 minutes so I'm sure he will be perfectly fine to go home before 6pm.
I'm you do not like the fact that your dog had to sit at the vet's office while they took care of emergency patients instead of your dogs teeth cleaning. I'm sure your dog was absolutely fine there and was probably sleeping most of the time like most dogs do while they are there. Everybody thinks their dog can't cope without them when they are left places but 99% of the time once you are out of their line of vision they calm down. You may think they are freaking out because of the way they act when you are leaving them, but that is because they are feeding off of your poor energy. |
