Very Nearly Lost MY Dog This Afternoon!
Lisa
1. My vet was not open on Sunday - I rang the Emergency number (actually the wife did as I was lying with my dog watching her closely and listening to any sign of laboured breathing) .... the vet said that if the breathing was normal it is probably not an emergency. The vet said that they would open the surgery for an assessment, but they may say "come back Monday".
2. They would not operate on a Sunday if not an emergency, and the vet said that the signs were not life threatening. Please bring her in on Monday if we are still concerned.
3. First available appointment 5:20pm Monday at the local surgery - they sent us to their bigger branch which has x-ray machines and endoscopy equipment and kennelling .... not an emergency, but they did the job Monday evening.
I doubt that treatment would have been available any earlier had I acted Sunday night ....... but, I am not about to be judged by the ScoobyNet idiots - I did what I saw right for my dog.
It's easy to shout and be negative .... it's the same people who moan about everything else from petrol prices to education to policing to emission limits - but they do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about it except moan on here and put people down ........... I'm happy to ignore then if you are

Píssy, PM me the dogs bloodline and a recent picture then as you promised to do before and failed.
It has nothing to do with you not taking action quicker either, before the kippers start.
It's Pissy Lewis we are talking about here, you know the Hans Christian Anderson of SN!!
Diesel, more kippers?

Love to the doggy if I'm being WAY to cynical here LOL, but you gotta have a chuckle even IF it is true

She seems settled ..... 4 weeks of Anti-Biotics mind you!!
2 weeks of 'on the lead' walks ..... that's not going to happen as she is under 'voice control' and I'm not putting a lead around her neck/throat.
5 days of pain killers.
She keeps visiting her dinner bowl .... so, she's feeling well enough to want to eat .... I'll give her some supper with the anti-biotics and painkillers inside
Thanks for your reasonable posts Lisa .....

- if the dog's not the verge of croaking it, lying in a giant pool of blood, or bones sticking out, they generally don't see it as an emergency.

Everyone knows that I go by the name of MrRee all over the net ...... I am famous for many places, not just ScoobyNet 
I'm coming to the conclusion that what Spoon and Diesel and the like yearn is my ability to string a few words together in a coherent sentence which stirs the souls of others and generates interest .... whilst their threads and posts disappear into the 'also-ran' ether Sad, so sad .......

Could you please string the words together in a coherent fashion? Even loosely making sense would give us a clue as to what you are going on about

You know the one that you posted on. You were ignoring people remember but you couldn't, what's that tell you.

Well done - you are at a disadvantage when crossing keyboards with me, I'd give up now if I was you.
Any news about those GSD Puppies?

At best I'd call you dillusional if you honestly think you stand a chance.
However, you cover your losses well. The puppies have disappeared but the reward has gone up to £3,000 thanks to 2 more £500 donations.
