Jethro!

Last week I was asked to assist in taking Jethro an 8 year beagle mix to the vet for his shots. Jethro has a tendency to be aggressive towards some men and a very timid and shy at the vet, making the trip difficult for his Human, Erika Monaco. I'm happy to report that Jethro did EXCELLENT! He was very well behaved and sweet to everyone he encountered that afternoon, and had no complaints about taking his medicine (Rabies Booster). So a big thank you goes out to Erika and Jethro for inviting us out to help and look forward to seeing Jethro again sometime! GOODBOY JETHRO!
