What a quiet Hallowe'en
night we spent. Where did all
the ‘‘trick-or-treaters’’ go? In
the past. two, or three years we

have had only about 25 kids’
come to the door, compared to -

40 or 50 years before that. Can't
even blame it on the weather as
it was a beautiful ‘night for
walking. Guess all of the
smaller kids have grown up and
we haven't had an influx of the
younger generation. Starts to
make a person feel.their age.

1 had the opportunity to

spend a brief time at the Animal

Hospital awhile back — my dog.

had to have an operation, While
waiting my turn to see the doc-
tor, discovered there was an ig-
uana in for its shots. When his
master brought it out of the
treatment room, shivers ran up
and. down my spine and 1
couldn’t help but go ‘‘Yuk’’,
After unceremoniously plunk-

ing it down on his friend’s lap,
from the look onthe friend’s

face, -he wasn’t too. sure if that
was the best place for it — he
asked me if I’d like to hold it, |
politely said ‘‘No thank you’’.
Then there was the lady who
brought in two smali pups of.
the Heinz 57 breed over which
two small girls ooohed and
ahhhed. Who can resist a pup-
py, right? There. was. a- large
golden retriever, a big furry cat

in a cage (all the way from the

Hazeltons), a terrier and a poor
old german shepherd who look-
ed really sick. She just laid
down on the floor and didn’t
move except to watch people’s
feet, probably thinking,
“Please don’t step on me or
make me move, as [ am just too
sick to ‘get up out of your way.”

Then as I was waiting for my
dog to come out of the treat-
ment room I looked across the
room.,,.and looked again! There
was alady holding something
with a harness on and the ears

pig?’ With a big smile on her

face she nodded. For lack of

another response, I just said
“Qh, cutel”’ —- .

What a-busy place, but even
as busy as it was, the doctor
made time to explain what hap-
pened during surgery and what
to expect when we got home.
You know, it felt just like our
human-type medical clinics. For
dogs and other animals who
~ think they’re people, it’s not a

bad place to go, syas my dog as

he's wrapping his legs around
my leg and locking up at me

‘with tears in his eyes, saying

“Please don’t leave me again."

What could 1 say?
