What goes down, must come up.

My patients often vomit after we give them their preanesthetic medication. Since they are supposed to be fasted, usually nothing comes up.

But the sweet girl scheduled for a spay today threw something up. "She got breakfast!" my tech said. "I don't think so; it looks like cloth," I said, and went to investigate.














They were from Victoria's Secret. Embarrassing!

Fantastic! Vet medicine is so much fun. I can't wait to hear how the owners reacted.

Thanks for that post! I needed that laugh last night. I can only imagine the conversations going around the treatment area after that little present!

I did not return the panties to the owner. They were pristine - no tooth marks - except for being completely soaked in VOMIT JUICES! I tossed them (and my gloves) in the trash immediately after the picture.

The owner said this dog was stealing her underwear about once a week, despite her putting them in the hamper. I told her put a lock on the hamper, or else pay for an exploratory surgery if she gets obstructed. Plus, the owner said it was getting expensive, losing her nice lingerie...

Wow. Both Paige and Graham were confused upon seeing these undies, upchucked from a dog, and they are asking where is the picture of the dog? I'm sure for anonyminity sake you won't be posting that, but they really wanted me to ask you for it. :)

Maybe she needs to strew some inexpensive panties about. Or do you think by now the dog has developed a taste for the best? :)
