I'm Here!

What a busy day! I came into IBR today. The foster care coordinator met me at the pick up point. I was very afraid and very timid.

She said, "Nutmeg, we'll get you through this. I'm going to slip this leash on you and talk to your transporter and get your paperwork. I'm going to hold the other end of the leash, but you come out when you want to." I figured she was talking to me, so I must be Nutmeg.

It took me a about a minute and while she was getting my paper work I hopped out of the crate.

I walked to her care, very timid though. I hopped in the crate. She gently touched my back and that scared me. Before she shut the door she made sure I had the blanket how I wanted it and then we were on our way.

She took me to the dr. office. Now let me tell you a thing or two about that. I'm not sure what the deal was, but she said I did get a little snarky while I was in the reception area.

Well, about that, I guess being in heat will do that to a girl. I got some unwanted attention from a few dogs. How rude! I didn't walk up and sniff them. I did like the little puppy I saw though, I pulled to go by her and started to lick her head.

In the exam room, before the dr. came in. I started to relax, foster care coordinator was still with me. She started talking to me. I liked that. I wagged my tail, gave her kisses, put my paws in her lap, and nudged her when she stopped petting me.

Then the dr came into the exam room. Here is the other part. Why do dr. have to look at my teeth? I don't look at their teeth. That was the only part I didn't care for. I was told everything looked at felt good. The dr. asked a few questions about me.

Then I heard, "OK Nutmeg (there is that name again, it must really belong to me then). I'm (Dr.) Antonio, lets go in the back. We'll give you a bath and take good care of you."

Before I left with him I had to make a few promises to the Foster Care Coordinator. I had to promise to eat all my kibble, not be so snarky, and be a good girl for my bath.

I think I can handle all that!
