Puppy Scare

Written on March 5, 2003 – 9:31 pm

Our pup, Kody, gave me a scare yesterday. I got home and she was fussing. She has something in her mouth or something that she was desperately pawing at. She was eating like a crazy fog trying to get it out. She kept running to me and jumping up, like she was trying to tell me to help her. I felt so bad and was somewhat freaking cause I didn’t know what was going on.

I called the vet. They were closed. I paged the vet. He told me to talk to the emergency clinic and that it was probably a stick wedged in her teeth or something. I called the clinic and the girl explained what it could be and that if I could get her to hold still long enough I might could get it out. So when my husband got home, he held her down and I picked it out. It was wedged across the roof of her mouth. Like if she’d bit on the stick and both ends snapped making it get stuck. I felt so bad, but she was so happy when we got it out for her.

After the day I had…to come home to a dog that is clearly having problems, I was just freaking out.

    Poor puppy! That would be scary. But at least she’s going to be okay. Thanks to her owners. :) Pets can sure scare us sometimes.

              OH, I’m so glad she’s okay now! Poor puppy! Isn’t it strange the trouble they can get into sometimes??? Max is still a puppy even at 1 year old now. He get’s into trouble all the time. Gotta love ‘em though. Right now I’m on a campaign for Scott to let me have a 2nd puppy for company for Max! LOL! It’ll never happen!

                That would have freaked me out. Puppies are always getting into something. I have a 12 week old puppy right now and am constantly watching her!

                I’m glad to hear your’s is fine!
