Our little Angel...

Last tuesday our little Cede was in a freek accident at the vet. I haven't posted it cause it has been so hard to look at pictures. But i know a lot of people love her and want to know what happened, so here goes... Chris came home and found that Tux had eaten 2 candy bars, well chocolate is poison to dogs so he took him in, and had Cede with him. They pumped Tux's stomache and he was alright. Then the vet suggested the we also pump Cede's stomache, insisting that it is "Better to be safe than sorry" she kept saying that over and over so we let them take her back. 45 minutes later they came and told Chris that she didn't make it... He was shocked. This was supposed to be "safe" He came and got me at work and i went and asked what exactly had happened. They gave her peroxide to start the vomitting to get whatever chocolate is in, out. They then stop the vomitting with a shot of Reglan, after that they insert a tube into the stomache and put active charcol in to absorb the rest of what could be in there. The tube was to large for Cede so they took the bite guard off to get it down-instead of getting a smaller tube which they HAVE!- So she did bite the tube and inhaled the charcol which filled ther lungs and killed her. It was the most devastating day. It was her First Birthday to make it worse. This stupid careless vet killed our baby girl and there is nothing we can do. We have even called a lawyer to see if we can do something, but it's not looking promising. Tux has been really sad but is starting to come out of it. Anyway here are some of our favorite pictures of our baby.

That is horrible!!!! I am so sorry. I know how you feel it is still traumatic when you lose a pet. When Roxy died I think I was in mourning for atleast a week OK maybe longer. So sorry. She was a cutie!
