This is so classic for a Corgi reminder of life.

I went to bed, after work and a rather long day of the usual crazyness. Why oh why did I ever assume that nothing would happen, heck its only April Fools after all.

Alright, Here it is...

I was rustled awake at around four p.m. ( only 5 hours of sleep) by my brother, he had said that there was a problem and ploped Jazmin on my bed, at first I didn't notice as I check for the usual major issues ( blood, broken bones, limping and yelping). I noticed a chew bone around the bottom of her jaw, it was one of those circular chew bones that you can get, ya know with the holes in the middle. It was wrapped fully around her bottom jaw and her front canines had locked it in place.

So, off to the vets we go... I get to Banfield, two rather exuberant dog owners wouldn't move out of my way with a very, very unhappy dog scratching and wiggling due to the chew bone around the bottom of her jaw. They were too busy taking up unecessary space yapping about nothing really important ( yes, I hate people that isle lounge unless there is a necessary reason or your out of the way of traffic).

The vet assistant was nice, she ushered us in to a room rather quickly. About 5 min later two vet tech's came in and Jazmin dissapeared. The doctor followed in to the room a minitute or two later informing me that Jazmin would have to be put under to remove the bone. I agreeded without any issues and off my brother and I went to eat something as we were both hungry. They were going to call me when she was finished so I left my phone number at the front desk.

We went to Wendy's to grab some Lunch/Dinner, waited eagerly for a phone call either way. I guess it was about 30 min and the phone rang. They informed me that the chew bone was removed and she would be ready to go in about an hour.

So an expensive bill later the pup is happy again. As a bonus though a rescue group did show up at Petsmart so she got lots of post trauma pettings and treats galore. She even managed to get my brother to buy her a bag of chew stick treats due to the incident.

Anyways, she is home now and on pain medication and some special mouth wash stuff. I most def. did go thru her treat boxes and remove any possible treats that may cause issues.

 

Sincerely,

Don and Crew

ooh, poor Jazmin! She must have worked really hard at it to get that bone stuck on her jaw. Glad they fixed it quick!
