Benny at the Vet's

Sounds like a song, doesn't it: B-B-Ba Benny at the Vets...

Here's Ben at the veterinary clinic. The technician had talked to us and we were waiting for the vet. Ben is looking at the exit door; clearly he's ready to go back home.

We stayed though, and the vet examined his ear. With Frank and the technician struggling to hold him still, the vet cleaned his ear and swabbed it. She said he has a bacterial infection.

We have to treat it twice a day. Frank distracts him with pieces of chicken while I clean it and apply 5 drops of medication.

Poor dog also has a tummy ache, the result of eating a shoe lace. Pulled it right out of one of my sneakers!
