Okay… I need some advice. As you all know, Mason HATES the vet. And I am really struggling with how to handle that situation. He is due for his shots that are needed for him to be boarded/go to doggie daycare. Plus his nails are desperately in need of a trim!
The problem with going to the vet is not only that Mason despises it, but that it is very expensive. Mason gets so anxious when we go to the vet he has to be put to sleep (which is very costly, about $400, because he is so big and they have to double dose him). So, as you can imagine we avoid going to the vet at all cost, but the time has come where it is needed.
I have considered using a mobile/ at home vet service, but this makes me nervous as well. I guess just because it is something new and I don’t know how Mason will react. I have heard good things about it from a friend who has used an “at home vet” service before. However, that is the only the account I have really heard of personally of someone using a mobile/at home vet service for their pup who has anxiety regarding the vet.
Have any of you all used a mobile/at home vet service before?!
I would love to hear about your experiences and any tips you may have for dog with anxiety regarding the vet. Please help!!
