I can't beleive I'm writing this, I'm so numb and in shock, my sweet baby died during surgery this morning, she had a twisted bowel and didn't make it. My God. I have always read other post where peoples pet have died but it's my baby this time, I don't know what I'm going to do without her, I loved her so much, everything in this house speaks of her, my GOD, my GOD NO.

This is terrible! I am so sorry. My Saint Bernard died of torsion quite unexpectedly one afternoon, at the age of 7. I nearly ripped my heart out. I'm so sad for you.

I'm so sorry! I lost my puppy during surgery, due to a reaction to the anesthetic. It was such a hard loss! My heart goes out to you.

I too work for a vet and can tell you from more than 3 yrs of vet ER experience that this is very concerning and can be life threatening. Please keep a very close eye on your pup and take her to the ER if she's feeling worse. If the x-rays show the suspicious area is moving, your vet will continue to monitor but if it isn't going anywhere, you need to get her into surgery. It is expensive for something like this and can be devistating to anyone faced with it. If your vet takes care credit, please try to apply. Many vets and ER clinics have a credit program for unexpected medical bills, care credit is just one of them. There are some interest free options also if you qualify and the vet offers them. This has made a huge difference between getting care and having to potentially euthanize many pets.

Things to watch for are: increased vomiting or blood in the vomit, lack of energy (lethergy,) difficulty walking, pale gums or breathing changes. If you see any of these things use the emergency number your vet should have provided you.

I hope everything goes ok tonight and your pup does fine tomorrow! Please keep us updated.

I just wanted to say, thanks for the heads up on this credit program, this is what made her surgery possible, if not for you I wouldn't have known about this and been bold enough to ask for help. Thanks friend. At least we did all we could for her, for that my mind is at ease.
