My 3-year-old Mini Rex, Zoe, is going through another CPS (Cow-pile Syndrome) bout; so her gut action is slowing down/"drying out."
This morning, I gave her sub-Q's but didn't realize how far back I'd grabbed her skin (about 2" farther back from the usual point). She wound up bleeding for a bit, so I applied pressure and frequentlywiped the area with rubbing alcohol.
The bleeding has stopped, but the sub-Q's have settled off to her lefthand side, between her shoulder and ribcage region. (I did insert the needleoff-center,a bit to the left.
Could my goof (giving the sub-Q's farther back than normal) cause Zoe any problems that I should be aware of?
Thank you,
Jenk
