I will! It's AAHA recommended and I'm nervous that they're going to judge me when I tell them where I got Gizmo. Isn't that sad?

Do they normally ask where you got your pup?
I never had to tell my vet where I got Riley....
They never asked.

Oh! I feel for you. It's so tough starting with a new vet. I started ZoE out with a new vet I had no history with, after a 3 year gap in pets and a house move. It's taken me the entire time I've had her to build any trust with him & his recommendations. Thankfully, he's not disappointed yet, in fact, I'm really happy with him & his staff are all amazing.

Best of luck of you & Giz

Last time they asked is because they said something along the lines of it gives them a better grasp on what to look for with regards to medical problems if they know the dog's background.

They won't care where you got him.

I live close to you and know many vets here. If you can't find somebody you like, just PM.

Thank you so much!

Ellie May · 06-30-2011, 05:45 PM

You're welcome. We went through four before finding somebody that I am comfortable touching my dog.

Hope the vet visit went well. My vets in the past have never asked where I got my dogs. As long as your dog has a great home now (which he does!) they will not care where you got him. I took my new canine kiddies to a new vet and really like him. When we got for the last booster, we are meeting his partner (which I have only heard good things about). Best wishes.

Have you tried Dr Wilson, He is a really good vet. I had been to a couple in my area, one gave prednisone to my pregnant female, one took 3 vet techs to get blood from a 5 lb female to do a CBC and Brucellosis charged me for both but only did the Brucellosis, one is the vet my husband takes our Pom to and they complained that they had to do a fecal on one of my pups because I forgot the stool sample at home and gave the shots in the hip . Since then I have been going to DR. Wilson and have no issues with them, they are nice people and they are very knowledgeable about Yorkies and other small dogs. Oh I should also mention the 3 vet techs to get the blood was because the first 2 didn't know what they were doing My girl is very laidback.
