Today has been a rough one, may be in the top three of worst days ever.
Last night the family and I went to our son's swim meet, came home to find Bindi in her kennel having a seizure. We get her to the animal ER and they take her into the back immediately for treatment. After a quick evaluation the doctor gives us the best options to move forward, shout out to animal medical staff, we agree to do whatever it takes to get her to feel better, she was only seven months old so her chances of survival were in her favor. We go home and the clinic updates us whenever her condition changes. After four hours or so we got the call that while she is on a heavy medication she is fine but when it starts to wear off the seizure starts again. The next option was to intubate her and keep her on a cocktail of medications but her chances of making it were slim and there was a high chance of brain damage so we had to make a very difficult call to let her go. It's been a rough ten hours.
This came out of no where, we checked the yard to see if she ate something but there's a chance that it was something that was bound to happen.
Earlier in the day Bindi and I were playing out in the yard, then she would chase me while I mowed the lawn. I don't know the point of this but I had to get it out somewhere. I lost my best friend today.....
For me, give your pups a hug today, much love to all of you.
