Emmitts first vet check up at the Carrboro plaza vet's was today! Now when we lived in maryland we went to the vet's a few times with Emmitt, though I hated it each time. The vet was rough, he didn't really try to calm Emmitt (who is of course a bit timid of men) no treat, no petting, and he immediately muzzled Emmitt with out even asking what his temperment was like. Ugh I hated that guy!

SO, of course I was kinda putting off the Vet's this time now we are in Chapel Hill. I waited until he ran out of heart worm meds, so we had to go. Its so close I walked him there, took about 20 min, good to relax him and empty his bladder. When we got there the receptionists seemed to know everyone, he got a treat, and we got to sit in a quiet corner since the noticed he was pretty nervous We got into the room, and there was a male vet tech, I did explain Emmitt is shy when it comes to guys, so he said he would just ask questions, gave Emmitt some treats to help him relax, and went to find a female vet and vet tech. They were both so nice, made him comfortable, pet him, took it slow so he could relax.

And the great thing was we were offered services and told the price, not just assumed we wanted every test possible. I walked out paying less than $200 when usually i spend nearly $500!

I would absolutely reccommend the

Carrboro Plaza Veterinary Clinic

to anyone! They are courteous, friendly, warm, and kind, and very obviously love animals!
