My Eden puppy was hit by a car tonight.:tears2:
MrsD was walking her...she got spooked, broke free of her leash, ran in front of a car and was hit. She literaly flew across the road and ended up wedged in a storm drain.
We rushed her to the vet...same vet that takes care of my bunnies.
He said she was very lucky.
She was bright and alert when we got there....but very scared.
She's got a lot of cuts, however there are no broken bones, her heart and blood pressure are good, he can't see any internal bleeding, her lungs are good, he couldn't tell if her spleen was damaged, and he was having a hard time seeing if her bladder was okay (possibilty that it could be ruptured).
They're keeping her in intensive care overnight, giving her sub-q, pain meds, antibioticsand constant observation.
With a little luck and a lot of prayers she might be able to come home tomorrow.
MrsD and I are basket cases right now.
We can use all of the prayers that can be spared.
