Question...
I took my Harley into the vet for a check up. He is
sick but we are not sure what it exactly is. He has
been on prednisone for quite some time now. The vet
tried to draw blood but his blood pressure was low and
they didn't get anything.
They want to put him under anestisha to try to draw
blood. My question is what difference does this make?
He wasn't squirmy or uncooperative in any way. He laid
there patiently until they were done sticking him.
When I got him back he was a little foamy around the
mouth. He only does this when he gets stressed/upset
or when he is having an episode.
Any insight would be appreciated...
