It was seriously nothing at all. Teddy will be just fine and no worse for wear than if he was getting a simple shot.
Relax and it will all be done and he will be back in your arms. It didn't hurt my other dog when I had her chipped either, she didn't even hardly notice. Teek is 1/4 the size of her so I was more worried about him, but he did not cry out and it really did not seem to hurt him much at all, like getting your ears pierced I would think. |
You are getting all worked up over nothing! This is what I do to myself before I get a flu shot, a pneumonia shot, ANY kind of shot! By the time I go in to get the shot, I am a nervous wreck......grey, cold, clammy, and almost pass out! Then the actual shot turns out to be nothing!! I am another Teddy!!! Teddy will be fine! YOU can have a positive contribution to the process by telling the vet to "be sure the bevel is up when you insert the needle"!!!
