yeah when my dex was neutered they sent me home with NO PAIN MEDS. I was stupid then and he had 10 teeth pulled. I was up all night as again i was STUPID and did not know about ER VET facilities so at 7 am i was all fired up at the vets office saying my dog has been in pain and i just laid on the floor all night petting him trying to keep him comfortable. They gave him a pain shot that morning and some pain pills to take home and i NEVER EVER went back to this vet as i was so upset as i was a new pet owner as dex was my first dog and I TRUSTED THEM.
I have had some wonderful experiences and have had to switch vets quite a few times and is why I have chose to make this my part time job to educate myself on this profession so I never feel helpless again.
This is why i help others as not everyone knows all this stuff as I sure as heck didn't so why i always assume a pet owner knows nothing and try to educate them from there as so many are out there the same as I was not knowing all these things.
Oh and dd was spay and dex was neutered with no blood work prior to that i am aware of and dd has mvd. I did not know you are suppose to have blood and urine checked prior to anesthesia
