We had a feature on sweet Mabel last month, so you may remember she presented with GDV, or bloat. GDV is a very serious emergency that requires immediate veterinary help.
It is very scary and often very sudden, so we wanted to make sure everyone knows that we do offer prophylactic gastropexy: a surgery that works to help prevent GDV from occurring later in life. If you have a deep-chested, larger breed dog that you are considering having spayed or neutered, please know that the surgeries can be performed on the same day.
Neo, another one of our good canine friends and one of the bestest boys around, can vouch for this: he had a gastropexy done the day of his neuter recently. See the article below for more details. Please call 519-972-9000 anytime for a quote, or if you have any questions.
