Those of you have have had your skin children vaccinated, did you question the nurse? We are highly trained to administer drugs!!! |
Seriously, I don't think I've ever had a shot given by a doctor since I was a little girl, and believe me, he wasn't good at it! I'm not even sure my vet gives the shots, he takes Joey out of the room and a vet tech may do it for all I know.
