I went to the vet today, I was very friendly with all the doggies waiting in the room, I was so patient too. Everyone commented on how good I was. Had a blood test done for heartworm and got weighed....a whopping 24.5 lbs! Mommy was very disturbed by this amount....it's only a number Mommy. But it was suggested that I shouldn't gain anymore weight, better yet, I can stand to lose a few pounds. What is that suppose to mean? I'm insulted. So what if I'm bigger than the average pug? Great, now I won't get any table scraps or the gourmet food I talked about last night! Thanks a lot Ms. Vet Tech.
