As you may of seen in the shout box we had a medical emergency on our hands with our precious boy, Kobi.
The phone call from the vets has just happened and I'm pleased to say he made it through surgery. Thank the lord! We are not out of the woods yet. The next 24 hrs are critical.
When he was opened up they found a 'foreign object' looks like a part of a foam ball of some sort, they said it was unbelievably mashed/icky. It was found blocking the intestine. It actually killed part of the intestine so they've cut away the dead part and attached the healthy parts together. His stomach was full of liquid backed up over time I guess. My head is a complete mess so I hope I'm relating this all correctly to you.
The vet will phone me in the next few hours and we'll get an update then. If he continues to recover well he'll spend the next 3 days or so at the practice.
Now, we don't have any foam balls so the little monkey must of picked it up somewhere and digested it. He will be the bloody death of me.
So please, keep those prayers continuing.
It's been the most horrendous 24hrs and we so very nearly lost that boy It was very touch and go prior to surgery. I've never seen a dog look the way he did, I swear to god. But he's a fighter and I just pray that he has a good recovery.
I'll be in touch soon with an update. Thank you so much for keeping him in your thoughts and prayers. It means the world to me x
