Toby's violence isn't just for groomers So Toby was doing this awful awful hard continuous hiccupping thing that freaked me out all night long, and acted like he was gonna throw up violently except nothing ever came up... so when he was still doing it off and on the next morning I took him to see the vet. The instant we walked into the waiting room he was s**tty to every other dog, so we sat alone so he'd stay calm. And the instant we got into the room he turned violent and wouldn't let the vet do anything other than barely check his heart and lungs. Nothing else. Wouldn't let anyone but me even touch him. I'm so frustrated because the only vet he ever really let get near him retired. So this is frustrating. I told them he needed his shots and I ended up leaving there with him still needing them because they couldn't deal with his temperament to give them to him. Uugh! And I do have sedatives to give him before grooming and they don't work. He gets all defensive and doesn't relax and is just as aggressive on them. I don't know what to do.
