MICROCLOTTING IN DOGS?

[madman101]

Walking my dog right before a meal was exactly the wrong thing to do.  And I figure that Busybody Narcissist took so long, walking my dog, because she probably fed him a hamburger or something.  Containing carbs - processed wheat grain.  More exactly wrong.  Then, following this up, expanding stomach more, with water - more wrong.  All life-

So sorry for you to have to make that final decision. You know him best and know what is best for him. Better a day early than a day too late. Can you have the Vet come to your house to do it? Lot less stressful for dog.

Thank you.

That's interesting. Would work for me. My guess is probably not. Do vets actually do that? I don't think they have a lot of time in larger cities.

I'll ask the clinic.

Yes some Vets do this, also look for mobile Vets in your area. I have had it done and it's really nice for pets to pass in a stress free place on their own bed.. Also better on the owners too. The worst part is waiting for the Vet to come, I remembered one time I changed my mind at the last minute.

Hmmm...

Well, listen. I have doubled up on his gas meds, and I am kind of, secretly hoping for some miraculous, Hail-Mary chance to change my mind! He is also started on Synthroid again...

But, since I was under an official time constraint, I was forced to take the earliest appointment I could get. I was rather amazed I got one for Tuesday, with an apparently good vet. So, there isn't time to switch to someone else.

Thank you, though! I can imagine that the waiting would have been hell.
