Oh, Tibbe's kind of different about the vet. He's one of the few dogs who loves to go to the vet, struggles to get back to where the other dogs and all the people are as they are carrying him back to the back - his ears are up and forward and he's already barking and engaging with the other dogs as they go through the door to the back. He's kissing the attendant that carries him back. You just mention "vet" to him and he's amped and barking and by the front door, ready to go. He loves all the attention and all the other dogs around and the action there, I guess. Where he stays when at the vet he can see them coming and going and I think he loves it, just barks for them to stop what they are doing and give him attention. They always tell me of his antics to get them to pay attention to him in his cage when I come to get him. I think he thinks of it as a play date or something. He's such a social creature he would get shots, exams, bloodwork all day and even sell his little dog soul to be in the center of things and getting noticed by lots of different people. That's why he loves crowds - he's such a little ham. If he were a person, he would be an entertainer or a politician or both.
