I just have no words....

Moses Mama · 06-24-2011, 08:58 PM

Please let us know how she is doing! I hope she recovers with no problems!

capt_noonie · 06-24-2011, 09:10 PM

What is the name of the vet and the clinic? This is horrible! I hope your baby recovers well.

Princess10 · 06-24-2011, 10:07 PM

Wow, that is truly unbelievable! You're not wrong at all for being mad, I would be raising hell! I'd do as others have suggested & get the word out about this via complaints, reviews, whatever. That vet is obviously lacking some serious common sense & judgement.

Mom to Hot Rod · 06-24-2011, 10:12 PM

That is horrible! No way, I would definitely report them. That is just inhumane. I hope your poor baby girl will not be scarred from this and that she will be able to trust open and unconditionally. Please give her extra hugs and TLC.

To me this is cruel and barbaric. She was not fighting for her life and once they could not anesthetize her, they, OF COURSE should have stopped the procedure and called you. To do an elective procedure on an unanesthetized dog is like vivesection to me! I would lodge complaints with every organization possible as this vet needs to be in another profession - one that does not involve living and breathing creatures. A vet with no better judgment than this should be judged for this kind of cruel behavior and have the scapel removed from his/her hand permanently. I would request my money back and a formal apology as well as an investigation into this unethical behavior.

Wow! Just wow! I'd be fuming, and I guarantee you that I would have been hauled outta there by the police. I would write them up, contact the BBB, annihilate them in vet reviews of their business, call the vet board, and get ahold of a local news station to let them know that the people in your community shouldn't take their pets to this non-feeling individual.

I hope your baby heals, and the pain meds are sufficient. I'm so sorry something like this happened to you.

dispatcher · 06-24-2011, 11:24 PM

How terrible, I cannot beleive they went ahead and did the surgery, your poor baby! I hope she gets to feeling better soon. You certainly are not wrong to feel the way you do.

AbbyMax · 06-25-2011, 04:20 AM

That is horrible! You are absolutely right to be mad! Max and Abby will not being going in for a few months, but I will make sure to tell my vet that if a similar situation arises to call me before they proceed. I hope your baby is doing okay now.

I would certainly file a complaint. Also, when I was selecting a vet, I not only asked friends for recommendations, but I read many on-line reviews. The on-line reviews are read by a lot of potential patients.

lady40jay · 06-25-2011, 05:00 AM

Oh, goodness, your poor little girl! I would be absolutely furious and would definitely file a complaint. Vets are supposed to be helping animals, not torturing them. I hope your little one recovers quickly and completely.

I cannot believe they did that to your baby! To let a pt feel a spay (basically a oophorohysterectomy) is unconscienable (sp)! I would take EllieMay's advice and report them and find another vet. I would not trust that dr w her again. I am so sorry this happened to you and your little one!

ladyjane · 06-25-2011, 05:48 AM

OMG I am just sick to my stomach. Yes, you should file a complaint. You also should send them a certified letter demanding your money be returned. None of that will make up for what happened to her; but perhaps it might help another pup.

That poor baby...I just cannot believe this.

LisaD · 06-25-2011, 06:00 AM

Poor Baby, I can't believe this. How cruel to do this too your little one.

shodanusmc · 06-25-2011, 06:04 AM

So sorry to hear that. That vet should have surgery will almost asleep! Find another Vet.

LoALAnna · 06-25-2011, 06:52 AM

This is every pet owners nightmare! I'm SO sorry your baby girl had to endure this. I agree with everyone about posting complaints wherever you can, also think about doing it on Angie's List, too. Maybe this will help, and this so-called "vet" will experience enough of a decline in business that it will put a hurtin' on her!
