    Default My dog's emergency surgery

    You do know that I have the most beautiful, perfect dog in the entire world, right? Her name is Jada Pinkett Smith and she is MY life!
    Well, today she's sitting with my best friend and I notice her try and bite my other dog, well more like snap at her. This has NEVER EVER happened. my other dog is like a mother to her, chews her raw hides, cleans her ears, beats up her oppressors...
    You get what I mean. Well, I notice this and say, "what the hell!"
    Since my baby never does this I go over to her to ask what the problem is. Well, there is blood coming out of ear. First thought, rupture of ear dum, closer look shows a torn ear, ripped up. My friend's dumb dog ripped a whole in ear.
    So I freak out, of course and run out to take her to the vet.
    The drug her and start to sew up the ear, of course I am holding her still and start to tear up a bit. The nurse offers to help and I freak out completely. They let me run out and cry for a while, a new nurse comes out with tissues, man this place is great.
    This is my reg. vet that actually loves my dog enough to fir her in. They didn't want to until they saw who it was and who I was, thank God!
    They see me a lot, my other dog has psychological damage from previous owners (it's a lot better, but still there.) I won't drug her, but have had tips on how to alleviate her misery. Note: she's hasn't peed herself in months, and it used to once a week.
    In any case, I do come back in to scratch Jada's butt, her fave, while they sew up this gaping whole in my 9lb dog.

    Well, she's tripping on a mixture of K and Valium, her head is swinging, her eyes are dialated and she is sad and confused. So I cry some more.
    I get home, I need to work and they won't let me skip without fining my ass over a hundred, it's not a child so who cares, right? I DO/
    Well, I can't leave her alone because I don't want her to hurt herself and I DO NOT want her to come out of it and not see me there.
    I sleep with this dogs in my arms and have only been away from her for a week in the three years I have known her.
    I guess this is one of those, my pet stories, BUT what do you do?
    All those what ifs.
    What if I hadn't been home?
    What if I didn't have the money?
    What if she was REALLY badly hurt?
    I hate the what ifs.

    My happy ending to this story is that I am looking at her right now. Her head is on her paws, she's not shaking. She just gave me a kiss.
    And a few minutes ago she growled and barked at absolutely nothing. My baby has survived the K Hole and is back!
    I don't know if this sotry means anything to anyone, but I've never had to face it before. So, to all those parents of any kind, I now know what it is to be in an emergency room and have you child operated on.
    Please don't lick me, it tickles..

    I've had to go through this twice.I know EXACTLY how this feels.It is so heart wrenching to see your furry little baby go through pain and trauma.It just rips your heart to shreds.God bless and speedy recovery for your little one.

    My cat went thorough this, too. She got a thread wrapped around her toe and had to go to ER vet. I took the money out of next week's mortgage payment and stayed up all night with her. Went to work on about 1 hour sleep.

    She was my baby, too. Really thought I was the mama cat, even used to suck on my sweatshirt like she was nursing. That was befoere I had my son, and it really made me realize what it is to be totally responsible for another living thing.

    I'm glad everything worked out OK.

    Oh sweetie, I'm glad she was okay.
    You should punch that dog that did that to her. Just punch it right out.

    Good Lord what a cutie!!!!! Glad she survived this ordeal, i don't know how to handle dogs that small. Sounds like she will be fine. My baby, as i am moving so, he is the last one with me 11 years old now!!! My friends have my other two, Shepherds and Pitbulls, and LOVE them. As they knew them for many years, so all went fine.
    Sorry had to share....LOVE ANIMALS

    Glad to hear that she's ok. And it sucks that you couldn't get out of work without being fined. My dogs are my children! Next to the hubby, they're the most important things!

    If I can find my freaking camera I'll put up pics of my new babies.

    @PAMELA! Your dog has the face of an ANGEL ! I am in love....*swoon*

    Gypsy, I feel your pain, Just a month ago my cat got this huge hematoma in the thin part of his ear. It 's like a vessel ruptures inbetween the layers and keeps bleeding. The whole thing swelled up and he had to have emergency surgery. Best 400 bucks I ever spent. I'd do it for any of my loved ones, why not the fuzzy ones? Some people just don't undertstand...

    Here's a pic of him wearing his "cone" He was SOOO miserable!

    (yay my 100th post!!)

    I'm glad she's doing better and didn't have to wear the CONE! My baby had to wear a cone when she was really young because she chewed off her own tail and even after the doctor sewed her back up she kept trying to chew off more of her tail so I had to put her on Prozac (he said she was OCD) and make her wear the cone to keep her from her tail. But she could still get her tail around the little sized cone and chew it so the vet gave me a cone that he had used on his doberman for my little bitty 7-pounder!

    some dogs will do anything to get a little tail, he he.
    Glad she's better, I was afraid I would have to put my opther dog on Prozac or somthing happy. She was pretty miserable when I first got her then she got better and then worse.
    Now I just have to catious when I come home so that she doesn't pee herself.

    I just took my dog to the park this week and while he was catching a ball, another dog came up and for no reason hit him in the side with his teeth. Well, $500 later and 10 stitches, he is all patched up.

    Why can't people socialize there dogs.

    Poor baby!
    I swear people who don't socialize their dogs should be shot. It's about the same as locking a human child in a basement, how are they going to relate to others of their kind?

    She's back to herself, the scar should be minimal.....

    OTB , the other day a guy stood in front of my dogs with his hand in a fist as if he was going to hit them. I wanted so badly to say, "If you hit them, they will bite your dumb ass and then I will sue you for animal abuse." My dogs have never bit anyone and they have no interest in poeple when they are on a walk. You CAN NOTR hurt an animal and then if they fight back it's their fault? Doesn't work that way, buddy.

    LOL, yeah.
    I understand some people are scared of dogs, I respect that......BUT when I am walking THREE dogs at once, trust me, they're harmless. they are more interested in urine on a tree than some person walking bye.

    If dogs could talk, the things they would say...
    I think they would tell all the dirty details that happen in the bedroom, so maybe it's a could thing they can't tlak to us..
    My injured dog would probably curse a lot... She just seems that way.

    If my dogs could tell my bedroom details,I would have to start doing some serious bribing(i.e. extra treats,tummy rubs,car rides,etc.)

    LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    lol, I always wonder about people with kids, I'm sure the things they tell to strangers!!!!

    I just wish I could bring my dogs into restaraunts, people with babies can, so why not me?
    My dogs are quieter, cleaner, more grateful and sometimes cuter than the kids I see in restaraunts.

    You should try googling some doggie friendly restaurants in your area.There's one,here in New Orleans where on Wednesdays,there's an all you can eat buffet for the pooches.Three Dog Bakery may have some cafe style places.

    We have a few outdoor restaraunts that allow dogs.. My BF works at one. It's nice, you just sit outside and the servers will brings you water and food if you order it for the dogs. Since he's one of the head chefs, my BF will make doggie friendly items.
