Date Posted: 01:58:28 08/09/09 Sun I am moved to Appleton....but it hasn't been a smooth ride. My dog, Shane had an ear infection so I took him to the vet for it, and for his hips, and then today...after he ate he got sick. I just thought he was not feeling well, no big deal, so I just left him alone. Hours later he still was laying on the floor, breathing raggedly. Finally, I'm embarassed to admit...my mom tells me to call a vet, but it's Saturday so I'm thinking...whose going to be available. He was looking so bad by this time (9pm) that I called and they said to bring him in. I knew it was going to be expensive and I'm tapped out right now, but I decided to bring him in. I had to carry him (with some help) to the car and he was breathing really shallow. I realized how desparate the situation was. I drove him to the animal hospital and seconds before I pulled up I realized he wasn't breathing. I knew he was gone. They told me he died from eating too fast and his intestines could've twisted or something like that. His stomach was distended. I feel a little guilty that I didn't respond quicker, but I also know I may have had to euthenize him anyway. It would've costed $1000's of dollars to put him in the hospital and do surgery. Anyway, that is my sad tale. I'm in shock over it. I'm getting his ashes brought to me in a couple of weeks. Shane has been with me for 11 years. It's awful that this had to happen before I even got settled here. I think he would've liked it here. I will not get another pet, however, until I have my own home because apartment living is too hard. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
