He’s feeling ok this morning though angry to be back in jail in my office. I feel bad it’s going into a long weekend when I’m not sitting in there all day but we’ll visit with him. He still had a bit of a limp so no running or jumping for a bit.
The vet hospital situation was frustrating when the closest place we drove too turned us away we called a few other places and they would take our info put us on hold go talk to a Dr and come back and say no. There was another family at the one place who ended up at the same vet as us. Their pup was playing with another dog got his eye hooked by a a tooth and needed the eye checked. The emergency vet we tried first said if it was scratched/punctured he could lose his sight but they still wouldn’t see him. The vet we ended up at stained it confirmed it was ok and they were gone in ten minutes.
The original place also had a euthanasia case come in taking 3 techs and a vet. The poor dog had not an ounce of fat or muscle it was a skeleton and had layers of open oozing wounds all over its body that weren’t new. I’m thankful that he/she was able to be laid to rest but that shouldn’t have been an emergency case late at night. Both my husband and I looked at each other and said our pets will never reach that stage. I realize everyone’s situation is different and it’s a very hard decision but the poor dog had been suffering for a long time.
