Good luck Thursday. Will you have lab results right away or have to send out and wait?

Also, I meant to ask you, how do they take blood pressure on a dog? I never thought of it, and haven't seen it done. Is there a BP cuff for canines? Just curious.
Yes, they do take B/P on a pup...that is what scared the heck out of me this past week...hers was 300. It is not just like the b/p that they do with us...they have a pulse in their paws. They put a microphone there and tape it n place and then listen.

Not sure if we will do in house or send out. I will leave that to the vet to decide.

Thanks!
