[NAGDU] Billings clinic

[d m gina]

Yesterday I was picked up by a van from the Billings clinic to go to a 
doctor appointment.
The lady started unlocking my gate, I shared I would be glad to do this 
when folks find it easier to brake the lock than open gate.
She got in a huff saying I didn't want help from anyone.
I shared that would be fine to help if anyone would replace the broken 
part on the gate.
I smiled getting into the van.
Then making conversation I shared a few months ago I dropped the leash 
getting out of the van with my cane where the dog decided to take a strole.
Even when I called her she stopped but had plans to take a nice walk 
down our block.
The driver asked me if she could get the dog, I shared that would be 
kind of you.
Well after lady left I corrected dog because this wasn't going to be a 
game played many times over.
We live on a busy stree, where I was waiting for her to get hit.
The lady shared that the pals department was working on taking my dog away.
That I was mean to my dog had no respect for the dog, and I didn't 
deserve the dog.
My rely was it is good to know what is happening how far have you gotten?
Reply was not far we don't know school you got this dog from.
I have Julie's harness with no school name on it.
Also a leash same way no school ame on it.
I must say I was shaken when I know all I try to do is keep missie in 
control in a public building.
Lady shared that she knew I had three dogs taken away from me.
I explained that wasn't true. Her reply was then that roomer had to stop.
We get to the clinic where she starts talking to dog.
I asked her not to do this just speak to person who trained with dog 
and they will give commands.
She shared I didn't know what I was talking about and the dog knew nothing.
I asked her to stop enough was enough.
I get into building where she asks someone to take me up to my place of 
appointment.
Not to talk to dog or touch it even though it is something that must be done.
I did get to the second floor asking immediently to speak to a manager.
I shared that I was threatened to have my dog taken away from the pals clinic.
He asked if I got hit and I said no, I shared what happened, sharing 
that my training for the dog was from set school, and I wasn't going to 
change a thing.
I want to be left alone on how to travel with my dog making sure she is 
well behaved in a setting as a clinic.
Then I kept going up to the top.
Way to the top.
The lady shared with me she understood getting hold of staff in the pals area.
I can't train dog if she doesn't make mistakes.
Showing her doors elevators and much more as we are all trained to do 
in set schools.
This is not the first time this problem has happened in set clinic.
It was so bad seeing eye said they wouldn't take me back because they 
had to many complaints from set clinic.
Complaints as muzzle was on to tight, boots are on dogs feet, prong 
collar shouldn't be used at all.
Corrections are not allowed in clinic.
Where when I brought her home, she had springs in her feet. If she 
thought something was good to look at behind her, she would jump and 
turn around.
I picked her up by the middle of the harness sitting her down saying we 
are going this direction.
That never happened again.
Someone decided that it was ok to have her jump in their lap.
I shared this wasn't part of the training. Getting her down again, she 
did get corrected to let her know this wasn't going to happen again.
I am giving clinic another chance where if this doesn't stop I am 
feeling I can charge pals for harassment.
Just thought I would share.
I went home by uber I didn't want to go home with the same lady having 
more problems.
The ride to the clinic is free to those who are patients of the clinic.
A grant is given to them so it isn't as though they are paying for set grant.
Thanks for reading.
