Bailey has been limping for a few weeks now. A couple weeks back we took him into the vet to be checked out. (Bailey has blown out both knees over the past year and had surgery on them both.) The doctor wasn't sure if his body is now rejecting the plates in his knees or if he has a back problem. He was scheduled for an MRI Friday. We took him in at 6:00am and we received the call before 9:00. He didn't do well with the anesthesia. His blood pressure went way down, his heart rate went way up and his temperature went up as well. They couldn't stabilize him so the stopped the procedure. We will try again in two weeks. The poor kid is still limping and must be in alot of pain. Ugh - what's a parent to do? This picture was taken this morning. You can see where they shaved his legs to put the IV's in.
