Having spent one too many nights at the Emergency vet...so by experience only, I think that the vet more than likely needed to stabilize the dog first, some tests require sedation etc., I'm guessing that vitals etc., presented within acceptable limits of allowing them time to stabilize, monitor, prepare etc., had the dog gone in to a state of decline things probably would have moved along much faster. Remember each case is different, circumstances usually dictate order of procedures, I think!

Also, many times words get lost in translation to us distressed owners, she may not recall all that was explained to her at that time so her relay of info. may be "off".

I am so glad that everything worked out though, its hard to believe people can be so callous toward animals, I hope he is up and about quickly!
