    Our dog started limping last night so off to the vets today. She is a lovely Lurcher Greyhound Saluki cross. As soon as we got her there she started shaking and trying to hide under the chair. When inside the room we had to put her on the table. She was shaking so much the table started rattling then she did a complete Scooby doo and jumped into hubbies arms and hid her face whilst trying to sit on his shoulder. The vet couldn't giver her the antibiotic injection for about 5 minutes because he was laughing to much.
    He did say though lurchers are not well know for being brave

    This has given me a much needed belly laugh - thank-you:T (reminds me of my old lurcher and my current greyhound, proper wusses)
  • We have a lurcher and he was also at the vets today as he has a corn on his pad, the vet took the top of the corn off today to try and ease the pressure and he just let him, no howling, no crying,yelping or weeing :) very proud of him today as he is normally a wimp too. Hopefully you can see him below resting lol

    Bagga is ok at the Vets, very good infact, but I have to use a grinder on his nails as he throws a right fit when I try to clip his nails.

    Got to be worth a few internet forwards, hasn't it?
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Some brilliant roaching action going on here! My grey doesn't DO roaching much - when she does she gets too relaxed and generally falls off the sofa.

    Bagga falls off a couple of times a day, happens so often that no one bats an eyelid anymore LOL

    OMG this is just how Sally our staffi x lurcher rescue dog is on the sofa at night time, she also has to hold on to her " daddy" when at the vet and howls until she gets out the vets room. She has to sleep at night with a blankie over her head as well.
