The owner of the company next door to ours, took his dog to the vet today. While sitting in the waiting room, a couple came in with their Daschund, looking for a refill on a prescription that the vet previously issued them. (The couple are new Canadians from Poland and their grasp of English is limited at best…)

The vet did not remember issuing them a prescription, so he asked some probing questions:

“What was the prescription for? What was wrong with your dog?”

“It was for his skin. You told us to get it at Shoppers Drug Mart. We got it, and have given it to him every day as directed. He does not like it at all, but we have made sure to give it to him. His skin did get better, but he had terrible diarrhea. When the prescription ran out, his diarrhea stopped, but we do not want the skin condition to come back.”

This response confused the vet greatly. As the couple did not have an appointment, he did not have their file ready. After a few minutes he returned with their file and said, “I did not give you a prescription last time you were here. I told you to go to Shoppers Drug Mart and buy a shampoo for dry skin!”
