Pet Parent Anxiety

June 9th, 2009 by Amy

Hey Guys,

So I have a confession to make. I am one of those dog moms that freak out when I have to take my dog to the vet. I am worse than the dog actually. I hide it pretty well once we get there but I am dying on the inside. I can’t watch when they give him shots, when/if he cries my heart breaks and today killed me when I brought the new pup to get neutered and had to drop him off..GASP…overnight. I shed a tear on the way back to the car.

Why do I do this? My vet is amazing and they all love him and take the best care. My dog has pretty bad separation anxiety..but in reality who has it worse..him or me?  I do not have children so I guess this is my momma bear moment when I was him to feel safe and loved..but in the end it’s the right thing to do and to be honest it really is not a big deal. But I will be nervous Nelly until I can pick him up tomorrow morning.

How do you handle the anxiety when your pet is gone for the night? Do you enjoy the quiet? Have a fun night out? Help a girl out will ya!

Smooches,

Amy
