Thanks everyone. They did do a blood test before the surgery and he did great, I'm not sure what kind of anesthesia they used we are still trying to get answers but here is what we have so far. He did great the whole surgery and when she was closing him up he started to have shallow breathing and the took the tube out and started doing mouth to mouth. They gave him injections to try to jump start his heart and nothing worked, so we got the call.... We were so devastated that the vet is paying for the autopsy and is updating us every step of the way. They did the initial autopsy and said he had a liver shunt and enlarged kidney but, seeing as though he couldn't make it though this surgery having the surgery for the liver shunt would have had the same outcome. Also this is just the INITIAL autopsy they still haven't got the results back for all the samples they sent out. I wish I would have say the signs earlier but I thought it was just normally puppy stuff but he didn't eat much, he was always tired even after just 10 mins of walking and he drank water like a fish. We would go through a half gallon of water the last 2 weeks.
