So sorry to hear about your loss. yes it was very hard for us. We now have the files from the vet and he injected metacam, and gave us the meds to give to the dogs, while both dogs had already kidney problems. We learned now, that Metacam is a pain medication for arthritis and after an operation, but it can kill a pet with kidney problems. Our pets both had tainted food and still got metacam on top of it, which made matters worst. We will not step foot ever again into this vets office. He didn't do a blood test, instead he took a film of the back, which we never got to see, cause there was nothing wrong with the spine.
Well all the best to you and thanks for caring.
Babs
