I am so glad that Scooter is home safe and sound. I understand about you being anxious. Emergencies happen, and of course a life or death situation would take presidence over a dental. However, good customer relations would dictate a quick phone call to give a status report to clients who had pets waiting for surgery. I know that I would receive a call from someone in the practice if that type of situation arose and I would definately understand.
On the other hand, the time I had an emergency with two young pups and made a mad dash to the vet, I felt blessed that I was surrounded by 4 very qualified vets who left their client rooms to put heads together to figure out why I had two pups that appeared to have a seizure at the exact same time. It was a very busy day, but everyone was kind and understanding because they knew if it had been them in my place they would have received the same professional care.
btw - as it turned out one of the pups had found the only electrical cord in the living room, bit into it and got shocked - apparently the second pup was touching the first pup and got shocked as well. Both pups recovered and all was well. |
