An adorable puppy stands on its hind legs while queuing with the other dogs waiting for their anti-rabies shot.

The talented mutt was taken its owner to the free vaccination program organised by the city veterinarian office of Davao City, the Philippines on July 13.

Nurse Razel Belen, who helped administer the vaccinations, said the dog patiently waited for its turn despite looking nervous.

He said: "He was so funny because I could feel his knees shaking, but he was kind when I gave him the vaccine."

The cute pooch also stood behind a line to maintain social distance as instructed by his owner throughout the waiting time.

All pet owners have their own designated chair to keep social distancing while the dogs queue on the side.

Veterinary hospitals were affected when major regions in the country were placed in quarantine because of the pandemic.

Most of the pet owners had to put off scheduled vaccines until the lockdown was eased in June.
