Hi, as the title states I just want other opinions on the situation as I’m not sure if I’m overthinking things.
I got a puppy, and took him to the vet for his first wellness exam and vaccinations. The first appointment went ok although nothing specific was said I felt like the Vet was talking down to me during the appointment. Whatever, didn’t think much of it as I just assumed that is maybe how the Vet talks.
Fast forward to the second appointment. I had to bring my 6 month old with me as my partner was working which was no problem I take both the baby & puppy places alone all the time. The vet came in and saw the baby and said “Wow, I don’t know why people do this” when I asked him what he meant he proceeded to say “get puppies when they have babies at home, I’ll never understand it”. I just shrugged the comment off and the appointment continued, when he asked me what food the puppy was on (Purina Pro Plan) he chuckled then repeated the food brand.
The situation just rubbed me the wrong way as I don’t feel the comment was necessary and the bed side manner isn’t the best, and I’m really considering switching clinics over it as I don’t want to feel judged every time I need to bring my dog in. I completely understand the concern of having a puppy and baby at home but I feel like there is a better way to address it.
