I’m just here to say that the German Shepard photos are adorable!
I’m just here to say that the German Shepard photos are adorable!
i dont understand why this is such a big issue. It was noted in some random vet file, it doesnt seem like its going to dramatically affect your dogs life. If you can still enroll him in dog training classes, take him to parks, etc. I dont know how doggy daycare works, so maybe they would be the only ones who would look at a vet file??
All a doggy daycare or training class would ask to see is verification of vaccines.
Without steady employment, they invent their own career
Made me laugh so hard because it is true. My grandparents GSD knew it was doing something naughty but would do it anyway and then he’d either go sit in the same spot and cover his eyes with his paws like he was ashamed of his behavior or he’d jump a fence and make his way to my grandma’s brothers house down the road!! My great uncle would then call his sister and say your dog must of done something naughty because he’s here.
My grandparents spent a lot of time trying to train him but it was the 70s and I don’t think so much information was available about specific dog breeds and how to train them. He was a fabulous dog but by the time I was around he was an old man and much less active.
I think any teachers/coaches of any future children of yours are going to have their hands full.
As nurses we write down the littlest thing sometimes because it’s a good record for future assessments. Lots of people can excuse something as a one off, and we could believe them, but still write it down. Being thorough is an asset it the medical field, I’d be more concerned if he didn’t.
i was upset, I think rightfully so, that the vet didn’t discuss that he was concerned about any behavior and honestly, I thought he was a bit of a dick when my puppy jumped on him. No, jumping is not okay. We ARE actively working on it. But we have seen this vet a few times, he knows we are on top of things, he knows we do training, he knows I am super anxious about Gunner, he knows Gunner is very friendly and generally well behaved. He jumped, the vet acted like my dog intentionally punched him in the face and laughed at him, I apologized and told Gunner to sit and he sat for the remainder of the appt.
To comment on how I’m going to be a mother to my kids is ridiculous. I get that this is an online forum and you don’t know who I am, but I came on here and asked advice because I knew I was probably overreacting and I didn’t take any action. I ended up talking to the vet yesterday and didn’t ask them to change the file or anything. I vented online as an anxious first time puppy owner who has spent hours and hours and hours training a puppy who is AMAZINGLY behaved because of our hard work and got frustrated when he jumped 1x and the vet made that note. I expect A LOT out of my dog (and my future kids). I’m not some helicopter crazy mom who thinks my dog can do no wrong.
And as someone who is trying unsuccessfully for months to become a mother and it’s all I think about, I ask that in the future, you don’t make rude comments about how people you don’t know will parent their children on the internet.
You’re making a point that the vet didn’t discuss the “behavioral issue” note with you….but you did discuss training so you did discuss behavioral issues.
Your vet isn’t going to go over exactly what’s in the medical record word for word.
You’re being very unreasonable.
If you feel uncomfortable with your vet you should totally change vets. There’s nothing wrong with shopping around and finding someone who works well with both you and your pupper.
Don’t expect to be able to proof read their notes elsewhere though.
