It was moving like a ballbearing but today it blocked him. I had to bring him to his local vet to have a catheter put in to push the stone back into the bladder. Unfortunately Cornell has been insanely busy and they can't fit Brodie in until Sept 15th. My local vet is concerned that the stone is going to block his urethra again - and so am I. This is so frustrating for Brodie and I both. I just wish I could make him healthy  |
Oh gosh, I am so sorry to hear this. We all know you've tried your hardest to get him healthy. Hang in there. With your persistence and love, I am sure you will get him there. I just feel so bad for you right now, I am sure this was a heartbreaking and depressing setback. I know you just want him to feel good and get past all these procedures.
Brodie and you will be in my thoughts, you are such a good dog mommy to Brodie.
