don't underestimate

One of the worst things about puppies is their totally trusting nature. Ollie thought that we were just going for another fun car ride, one of his favorite things. And because he's so trusting, he never suspected that we were headed to the Pet Hospital, and that he was enjoying his final few minutes as a true boy puppy. I tried explaining to him why it's necessary to have this particular procedure done. That he's really not in a great position to be a father. That it will prevent disease. That it will really improve his relationship with other dogs. But I just don't think I got through to him.
