That is so me sometimes. Granted, at the vet this morning I'll give myself some credit as I did get out the one question/concern I had (the Vectra3D they gave me is making puppy itchy)... but the whole thing was a very one sided conversation and I feel a little embarrassed about it.
He doesn't like the food I'm feeding is a mix of kibbles I'm feeding. (the foods are good, he just doesn't understand why I'm mixing them - he wants me to use one) He doesn't like that I'm using an x-pen and training pads. He wants me to use a crate and let him run around the house with supervision. He was trembly and they were saying he needs to get more used to being handled... he's only 13 weeks old... obviously I am careful about who/when I let him get handled. SMH.
It's not that it was bad advice by any means and it really all did go very well, and maybe I'm probably having one of those emotional kind of days, but I felt SO hyper sensitive to the whole thing. It would have been nice to get some sort of compliment. I've been trying to take really good care of him and I felt a little chastised and condescended to. Le sigh. See, I told you I'm being all sensitive.
Just needed to vent! Thanks!!  |
I'm glad your feeling better now that you ate! Don't take it personal...you know how there are some doctor's who do not have good bedside manners. That is one one my biggest pet peeves. I give them a second chance and if they are the same way I find another doctor. I feel like I have to be able to talk to my doctor and that they listen to what I have to say. Otherwise I sit there and get ticked off and I don't say a word which is not good either. However, it they are the best in their field then I just deal with it because I feel like I don't have a choice. Funny how life is sometimes! I'm sure you are a good mommy and will do what is right for your baby. Remy only sees his pen when I have to run errands or hubby and I go out. Other then that, I supervise him in the house. Don't get me wrong it's a lot of work because he is all over the place. I should be under 100 lbs with the way I chase him lol. If I want him to settle down, I sit him on the couch with me and he lays down but you have to do what works for you.
