I want to say a huge thankyou to Allison at Waggly Tails Dog Grooming if it wasn’t for her quick action my dog would have died!
This storey is why everyone should get routine grooming for there dogs!! I took my dog Sadie in for her regular grooming on Tuesday and i got a call from Allison saying she was concerned for Sadie’s life and when she had her coat trimmed down she noticed bruising and red spots all over her body and that she had seen this condition before called thrombocytopenia and that it could be fatal if left untreated and that she should be seen by the vet asap! I was in shock!! I would have never noticed because of her long coat and i really could not believe what was happening!! I called around to different vets to finally get her seen and sure enough that is what she was diagnosed with and her platelet levels were at shockingly low level of 15000 and that if we didn’t get her treated right away we would lose her! So far she is responding to the meds but not out of the woods yet but im so relieved Allison was able to notice what was happening and we were able to get her in to be seen and if it wasn’t for her being groomed i probably wouldn’t of noticed the bruising under her coat and she would of passed on!! So please get your doggies groomed you just never know!! Thanks again to Allison for saving my dogs life!! Picture of Sadie the day after her groom at the vet!
