Just had my yearling vaccinated (2nd one) and it took three attempts first he moved back when the needle went in and vet didn't follow, second vet put it in him he went up and the needle came out bent, third time got the needle in, he rears vet drops the contact and leaves syringe hanging when returned to the ground vet lunges forward squeezes syringe he goes up and spends the next few moments on his hind feet, I don't understand why vet was taking so long to do a simple jab on asking she said she was trying to make sure she didn't have any blood in the syringe, never in thirty years have I seen a vet try to do this with a simple flu and tet vaccination, me feeling slighty annoyed sends vet off never to return. My problem is that he is a sensitive soul and needs quiet handling. I'm concerned that this bad experience is going to effect him in the future, any suggestions on the next steps forward?
