This afternoon my six month old English Bulldog went to the vet for vaccinations,and by 10pm she had to be put to sleep.She had allergic reaction to the medication,and effected her breathing.The doctor came into room I was wating in and told me to come back,she begin to explain that she has her on oxygen,and that her gums were gray.I went back and started talking to her,but there was no response,not even with a treat in my hand.I immediately called my boyfriend to come up to meet us.The doctor said she wanted to take her to the emergency vet for futher observation, so we put her in the car with the oxygen tank,and I road with the doctor while following my boyfriend.As soon as we arrived the ER vets took over,and took her to a special oxygen cage.They let us come back to see her,and she was sitting up on her own,but still had a blank look on her face.The vets explained they wanted to take xrays to see what was gong on,and they would let us know.We left,and on the way home they called my boyfriend who was following me home,and told him she just went into cadiac arrest,so we rushed back.When we got there the doctor explained as soon as they took her for xrays she begin to vomit blood,and thats when it happened.She could no longer breathe on her own.They said they coul keep her on a ventilator,but she would have a small chance for survival for breathing on her own,I broke down,as well as my boyfriend.We had to make a choice,to let her live like that or let her go.I wanted to see her one last time.I walked back to where they had her,and some guy is pumping air into her lungs,as they monitor her heart,she had such a big heart.I couldn't watch anymore,and I made the call.I've had many animals,but never felt the way Ifelt about her, she always brought a smile to my face as everyone else.Don't take your animals for granted.I have to big dogs as well.I've been home almost an hour and it dosen't feel the same.My dog had problems with head tremors and this is how I found you guys,your website has been great,Thank you.Dawn dada
I am so sorry.....our prayers are with you..
