Even though we have only been to this veterinarian 2 times in the past 2.5 years, she could tell 20 meters from the entrance that this is NOT a place that she wants to go and resisted walking with me. I outweigh her by a cool 90 kg or so and therefore this was a tug of war that I would definitely win but instead, I just picked her up and carried her inside.
My grandmother had a dog, who would recognize the vet from 20 meters as he got some shots once from the guy. Every time the vet passed in front of the property, the dog was barking like crazy, wanting to tear the chain and bite the vet. Dogs don't forget 🙂
yeah it's pretty amazing what they can selectively remember. If we went there all the time I would understand a bit better but we have only ever been there one time before. I'm pretty impressed at her memory but I guess that is why she is able to poop in almost exactly the same spot every day even if we take different routes.
