Ha! Well, the whole "pee on them" strategy didn't work well for poor Fae. She still had to have her temperature taken (thermometer up the butt -- ick o.o) and got her shots. Although ... truthfully, there are several people in this world who deserve to be pissed upon -- IMO. =P

It is a human drug, just in a canine flavor and smaller dosage. LOL re: monkeys as pets. Sometimes, I wish human drugs tasted better ... but then I guess even more people would get addicted to them.

Thanks for the congrats on the puppy. He really is my Sweet Babu ... and having him in the house has really pointed out to me all the stuff I was really missing. And it's mostly breed characteristic stuff, as Springers are very people oriented. Fae loves us, but she is not a "people dog". I think she's become more attached to us since the puppy has come into the house, believe it or not. Which is a good thing.
