The Vet

On Saturday, I took Sagwa to the veterinarian. The vet, Dr. Lee, was recommended to me by the pet shop that gave me the breeders name. I was a little nervous at first because Im in Korea but the vet spoke very good English. Sagwa got his second round of rabies shots so he should be good for importation to the United States in that respect. Some other tests have a 30 day expiration date so I have to get them right before I leave. Sagwa weighed in at 1.6kg (3lbs 1oz.) The vet did his thing and gave me a report, he said Sagwa is fat. Silly me, I was feeding him extra food because I thought he was too thin. Then he looked at me sternly and said, "Do you love your dog?" I answered, "Yes." Dr. Lee then scolded me for Sagwas dirty condition. His ears were dirty and I hadnt given Sagwa his weekly bath. Thank God I got his toe nails cut before we went to the vet or I would have gotten scolded for that too. The whole trip set me back 60,000W ($50) but it included a six month supply heart worm pills and the rabies shot.
