Not a clue got a few panicked texts while at work - I was with a patient so didn't see for a little while. Got one saying omg the dogs have killed something in the garden there's blood all over... Then oh no it's mitsy she's bleeding.....it won't stop there's so much blood! I finally rang other half and said ring the vet if it won't stop and as he thought there was something stuck in there he rang and they said bring her down. Nothing stuck but deep cut inbetween pads. She's had pain killers antibiotics and has to go back next week for a check up. They also took out what we thought was some sort of implant in her chest that turned out to be part of the pin set up that was holding her hip together!

I dont mean to be the burden of news but you know you could have done this yourself and saved a fortune? Not the money side but your pet would have appreciated you doing the work. (obviously within reason)... I know this sounds bad but vets are only in it for the ££££££..... our bitch who was pregnant went into labor, everything was going well untill a pup got stuck, I rushed her to the vets and they basically said, "If you dont have £900 right now to pay we will do nothing and both pups and mom will die".... we phoned other vets and the same story. Vets today do not give a crap about the animals, its just another commercialized lets get rich quick crap hence why I would have done it mysellf (obviously not the emergency C-section, we DID pay it ofacuse and all pups survived and homed with wonderful owners, we kept one of the pups that ironically was the one that got stuck!)

Given the option of trying to diagnose the problem while stemming the bloodflow or taking her to the vet, I think I'd have chosen the vet like pixi did.

Have to say, my local vets seem to want to know if you have insurance or can pay before they even look at the animal
