Bad day...


Today turned into a bad day for my puppy Tucker. I took him to be neutered today and to get his shots and instead he had an adverse reaction to the anesthesia. As the vet put it "he just about tanked on us." He gave him the shots, but we will have to try again in another 2-3 weeks for the neutering. The vet said they have some extra precautions they can take and Tucker should be fine. He was going to send him home and gave me some instructions for tonight, but when he came back with Tucker he had changed his mind and wanted to keep him overnight. He was still pretty out of it and he wanted to get some fluids into him and monitor him a bit more. Geez Louise, you worry that everything is going to be okay when you take them and you get there to pick them up thinking everything is fine and you get hit with something like this. Maybe if I hadn't worried he would have been fine.
