After the vet

Today was Vasco's first full day with my family... well, part of my family anyway. My dad's in Taiwan til tomorrow and my mom's been working long hours and doing orientation for a new job so she had only glimpsed him through his crate while he was sleeping.

We went to the vet today and the vet along with the assistants all commented on how well behaved and calm he was. He even fell asleep while waiting for the vet to come back. So we got all the paperwork (vaccination certificate, Interstate certifcate for travel) that hopefully he needs for traveling. He also got 2 vaccinations, including rabies. However both vaccinations usually aren't given for another 2 months so I hope that was okay. They were required though for him to travel...

He's been really... mild ever since the exam. Sleeping a lot. This evening when I was petting him, he yelped and kind of wimpered around one of the injection sites so I'm somewhat concerned. If it still seems to pain him tomorrow morning, I'll call the vet. But yeah, I'm a little worried now, because he doesn't seem to respond to much and just seems to want to sleep. He went into his crate and just lay down. Didn't matter who was walking in and out of the room, or if the vacuum cleaner was on, or even if you stuck your head into his crate and talked to him, there was no response. If it wasn't for the fact that I can see he's breathing I would be afraid he'd died or something. So I hope this is just a mild reversible side effect from the vaccinations. Really hope he's back to his young self in the morning.
