Michelle, I am just now reading this and I'm so sorry that happened. It's just uncalled for IMO. Apologies are great, but heating pads come with warnings, too. I'm certain that they malfunction with age or when someone doesn't check on how hot they are. A doggie that is under anesthesia can't get up and move.
Connie is usually on here at night. You might PM her. Wasn't it her dau that worked with this woman that had the yorkie/maltese? She should be able to find out the latest updates...
This makes me feel weak in the knees. I'm supposed to take Kacee in on the 21st.
