Must be a Queensland Healer!

Crank up the gas to 11. What he don’t know won’t hurt him.

Yeah, I got a problem- he’s not wearing a mask!

He’s there to lick your wounds

I would have a problem with one who didn’t know to wait until the patient was under before starting.

They used peyote for anesthesia.

Nope, not with the dog… there’s a good chance he’ll do a better job than you!

What I actually have a problem with is…

…BEING…… AWAKE!!!!

Well, alrighty then, Bleeb, moving briskly into position to observe the nurse. It appears as though you are now fully recovered from your battlefield mishap and time spent in h*ll.

Get me OUTTA heeeere‼️

That looks like some lab work.

Count the bones before he closes.

Shouldn’t the dog be wearing a mask?

Better the dog than a cat. Cats wouldn’t apply anesthesia

He does a really good job of cleaning up the leftovers, too.

put them to the ultimate test

Just for laughs, he will install a squeaker.

“We couldn’t get a purebred, because your insurance only covers generic.”

After he stitches him up, the dog kicks its hind legs as it does after a poop.

I hope Bleeb doesn’t fall into the patient like that Junior Mint in the Seinfeld episode.

Service dogs, no. Service dogs with scalpels, YES!

The anaesthetist seems a bit behind
