My poor Riggins stomach seemed a little bloated tonight. It kind of felt a little firm to me but the part that bothered me most was how uncomfortable he was. He would let out a little moan when I pushed on his tummy. I took him to bed and normally he will just lay down. This time he would lay down, get up and move, lay down, get up....over and over. So I called the ER after reading up about bloat. They told me to bring him in immediately. They said bloat is incredibly serious and can potentially be life threatening. So I rushed him in. The dr felt his tummy and Rigs let out a big moan. He immediately took two X-rays. The dr said his stomach looked pretty good but he did have some gas in there on one side. He was concerned enough to keep him. He said he just wasn't comfortable sending him home. He wanted to watch him over night and repeat the X-ray later to compare. I am praying that it is just gas but I'm so worried. 😞 It's 4am here and I haven't even shut my eyes once. I lost both of my Boston Terriers within the last 9 months. I lost my 8 yr old BT back in July from seizures caused by a brain tumor. Then 3 weeks ago I lost my 12 yr old BT. I am positive that he died of a broken heart after he lost his sister. I cannot bare to even think about anything happening to my Riggins. 😢 And it's also his 1st birthday today. I just want me baby boy home with me!
