I think some of us on here would have asked did they do an xray before doing and endoscopy that may have saved this dog's life http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/mem...245-holly.html My Holly died today from lead poisoning. She was 6 months old. She has been in and out of the vet for over a month. At first they thought she had liver shunts, then encephalitis from toxoplamosis or neospora, then she got pneumonia and THEN on a chest x-ray the vet finally saw a metallic object, a lead craft weight. She endured a spinal tap, a brochoscopy and endoscopy. She had had lead poisoning all this time. Today her breathing became so irregular the vet called us in. We had been visiting twice a day. She was having seizures. We just didnt know what to do. Then she had another seizure while we were holding her and she stopped breathing. The vet gave her an injection and then she was gone. Oh how I loved her. Oh how I will miss her. So sad....So sad. Bet she wished we scared her into an XRAY
But I am sure some will come on here and say the pet owner must be mistaken lolllllllllllllllllllllllll
