I've seen some similar posts about emergency room visits. The last one was the dog had pyometra (uterus infection) and was full of pus that was being discharged. The emergency vet advised immediate spay, hysterectomy at an outrageous price. The owner decided she didn't want to have it done because it was a valuable breeder. I, personally, would have, but the point I am getting at is that the emergency vet basically did nothing since she refused. They could have at least given her a shot of oxytocin since her cervix was still open (had recently given birth) to expel a good portion of the bacteria and given her an injection of antibiotics then she could have seen her regular vet in the morning for a spay at 1/4 of the cost, but they still gave her a bill for the visit and did nothing!!!??? The dog was okay, but it very well could have turned out differently.
I'm glad Boobear seems normal now. I would still have a blood work up done just to see if anything shows up though. |
