Poor Little Flash....
Today I left work after grooming 3 dogs and a cat. One German shepherd, one golden retriever, and a yorkie. The cat was a persian with LOTS of hair. Anyway, I finally got them done at 3:00 left and went to the grocery store. Walked in the door with my cart and my phone rang...
You know that tone in someone's voice that says this is not good, something's wrong, well, that was the tone my husband had when he said my name. "Sarilda.....(long pause......) Flash (my 6 month old basset hound who just got neutered Wed) has been run over. (another long pause.......)He's not dead he just can't use his back legs." I left my cart, had enough sense to take my purse with me and ran back to the van, crying of course. He said he would bring him in and got off the phone.
I almost croaked. Went back to work and told them he had gotten run over and they turned on the xray machine and got everything ready....and we had to wait for 40 minutes. That was so totally nerve racking.
Anyways, poor ittle Flash has a broken leg and a broken pelvis. Actually, his femoral head is broken off of his "knee" and has to be removed. We are doing surgery on Tuesday to give him time to get recup a little from the surgery on Wed. My boss said he wanted him stable.
Poor little Flash is at the vet's office waiting to be fixed. He never yelped or tried to bite even when they xrayed him. He would wag his tail at me when I talked to him, but after they xrayed him, he just kinda layed his head on my arm and hand.
Pray for Flash and his Moma... gonna be a rough weekend for both of us.
( and don't you guys laugh at me either!!!)
