A field guide
This story was originally published on my vet school blog, “Wet Cleanup on Aisle 5.”
A man’s dog was terribly sick, so he took him to the local vet.
The vet picked the dog up, looked him over, then got a pained look on his face. Shaking his head, the vet said, “I’m afraid I’m going to have to put your dog down.”
“WHY?!” the man cried. “He’s dying?!”
“It’s not that,” said the vet. “He’s just really heavy.”
LaShelle Easton is a veterinarian, animal communicator, and author who hates describing herself in those terms because they put her in a box and leave out the fun stuff, like budding guitar player, chocoholic, tea lover, bookworm, crazy cat lady, computer geek, dinosaur fan… She lives on the edge of the North Cascades with The World’s Greatest Husband and their woggledog, cats, chickens, and sloth.
I enjoy the vet jokes 🙂
