Just talked to the vet, he was not doing good overnight. Vet tells me he had to do emergency surgery, I guess he had a puncture in his intestine that they had to repair. Then he tells me they had a problem with the operating tables heating pad and it put a bad burn on his back.. WTF.. Then he tells me he is not out of the woods yet, may not know for 3 or 4 days. I am heartbroken but where do you draw the line? How much do you put him thru?? As of now I owe the vet $2000.. I can't take anymore stress...WTF

Dave, I'm real sorry to hear this, Smokey is one great (wild & crazy) dog!

Hope this all works out and Smokey gets good quick

my friend lu's dog hat got hit by a car and it's intestines got knocked into a different spot than where they were supposed to be
and nobody ever knew it... eventually after it was discovered
they turned them around and straightened them out again and the dog was fine after that...

So the ability for your dog to recover is phenomenal
is my point...


an intestinal hole...? though

thats a whole different problem. geesch
i've never even heard of that in a dog before.

I'm so sorry to hear this Dave...
of Smokey getting ill. I hope he feels better fast.
Hang in there and i hope you get some stress relief too.......soon.
