Does anyone know what "DUDE" is the vet speak for?
Sherry Trifle

Took my mogs for their booster jabs today, one of them had kicked up a right fuss when he needed an antibiotic jab for an abscess last time he was there (his first visit to the vet with me since I got him from the RSPCA).

I saw on the PC screen today that they'd made note of how feisty he had been, and amongst the notes in capitals amongst the lower case lettering was "DUDE".

Just wondered if anyone here knew what that meant, like is it vet code for something?

Oh, and he kicked up a fuss again today, poor little love, obviously scared of vets and needles but was spoiled with tuna when I got them back home again.

Dude Factor - Survival scoring factor based on social worth. A high dude factor = an individual of questionable social worth who survives near-fatal injuries. A low dude factor = professional person who slips in the bathroom sustaining a fatal injury

Thanks, but don't think that was it
