Fergi at the Vet

We took our little Malteese Fergi to the vet yesterday to get her heart worm medicine. They needed to do a blood test first though since it had been a while. Elli was doing great until she saw the needle in Fergi's led. She then started crying and saying, "That's my doggie." "Fergi no sick." "I hold her." "Stop it." "Nooooooo." I was so sad too because Fergi was shaking like a leaf and Elli was crying very loudly that Fergi had this needle in her leg. I believe this is the first display of emotion from Elli at seeing someone else hurting. Who knows, she may surprise us all and go into medicine! (likely story Lori)

Aw, what a sweet girl you have. :) How does Elli do when she is the one getting shots? Aubrey has to get more next month. So sad!

She is so precious and good at communicating her feelings! You will have to keep that story around to tell her when she gets older. Blessings, Mindi
