Before Mummy and Daddy could take me back to live with them I had to see someone called a Vet. The Vet’s name was Roger. Roger was very nice and he seemed very interested in me. He looked at my eyes and my ears, he felt my back and my joints and he talked in a nice soothing voice. Then I heard him say a big word that I hadn’t heard before. It sounded like injeckshuns. I didn’t know what injeckshuns were but I soon found out. Roger picked up a pointy thing - a very long and pointy thing - and he put it into my skin. ‘Ouch’ I said. I thought Roger was a nice man but I didn’t think the injeckshuns was a very nice thing to do. But then he took the injeckshuns out again and rubbed where it hurt and in a second it was all better. Maybe injeckshuns aren’t so bad after all.
All puppies need injeckshuns to stop us getting poorly. Roger said baby humans have to have injeckshuns too. We puppies have to wait a week after having our injeckshuns before we can go out for a walk in the big wide world. I can’t wait to go for my first walk. Have your or your puppy had all of your injeckshuns?
(Boys and girls, Treasure isn’t very good at spelling. Did you spot the spelling mistake? You’re very clever if you did. When she says injeckshuns, what she really means is Injections. Silly Treasure! She is only a Puppy after all).
