i have a feeling that he *does* appreciate your attempts to help! cuz if he *really* resented what you were doing, he'd have let you know in *no* uncertain terms!!! the fact that he bobbed at you *with dewlap UNextended* is a major indicator of that ~ that is definitely an NON-aggressive bob, maybe to just acknowledge "yeah there's something goin' on back there humommy, thanx for checkin' it out ..."
... and even tho he appreciates the helpful attempts, he's still a bit annoyed about the whole thing so he has to kinda stomp off + give you dirty looks ... hey, he's gotta blame *someone* for this + it can't be *his* fault!!! *grin*

it *does* sound like you 2 are doing great! it's obvious that he trusts you, *really* trusts you and all giggling aside, that's an indicator that you've done a heckuva good job!!! it's no easy trick to *earn* the trust of an ig!

tech. question ~ did the vet squirt a bit of KY into the tail-end of his vent last time? wonder if it's possible for you to do that + maybe help loosen and/or prevent future build up???

very best wishes!
Bon.
