I agree - Cupcake and all pups need to get used to people touching them and socialized (which Cupcake might be lacking since being separated from his mommy dog at such an early age - this is why we all recommend staying with mom until 12 weeks of agee).
However, a 13 week old tiny Yorkie can be handled without a friggin muzzle. Next time ask for another vet tech. Don't let them take your baby out of your eyesight in situations like that - I don't trust that at all. |

I agree! I would look for a new vet. In fact, I probably would have grabbed my baby & left the office without getting the shots. Yes, dogs do need to be socialized, but I think that a muzzle is a bit extreme. He's a 13 week old little puppy! Wow. I'm actually angry after reading your post. Personally, I don't think what your vet did was acceptable. Poor Cupcake!
