Today was vet day for Murphy - just normal stuff; shots and a check-up. Our boy adores going for rides with Bruce, but usually it's in our old jeep for trips to the dump. That jeep is our workhorse around here and there isn't anything that any animal could do to it that could get it dirtier or hairier than it already is. It's great having something that doesn't need to be cleaned -- ever. If I'm not along, Murphy even gets to sit in the passenger seat and be co-pilot, which he's rather good at.
This morning's trip to the vet, though, was in our relatively brand-new Prius. No way was that scruffy dog butt going to sit on those seats.  |
So, out came the never-out-of-the-package doggy car seat cover and the entire back seat was quickly draped with pet proof fabric. Murphy was not impressed.

Not one little bit
He jumped into the driver's seat and there he planted himself and wouldn't budge.
The video!
Finally, Bruce put the leash on our stubborn pup and convinced him that he wasn't going to get to drive the new car to Stockton.

Well, at least not today.
I love the look on Murphy's face in the video! Such a stubborn pup!
ReplyDeleteChelsea, yes, when Murphy doesn't want to do something he just completely shuts down. Maybe he had a premonition that the vet was going to pull 17 ticks off of him. We knew we were having an exceptionally bad tick season, but thought we were keeping up on it. Nope! Murphy is now on 2 weeks of antibiotics and we have Frontline on all the furry pets. This is what comes of going in for a simple rabies shot...
