Positive thoughts for the puppy, please

Notice the stink eye
From the scene of the (vaccination) crime
I took Napoleon to get his annual shots on Sunday, and he's been super pathetic since. I know the vaccinations are necessary and for his own good, but I still feel bad for the little guy.

He doesn't really want to go for his normal walks and isn't his normal playful self. I'm guessing he's sore from the shots and it just needs to work through his system, but in the meantime, he looks quite sad. He slept through his 7:30 p.m. walk last night and even cuddled with me, which is a sure sign that something is not right.

Here's hoping he feels better today, especially since he has to go back in a month for the remainder of his shots. It turns out that he's too little to tolerate all the shots in one day. He will surely spill his food bowl all over in retaliation of this injustice.

Oh, Napoleon! I hope you feel better soon. It's no fun when you look all pathetic and can't tell us what's wrong.

Poor little guy! Hmm, at least he is cuddly though? As soon as he is ignoring you again we will know he is okay! :)

Sad, but true!

Sending positive thoughts to Napoleon! It's always heart-breaking and worrisome to watch our pets suffering (and they can't even tell us what's wrong!) but I'm sure he'll feel better in no time!
