Dog unexpectedly died today
Hey everyone, I’m feeling super sad right now, my beloved 2.5 year old pug died a few hours ago. She started acting strange yesterday afternoon (basically she was pacing & panting) but she was still eating & drinking & going potty normally so we didn’t call the vet until today, they said to just keep an eye on her & feed a bland diet, a couple of hours later she had been sitting hunched over sitting in my lap & when I got up she kind of rolled off the chair then walked a few feet & fell over on her side. We called the vet again & they said she needed to be seen but they couldn’t see her because they were too full, my husband ended up calling multiple emergency vets trying to find someone who could see her, finally found one that had a 5 hour wait, she died in his arms while he waited in the car.
I just feel so mad that no one triaged her, maybe it wouldn’t have made a difference but at least I would have felt like we truly tried to help her, I hate that she died in pain & I wasn’t there to comfort her too (I was home w/ our 3 year old daughter) She was the sweetest, cuddliest, friendliest dog I’ve ever owned. I feel sick & miserable thinking about how young she was & frustrated that we don’t know what happened. I would post a picture of her but I don’t think I can look at pics right now, she was very cute, everyone who met her instantly loved her. Hug your furry friends close tonight everybody.
(And may I just say a giant F U to the year 2020 I’m so sick of how much you suck!!!)
