Finding a new vet

Last year when I took Lily to the vet for her annual checkup it was probably one of the worst things that had happened to us in a while. I will admit that I don't have a single nice thing to say about that vet, they were horrible and super expensive. So throughout the year I have asked around at different events to figure out where most people in Dallas take their fur-children. A ton of people use CityVet, so I found one pretty close to the house and figured that we would give it a shot. They're still more expensive than the vet in St. Louis but the visit covers more stuff so I figured why not.

I am going to be honest and tell you that I absolutely loved this vet. I found that every single person was willing to listen to my concerns and help me come to a decision about things I had questions about. 

So nervous

Lily thought that this was probably the worst thing that had happened to her in months. What a baby. I think going to vets makes her very very nervous. When the vet came in she took a moment to lay on the ground and snuggle Lily (who had none of it), which meant a ton to me. It was nice to know that they were willing to spend a few extra minutes with her to see if she could calm down.

Since I loved the vet so much, I have already taken Lily back! Yes, you did read that right, I have already taken Lily to the vet twice in 10 days. A few days after the first visit I found this strange thing on her head. 

What is going on???

As you can see it looks a whole lot like a pimple, the big painful kind. I watched it for a few days and  when it doubled in size I decided that we should probably get it checked out. As we waited to go to the vet it kept getting even bigger. I will admit that this was insane, I was starting to freak out. If you google this, it is one of two things: not a big deal or a HUGE deal. 

So we get to the vet and they take a look at it and determine that it is kinda like a zit or a fire ant bite. So it was some sort of bump that had puss in it. Gross. The vet popped it and now Lily just has a little hole in her head. I am glad that we checked it out, I kinda feel like a dork but better safe than sorry.

I loved the vet at CityVet, we are using the one at Preston and Royal. Feel free to contact me for her name if you would like it, Lily and I give her our highest recommendation!
