Henny @ The White Coats...AGAIN. UPDATE #18 NOT GOOD

[chocolatepuppy]

I'm glad Henny is going to be ok. Sorry about all the stress. It's so hard when they're sick. Please don't feel guilty, how could you have known? Healing vibes headed Henny's way.

This is not at all your fault. You should not feel guilty about a thing. That vet is the one to blame. I mean, you even asked if he wanted to do xrays. HELLO!! And with the mistake or oversight on his part he'd better let you work out a payment plan. Had he taken xrays two months ago it may not have gotten to this point. I mean, she probably still would have had to have surgery, but it wouldn't have been such a dire emergency and last minute type of thing.
Oh, I am just so sorry you and Henny had to go through all of this. I hope she is home with you very soon and on a quick road to recovery.

Poor sweet Henny-penny. Give her a hug for me, okay? The best part about Wolfies is that they are big enough to hug!

I'd let the Better Business Bureau know about that first vet, as this was a serious oversight on his part.

Bless your heart!!!! Poor Henny, what a rotten vet!!!!! I agree completely with Cindy, if he had done the xrays he would have found it two months ago and saved you and Henny all of this stress and upset. My best wishes and lots of prayers for both of you.

The vet could have found something still in her gut if they did the surgery on time, I would try to negotiate the price due to this. I am glad he is doing better.

Oh the poor thing!!

Glad the vet (finally) found it and she's on her way to a speedy recovery!

The price is $1500. As I am kind of a push over I sent Josh. He's not happy about it. My big thing is not only that he said we didn't need the xray last time but this time when the first one didn't come out clear enough he did a second regular one before switching to barium on the third for better viewing. If he would have used the contrast on the second try he would have been for sure on the blockage sooner, able to do the surgery Fri instead of an emergent surgery Sat and gotten her home sooner as well.

I feel like I'm being played to make a buck. Either that or he's just a horrible vet.

UPDATE: She's home and the total was $1700. She's supposed to wear the e-collar for two weeks and she can barely go 5min with out freaking out. I don't know what to do I've been crying for the last 20 min. Does the collar really need to stay on that long?
