I dyed my hair.  I purchased a new dress for Easter. I like being outside.  I am traveling out of town soon. I have a job. I have a new car. I am almost 29 years old. I am interested in fashion. I like to read. My mom is a designer. My dad is absent. I love animals. I used to have a dog. I cried when I put my dog to sleep. I have no pets, but I would like a do someday. I live in an apartment. My last dog was a rescued mutt. I adopted a Welsh Corgi from a rescue. I named my dog Willy. I love my dog. My dog has settled in at my home. My dog loves people. My dog is sometimes shy around people. I prefer dogs. I like cats ok. I didn't like cats when I was a kid.
I like to go for walks and enjoy nature. I am a veterinarian. I love animals. I like to paint. I like rock music. My mom is a nurse. I have two dogs and two cats. I jog with my dogs. I have many pets and I like to adopt rescues. I am knowledgeable about dogs. I love dogs and cats.
What are the names of your dogs and cats? My cats are named Heidi and Sippie. Dogs are Buddy and General Lee. Are you thinking of getting a pet? No, you know I just adopted Willy.  That's enough for now.  I was just wondering about your pets.  What are the breeds of the two dogs? Oh, sorry. I thought you were talking about some other dogs and cats. Mine are called Mutt and Jeff, (dogs), and Rightside and Leftside, (cats). My dogs are rescues, so they're mutts. Those are fun names.  My dog's name isn't nearly as creative.  Say, what are the strangest animals you've ever worked on as a veterinarian? As long as you love him, that's all that matters. I'm sure you will. I did have to operate on a pet snake that swallowed something he shouldn't have, so that was pretty strange. And a lady brought in her African Grey bird, who kept talking all the time. That was weird. I've never had a patient talk to me before! Haha!  That's really funny!  Do you like working on the exotic animals or do you prefer the more familiar dogs and cats? I really prefer dogs and cats. They're just used to human contact so they're easier to deal with. Snakes and birds aren't really domesticated, so it's harder to handle them. But I'm a vet, so I have to deal with all animals, not matter their species. How is Willy settling in? What do you do when you have to travel for work? Willy seems a little overwhelmed but so far hasn't had any major issues.  It's still early though!  I haven't thought too much about what to do when I travel.  I'm thinking of letting my mom take care of him, if she's willing. Yes, it will take time, but you love him, and he will respond to that. Just listen to him and he'll learn to trust you. Yes, having someone come to take care of him will be good. Hopefully, your mom can come to your house and stay. It might be a bit traumatic if Willy has to go to another house right after he's gotten used to yours.  Yes, I definitely don't want to leave him with someone else just after I got him.  I could imagine that would be traumatic.  I'll try to minimize the amount of stress and further change he has to experience for a while. Dogs really like routine. If he's in the same place, then he'll feel more comfortable. He will miss you of course, but if he's in his own surroundings, it will be better for him. That's not really a doctor's opinion, just my own, based on years of dog ownership. Ha!
