ON THE BACK BURNER

Poor Noodle had to go to the Vet today. He has what a lot of dogs seem to be troubled with. His ears. He scratches and cries and shakes his head. The Vet we saw wasn't our usual one. This time we saw his partner, a woman. She was so motherly to Noodle, commiserating about his ears as she cleaned them. She was so gentle. I have to admit, that our regular Vet poked Noodles ears with long Q tips to clean them out. The lady Vet, gently wiped his ears with cotton balls. And then she put some lotion on them. Noodle was swooning by this time. I don't know if this is a comment on women veterinarians, but it made me rethink who I might want to schedule Noodles's follow up visit with.
